Nottingham Forest will hope for improvements as they host Italian club Fiorentina on Tuesday. This match between the ‘Tricky Trees’ and ‘I Viola’ at City Ground comes with our prediction of under 2.5 goals.
This is Nottingham’s sixth friendly of the preseason, and they have one more against Al Qadisiya after this fixture before their Premier League starts. For Fiorentina, this is their fourth friendly of the preseason, and they will follow this match with a game against Manchester United.
A 1-0 loss to Birmingham in their latest friendly at the weekend continued Forest’s winless sequence in their preparations for the campaign. They have now failed to win any of their five friendlies (D3, L2).
With only one goal scored in those five games, it is evident that Forest need a huge turnaround in terms of output to change their fortunes. Interestingly, all three draws have been 0-0 scores, so there aren’t many problems with their backline.
Fiorentina come here after a 2-0 loss to Leicester in their latest friendly. Quite interestingly, it continues their tryst, with only one team finding goals in their friendlies – all three of their pre-season games so far following that trend.
New coach Stefano Pioli, who returns for his second spell, will look to get back to winning ways against English clubs before heading to Manchester.

Our Nottingham Forest vs Fiorentina Prediction
There’s a sense of unease in the Nottingham Forest camp as they search for goals and a turnaround in the pre-season. Just one goal in five friendlies so far is an indicator of how poor their season has been so far. They are due a good performance, although Fiorentina is a tough opponent, even if it’s a friendly. Interestingly, the Italians are going through a round of indifferent performances themselves.
This match could end up being on the lower side of action, and our Nottingham Forest vs Fiorentina prediction is under 2.5.
