Midtjylland are looking to cause another upset at the City Ground so 7/5 on the double chance looks appealing with William Hill.
@Footy_Tipster gives his best predictions ahead of this round of fixtures in the UEFA Europa League..
The UEFA Europa League returns this week with clubs from across Europe looking to fulfil their European dreams with the journey to Istanbul continuing here for two sides.
Vitor Pereira will be hoping to get his first home win as Nottingham Forest welcome Midtjylland to the City Ground on Thursday evening in the UEFA Europa League.
Now, let’s take a closer look at some Europa League odds and betting angles for this fixture:
Nottingham Forest v Midtjylland – Thursday, 8pm
Punters can bet on Nottingham Forest v Midtjylland with William Hill
- Nottingham Forest had to come through a two-legged affair against Fenerbache to set up this clash with Midtjylland but their first leg victory remains their only win under Vitor Pereira although they will take some confidence from their 2-2 draw away at Manchester City in their last outing.
- The Tricky Trees are in a real relegation battle in the Premier League so this fixture might be a good distraction but they’ll need to improve on home soil if they are to progress any further in this competition, they’ve won just one of their last eight games at the City Ground, they are odds on at 11/20 for victory on Thursday with the leading bookmaker.
- This one could be a goal-fest given four of Nottingham Forest’s last five games have produced at least three goals, whilst these two sides produced five goals in their meeting here back in October.
——————————– - Midtjylland had an incredible league phase campaign with the Danish side finishing third overall and head to the City Ground for the next time this season having not lost a competitive fixture in 2026 (W5, D3).
- The Wolves will have fond memories of their trip here in October with the Danish side upsetting the odds with a 3-2 victory, William Hill have priced up the away side at 19/5 on the ‘2 up’ market which could be value given it occurred in that last meeting.
- Seven of Midtjylland’s last eight competitive away games featured over 2.5 goals, i think goals is definitely the way to go in this fixture but don’t underestimate this Midtjylland side as they’ll hope to defy the odds once again.
Prediction: Midtjylland Or Draw (Double Chance 7/5), Nottingham Forest 2-2 Midtjylland (16/1).
