Nottingham Forest vs Man United live stream, TV channel, lineups, betting odds for Premier League match

The Sporting News
 

Manchester United will be looking to give themselves some breathing space in the Premier League top-four battle this weekend as they head to struggling Nottingham Forest.

The Red Devils were wounded by that result both in terms of morale and personnel: first-choice centre-backs Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane each suffered injuries in that game, and Ten Hag's squad is beginning to be stretched to its limit.

However, hosts Forest are without a win in their past nine Premier League matches, and Newcastle United's 3-0 loss to Aston Villa means Man United will hope to take a further step towards a Champions League return at the City Ground.

Here's all the key information on the match, including kickoff time, live streaming and TV channels, lineups, and betting odds.

What time is Nottingham Forest vs Man United kickoff?

Nottingham Forest vs Man United lineups

Steve Cooper is continuing to fight against an injury crisis as his team battle Premier League relegation, with the hosts potentially missing 11 first-team players this weekend.

Nottingham Forest subs: Hennessey (GK), Freuler, Ayew, Lingard, Surridge, Dennis, McKenna, Danilo

Ten Hag is facing injury concerns of his own. Argentina international Lisandro Martinez is out for the season with a broken metatarsal, while Raphael Varane is facing weeks on the sidelines.

Luke Shaw and Scott McTominay are expected to return to the squad, but top scorer Marcus Rashford remains out with a groin problem.

Man United starting lineup (4-2-3-1): De Gea (GK) — Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw — Casemiro, Fernandes — Antony, Sabitzer, Sancho — Martial

Nottingham Forest vs Man United prediction, betting odds

Despite their slip against Sevilla, United are in decent overall Premier League form, and they will be confident of securing a win on the road against a Forest side in freefall.

Cooper has been backed by the club's ownership, but his team are right in the middle of a relegation battle with eight games of the campaign left to play.

Prediction: Man United to win 2-1
