Nottingham Forest v Burnley boost: Get Awoniyi and Gibbs-White to have 1+ shot on target each at 3/1 with Sky Bet

Nottingham Forest host Burnley in the Premier League's final match of the weekend at the City Ground on Monday night, with the home side looking to break into the top half of the table, while Burnley seek their first points of the season.

Sky Bet are providing boosted odds for Nottingham Forest duo Taiwo Awoniyi and Morgan Gibbs-White to have a shot on target each, which is now 3/1 up from 6/4, which can be added straight into your bet slip here.

Nottingham Forest will be pretty content with how their second season back in the Premier League has started, having picked up two wins from their opening four games.

Steve Cooper's side have had to play Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea, all away from home, in their first four matches, managing to collect all three points from their trip to Stamford Bridge just before the international break.

Monday night will be just their second home match of the season in the league, having won their opening game at the City Ground 2-1 against the newly promoted Sheffield United.

The weekend's Premier League results leave Forest 12th in the table ahead of their match on Monday night, meaning that just a draw will see them break into the top eight, while a win by two goals or more will take them into seventh place.

Burnley's start to life as a Premier League side has been a tough one, with many expecting good things after they ran away with the Championship title last season, racking up over 100 points and finishing 10 points clear of the next best team.

Vincent Kompany's side have tasted defeat in all three of their league matches so far, though they have all been against tough opposition; their home losses to Manchester City and Tottenham have been against the teams currently occupying the top two in the table.

The Clarets' previous away league match came in a 3-0 defeat to Aston Villa, and, after a two-week break, the Lancashire side will be hopeful of a much more positive result in the East Midlands on Monday night, knowing that a win will take them out of the relegation zone.

The two teams have already met this season at the City Ground, where Burnley picked up their first and so far only victory of the season as they progressed to the third round of the Carabao Cup at Nottingham Forest's expense with a 1-0 win.

That win three weeks ago means that Forest are now winless in their last seven matches against the Clarets in all competitions dating back to 2012.
