Nottingham Forest vs Crystal Palace Bet Builder Tips
The bet builder tips from Macca for Nottingham Forest vs Crystal Palace feature Chris Wood to score and Alex Moreno to commit a foul.
At the time of publishing it is a best price of 10/3 with Sky Bet.
Chris Wood has scored four goals in seven Premier League games this season, including one against Chelsea. Averaging 0.53 xG per game and on penalties, his odds of 3.50 to score offer great value, especially with Forest as home favorites.
Bonus tip: Wood’s strong aerial threat (136 headed shots in his career) makes a headed shot/goal worth considering.
Alex Moreno has committed a foul in all his starts this season. Up against Sarr or Nketiah, both drawing over two fouls per game, this adds solid value to the bet builder.
