Utrecht and Nottingham Forest will face off on Thursday evening in the UEFA Europa League group stage at Stadion Galgenwaard, Utrecht. Utrecht will be desperate to win at home and improve their chances of qualifying for the playoffs. They are yet to win a single game, sitting in 32nd place with just a point from five matches. Their last assignment in this competition ended in a 2-1 loss to Real Betis on the road.
Nottingham Forest, meanwhile, have turned around their fortunes since Sean Dyche took over in October this year. He became the third manager to oversee Forest this season, following the departure of Ange Postecoglou, who was sacked just after eight games. Impressively, the new manager is yet to lose a game in Forest colors, with their latest assignment ending in a 3-0 win over Malmö. They are deservedly the favorites to win this match.

Our Utrecht vs Nottingham Forest Prediction
Utrecht will want to attack Forest from the first whistle and secure a vital win. They will know that nothing short of three points will improve their odds of participating in the playoffs. The good news for them is that they have looked solid at home in this competition, drawing 1-1 with Porto and losing 1-0 to leaders, Olympique Lyon. However, Forest will also want to grab the full points and avoid a tense finish in the group phase. They have won two of their last three games in this competition while keeping clean sheets. We expect a close game, with the hosts forcing a 1-1 tie.
