The match has not been played. This is not a tip: the model turns the chances both sides create and concede into probabilities, and it is wrong regularly.
A slight edge to Nottingham Forest: 48% against 28%. Attack against defence: level, 1.57 and 1.60 expected goals a match. Read the table with care: Manchester City have taken 5.4 points more than their play deserved, so their position flatters them.
