  • Competition: Premier League
  • Date: Saturday, 7th December 2024
  • Kickoff: 17:30 UK / 18:30 CET
  • Venue: Old Trafford (Manchester)

The 2024/25 season could be the worst in the club's history. It is still too early, but after 14 rounds, the Red Devils are only 11th with 19 points from 14 matches. However, we must admit that Manchester United have been playing better since the manager, Erik Ten Hag, left the team. Since sacking, Manchester United were on a run of seven games without defeat, but on Wednesday, they lost 2-0 on the road against Arsenal. The Red Devils were outplayed in that match, but their recent good run gives them hope that the future is a little brighter. 

After finishing 16th and 17th in two seasons since returning to the Premier League, Nottingham Forest started brilliantly in the current year and were even a top-four team for some time. However, after three defeats in the last four matches, Nottingham Forest have fallen to the sixth position on the table. In the previous game, they lost 3-0 on the road against Manchester City. Pep Guardiola's struggled recently, but they completely outplayed Nuno Espirito Santo's team. 

Manchester United vs Nottingham Forest pick: Man Utd to win

Manchester United are playing well at Old Trafford lately, where they have four wins in the previous four matches. On the other hand, Nottingham Forest struggled during the last weeks as they have a 2:9 goal difference in the previous four games. We should expect Manchester United to win against Nottingham Forest on Saturday evening.
