Match betting 

Nottingham Forest's home matches in the Premier League are almost always low-scoring. Under 2.5 has landed in nine of their last 10 matches at the City Ground. This is no coincidence: in the same sample, the hosts scored no more than one goal in nine of 10, while their opponents were also limited to one goal in nine of 10. Matches at this stadium are consistently low-scoring. 

Leeds United are not accustomed to creating many chances away from home. United have registered no more than four shots on target in eight of their last 10 away matches. Even when shots come in at Forest's goal, that volume rarely produces several goals. 

There is one concerning but isolated fact against this picture: Leeds United won their final friendly against Augsburg 4:0. However, that was just one unofficial match, and it does not fit the team's away profile in the league. It is more a reason not to call the under inevitable than an argument to expect another such evening from Leeds United. 

We should not forget the price either. Odds of 1.90 on under 2.5 do not offer a huge margin, but they look fair given it has landed nine times in 10 at the same ground. Oliver Glasner's debut at Nottingham Forest adds uncertainty, but low-scoring home matches do not disappear because of a managerial change. 

It all comes down to one scenario: the hosts are unlikely to score more than once at home, Leeds United will not create a constant stream of chances on target away from home, and there is no reason to expect three goals here. That is why we are backing the under.
