Nottingham Forest vs West Ham Bet Builder Tips: Sunday August 14th

With another weekend of Premier League action on the horizon, it also means that our Nottingham Forest vs West Ham bet builder tips are not far away either. Tips that will focus on whether Steve Cooper’s men can get off the mark in the top flight.

While they will also focus on whether West Ham can open their own account for the season and after suffering a 2-0 loss to Manchester City, they will look to bounce back at the City Ground.

Nottingham Forest vs West Ham Preview

Sunday, August 14th, 16.30 (UK)

After suffering a rather sobering defeat away at Newcastle last weekend, Nottingham Forest’s learning curve in the Premier League has just become a lot steeper. Because for all the optimism that came with promotion, last Saturday offered a heavy dose of reality.

However, that defeat at St James’ Park is not going to define Forest’s season and with Steve Cooper being one of the more active managers in this summer transfer window, he will hope that new faces breathe new life into the squad.

While he will also hope that the club’s fervent fanbase play their part and if last season’s play-off winners are to stay up, then their home ground must become a fortress. One that on Sunday welcomes West Ham to the City Ground.

Who themselves suffered defeat in the opening weekend of this new season, as they suffered a 2-0 reverse at the hands of Manchester City. However, there could be an element of saving grace after that defeat.

If only because David Moyes can consider one of the hardest matches of the campaign already ticked off. This means, in essence, his and West Ham’s pursuit of a top-six finish gets underway at the weekend.

While it does so with the potential boost of a returning player and although Lukasz Fabianski limped off with a dead leg at the London Stadium almost a week ago, he looks set to return for the trip to Nottingham.

Nottingham Forest vs West Ham Bet Builder

With both teams suffering 2-0 defeats in the opening weekend, neither will want to record a second successive loss at the start of this new campaign. While that feeling will arguably resonate more with Nottingham Forest.

Because with points at home usually being the difference between relegation and survival, manager Steve Cooper will be fully aware of how important Sunday’s clash already is. It may only be week two, but Forest can ill afford a reverse at the weekend.

However, I am optimistic for their chances against West Ham and although I am not going to fully hang my hat on a home win, I do think the Hammers themselves will fail to get maximum points. Which is why I have made good use of the double chance market.

A Forest win or draw gets us underway and for those who do think Steve Cooper’s men will get the job done at the end of the week, you can back last season’s play-off winners to win at odds of 4.20.

Because my double chance pick has gone against the grain, it allows me to play rather safer with my other bet builder selections. Starting with total goals and with the potential for this to be a rather tight affair, I have opted for no more than two.

While two is also the magic number when it comes to the number of total cards that I expect to be shown. This means when you add these three components to a maximum of 11 total corners, it makes a rather tempting bet builder at odds of 9.00.

  • Nottingham Forest win or draw
  • Under 3 total goals
  • Under 3 total cards
  • Under 12 total corners

Bet Builder odds: 9.00

WHAT IS A BET BUILDER?

A bet builder is a kind of accumulator bet solely focussed on one match. A standard acca features multiple selections across different selections combined together into one bet. If one selection loses, the whole bet loses. A bet builder is similar but each selection is placed on the same match. Similar to the American prop bet, the bet builder goes into detail on a single match. Common selections include match outcome, total goals, cards, corners, and players to score.
