"The Red Devils are back on the road! Manchester United's rebuilding program is beginning to take shape, and the first match of the league restart is against Nottingham Forest. Despite the departure of their signature striker, Crowley, United's performance was more cohesive and disciplined. With the fervent support of the fans at home in Otford, the team tends to go above and beyond, and a big win is on the cards for this match, with United -0.5 or 2 goals, the upper handicap is worth a punt. (Now 621 Wednesday at 4 a.m. live)
Manchester United have clamped down on player discipline on and off the field since Tannhäuser took over, even for big names like Crowe. The Portuguese superstar announced his release from his contract last month, but his performances have been sluggish this season and have been a source of problems for the team. However, his departure has had little impact on the campaign and has boosted morale. Strikers such as Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and newcomer Canazo have stood out and injected long overdue energy into United.
Nottingham Forest suffer back-to-back defeats
United's pressing style of play is now becoming more sophisticated, and even though stalwarts Hua Lani and Lisindo Martinez are still not fully recovered from the World Cup final, they were able to rely on their overall defense to minimize Forest's threat in the game at Ottofford. United have won five straight home games in all competitions, with four of those victories by more than one goal. After warming up from last week's EFL Cup elimination at Bonny's, a better performance is expected in this match.
Forest are currently in a relegation crisis, and although there was an upturn in the league before the break, scoring has been largely dependent on home advantage. This season's away record has been dismal, with only 1 draw and 4 losses in the last 5 league games, including a 0-6 defeat against Manchester City, a 0-4 loss to Leeds United, and a 0-5 loss to Arsenal, leaving them defenseless against the top teams. The last time United played Forest in the Premier League was in 1999, when they won 8-1, so a big win in this game is highly likely, and the upper hand is not to be missed!
