As said above, Forest’s form is a bit patchy of late with two losses, two draws and a win. On the road it’s a little better with two wins, two draws and one loss. They’re scoring plenty of goals on the road too, scoring in all of their previous five away matches and have scored at least one goal in 13 of their 15 most recent away matches. Both Teams to Score is 1.80.

Unfortunately, as you can see from the image taken from the Bet Dynamo Insights Page this offers no value so it might be something to take inplay when it reaches better odds.
