Nottingham Forest Vs Fiorentina Match Info And Same Game Parlay For Club Friendly

Start

Here at FootItalia, we have the Nottingham Forest vs Fiorentina odds, match info and a same game parlay to consider for Tuesday’s club friendly. 

The Viola head into the game having succumbed to EFL Championship side Leicester 2-0 on Sunday. Jordan Ayew and Abdul Fatawa scored in the first-half at the King Power.

Prior to that, Stefano Pioli’s side ran out comfortable winners against Carrarese and Grosseto in July. Today, they continue their tour of England to face Forest before taking on Man United at Old Trafford on the weekend.

Nottingham Forest Vs Fiorentina Same Game Parlay – Three Picks

Ahead of the club friendly on Tuesday at the City Ground, we have identified three outcomes that can be wagered into a same game parlay.

Offshore sportsbooks favor a Nottingham Forest win but having no victories to their name in the off-season certainly gives Fiorentina a great chance of success.

Interestingly, this will be the first ever meeting between the two sides. Although it is a club friendly, it’ll give a strong indication of what to expect from both sides in their respective leagues this season.

Fiorentina To Win To Nil

A brave pick considering Nottingham Forest have been defensively solid in pre-season. However, the Premier League side has been toothless in front of goal.

The only time they made the back of the net ripple was in the 3-1 defeat to Fulham. The Tricky Trees failed to net against Chesterfield, Estoril Praia and most recently Birmingham.

With the above in mind, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Fiorentina grind out a victory whilst keeping a clean sheet to their name. Especially with David De Gea between the sticks and Moise Kean up top.

Under 1.5 Goals

Friendly games can be notoriously difficult to predict for a number of factors. Teams don’t generally go full throttle, new signings are still bedding in and head coaches often rotate the starting XI.

Avoiding injuries to key players is also something management will be desperate to avoid in the off-season. Therefore, we are predicting a tight contest with just a single goal deciding it for the visitors.

Nottingham Forest appears low on confidence and we expect Fiorentina to take advantage of the Premier League side’s poor form.

Moise Kean To Score First

Fiorentina’s star man Moise Kean is expected to start on Tuesday having been benched for the Leicester game on the weekend.

The Azzurri international bagged 25 times in all competitions last season and has two goals to his name in pre-season. He is primed to feature from the off and has what it takes to breach a stubborn Forest backline.

Kean struggled whilst playing for Everton between 2019-2022 but his time in Florence already indicates he has what it takes to mark his return to England with another strike.
