The English Premier League game between Nottingham Forest and Newcastle United features as Bettingpro.com.au’s best bet for Friday March 17.

Bet Of The Day March 17 – read on below for our reasoning behind today’s best bet.

Key Points

Forest are unbeaten in their last nine EPL games
Forest have taken points from Man City, Liverpool & Chelsea at home in that period
Forest have collected 20 of their 26 points this season at home
Newcastle have won just two of their last nine games
Newcastle have scored just one goal in their last four EPL road games
Newcastle haven’t beaten Forest on the road since 1999

We’re off to the Premier League for today’s best bet as Nottingham Forest look to continue their strong home form when they play host to Newcastle United.

Forest may be battling to avoid relegation, just two points away from safety coming into this encounter, but their record at home has been outstanding this season.

Indeed, 20 of Forest’s 26 points this season have come at the City Ground.

Forest are unbeaten in nine consecutive Premier League fixtures at their home ground and have taken points from Man City, Liverpool and Chelsea in that period.

With this in mind, $2.25 for Forest to either win or draw this game looks solid value as we aim for our fourth #BOTD in a row here.

Newcastle’s form has also tailed off over the last couple of months, although that could be partially blamed on the team reaching the EFL Cup final, which may have served as a distraction.

Nevertheless, Newcastle have won just two of their last nine games, while they have managed just one goal in their last four EPL away games.

Newcastle also haven’t defeated Forest on the road since 1999.

Forest are a different beast at home and given Newcastle aren’t travelling as well as they were earlier in the season, they are a good chance to grab at least a point here.
