Nottingham Forest Vs FC Midtjylland Betting Tips: 7/1 Europa League Bet Builder

Nottingham Forest host Danish side FC Midtjylland in the Europa League on Thursday night, and you can back our betting tips with this 7/1 treble.

It was a tale of two halves for Forest in their European opener last week.

After conceding early at Real Betis, they responded in kind to take the lead thanks to a quick-fire brace from Igor Jesus.

But having failed to grab a third, they were pegged back when former Manchester United winger Antony equalised five minutes from time.

On the domestic front, Forest have been poor.

They have not won since the opening day of the Premier League, and were knocked out of the EFL Cup by Championship side Swansea.

Manager Nuno Espirito Santo was sacked, replaced by Ange Postecoglou.

But Big Ange will need to improve results quickly if Forest want to avoid being dragged into a relegation scrap.

Thursday’s opponents, FC Midtjylland, are battling at the other end of their domestic league.

The Danish side are second after 10 games, two points off the top, and recorded a comfortable 2-0 victory over Sturm Graz in their opening European fixture.

Looking ahead to this one, Nottingham Forest are 4/9 favourites with most football betting sites, while FC Midtjylland are priced at around 21/4.

Nottingham Forest Vs FC Midtjylland Betting Tips

• Igor Jesus to score any time @ 1/1
• Nottingham Forest & YES – Result/ Both Teams To Score @ 7/4
• Over 3 cards @ 5/6

Igor Jesus to score any time @ 1/1

Up first, we are backing Igor Jesus to shine once again for Forest in Europe.

The Brazilian forward grabbed a brace last time out in this competition, having also scored two in Forest’s 3-2 League Cup defeat at Swansea.

He was excellent against Real Betis, and we think he has a great chance of scoring another on Thursday.

Nottingham Forest & YES – Result/ Both Teams To Score @ 7/4

Next up, we believe Forest will have enough quality to get the job done, especially on home soil.

But with their difficult start to the Premier League campaign, they have shown enough defensive frailties to suggest they won’t keep a clean sheet.

Forest have conceded at least once in every game this season, while Midtjylland have scored an impressive 25 in just 10 Danish league games this season – the most of any side.

Over 3 cards @ 5/6

And finally, we expect to see a good few cards at the City Ground.

Both sides will be desperate for a win to maintain their unbeaten starts in this competition, so will be playing right on the edge.

We have seen referees across European competitions not afraid to dish out cards swiftly this season, suggesting a UEFA directive to be more direct when addressing issues such as dissent and time-wasting.

All of this will likely factor in us seeing more cards across the board in European games this year.
