‘New’ kick-off time for Nottingham Forest vs Everton live: Stream link, TV channel, team news, prediction
Nottingham Forest’s quest to firm up their top-four (five) plans faces a tough-test in like-minded Everton at the City Ground on Saturday.
Forest’s 57 points are good for third on the Premier League table, and the Tricky Trees hold a five-point cushion on sixth-place Manchester City. Their remaining fixture list bodes well for Nuno Espirito Santo’s goal of reaching the Champions League.
Everton have been a baffling side this side of the Festive Fixtures. They’ve only lost one Premier League match in their last 11 outings, going 4W-6D-1L since January 19, but they’re also winless in their last six.
The Toffees remain in a tough run of fixtures. Having lost to Everton and drawn Arsenal in their last two matches, Everton’s match versus Forest precedes fixtures with Man City and Chelsea.

Nottingham Forest vs Everton prediction
So… who wants the ball? Both Forest and Everton are comfortable playing a defense-first approach but both have some terrific attackers including recently-returned Toffees winger Dwight McNeil. Forest could be without Chris Wood in addition to Taiwo Awoniyi and that means more speed and flash over power up top. That may actually play into their hands against James Tarkowski, Jarrad Branthwaite, and Everton’s physical defense.
Forest 1-1 Everton.
