Everton manager Frank Lampard is without Yerry Mina (ankle injury), Dominic Calvert-Lewin (knee injury), and Ben Godfrey (fractured fibula). There is only one fitness issue from a bunch of players who are generally in good health that Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper must deal with.
Omar Richards is unable to play in this game due to a fractured leg. In our opinion, Nottingham Forest has the ability to score a goal against this Everton team, but it’s unlikely that they’ll score as many as they might allow. We predict that Everton will win this one with a score of 2-1 after goals from both teams. This could easily go either way.
