Manchester City -270 | Nottingham Forest +740 | Draw +420<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\nManchester City continued their epic collapse on Sunday with a 2-0 loss against title rivals Liverpool, if it can still be called a title race with a current 11-point gap now separating the two sides in the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Manchester City haven\u2019t won a game since the end of October in what has been a shocking turnaround for them across the last month, with manager Pep Guardiola seemingly feeling the heat also as he allowed Liverpool fans to rattle him with jibes after Sunday\u2019s loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
The Cityzens will get a chance to right that ship however in midweek against a team in Nottingham Forest that they\u2019ve won three of the last four head-to-heads against, including shutting down Forest completely in all three of those wins as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
The Tricky Trees have been playing much better than anyone expected however this season, sitting just one point off City in the table and could sensationally leapfrog them here with a win, a result that would no doubt prove a cherry on top current Forest manager Nuno Espirito Santo\u2019s cake, especially with his history against Pep at his former club Wolves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Nottingham Forest have been gaining those positive results this season largely based on the back of a watertight defense, a defense that sits second in the league overall this season in defensive xGA, both outright and on the road, as well as three of their last four matches witnessing at least one of the teams failing to find the back of the net also.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
This could be a fairly dour affair here on Wednesday given all of City's current issues, plus Forest's under-appreciated defense this season. We're taking the Under as a result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Premier League Prediction: Under 3 (-115)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\nFulham vs Brighton | December 5 | 2:30PM ET<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Fulham +130 | Brighton +195 | Draw +270<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\nHigh-flying Brighton were held to a surprising stalemate over the weekend against bottom-of-the-table Southampton in a game the Seagulls almost went completely to sleep in after taking the early lead in the first half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brighton tried to rally late on however amassing over double the number of attempts on goal than Southampton managed, but were fortunate not to lose outright after Cameron Archer\u2019s disallowed goal for offside mid-way through the second half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
It was a similar tale for the Cottagers on Sunday also, albeit a bit more of an upbeat one, as they held an inconsistent Tottenham side to a 1-1 draw in North London, a result that keeps Fulham locked in a highly competitive midtable grouping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Fulham have provided a real thorn in Brighton\u2019s proverbial side across recent seasons, winning four of the last five meetings between the two sides in this venue, so it\u2019s no surprise to see the Cottagers go in as marginal favorites once again for this one, an assessment we\u2019re in full agreement with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
However, instead of trusting Fulham to deliver an outright win on Thursday, something they\u2019ve done in just two of their last seven matches overall, we\u2019re instead going to buy this line up to a straight pick \u2018em (draw no bet line) at a current price of -145 as insurance here in a game we don\u2019t envision Fulham losing in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
