Nottingham Forest will host Newcastle United in an all-Premier League sides’ encounter in the League Cup second round on Wednesday. As the two sides look to extend on positive starts to the season, here’s our preview and prediction of the match.
The hosts are coming from a 1-0 win against Southampton, building on their opening 1-1 draw with Bournemouth. The last time the two teams met in this competition, it was at this same venue in 2018.
Nottingham Forest emerged 3-1 winners in one of the traditionally high-scoring matches between these teams. They’ve gone on to lose their last two home matches against Newcastle United.
Two seasons ago Nottingham Forest reached the League Cup semis and will want to engineer a similar run. However, they come here on three straight losses in the competition.
Newcastle United have dominated most of the recent meetings with Nottingham Forest, winning three of the last four. Like their hosts, they are also unbeaten in their opening two matches of the season. The most recent of those needed The Magpies to rise from a goal down to draw 1-1 with Bournemouth.
As they aren’t having European assignments this season, Newcastle will look to give more effort in the cup matches. Two seasons ago they reached the League Cup final, only to fall to Manchester United.
Heading into this game, Newcastle United will have the favorites’ feel, having lost only once in the last seven matches. In the League Cup, they have two losses in 10 matches, and one of them was through post-match penalties.
