Nottingham Forest welcome Coventry City to the City Ground in Premier League action, with a wide range of pre-match and in-play betting markets available through Ladbrokes.

Bet on Nottingham Forest vs Coventry City with Ladbrokes
Nottingham Forest's season has been a mixed one so far, but last weekend's victory at Villa Park provided a major boost. That result lifted Forest into 11th place in the Premier League table and demonstrated the quality they possess when everything clicks.
Prior to that victory, Forest had drawn with Liverpool and Tottenham after opening the season with defeat to Leeds United. While they remain a work in progress under Oliver Glasner, the signs are improving and another win here would help maintain that momentum.
Coventry, meanwhile, have found the step up from the Championship challenging during the opening weeks of the campaign. The Sky Blues won the Championship title last season, but are still waiting for their first points and first goal since returning to the Premier League.
Despite those struggles, Coventry will believe their performances have been more competitive than the results suggest. They now face another difficult assignment against a Forest side full of confidence following their success at Villa Park.
Nottingham Forest vs Coventry City Odds
Forest are likely to attract strong support given their home advantage and confidence-boosting victory over Aston Villa.
Coventry will be hoping to change the narrative surrounding their season and finally get off the mark, but they face a difficult challenge against an opposition that appears to be moving in the right direction.
The contrast between a Forest side aiming to climb into the top half and a Coventry team looking for their first positive result should create several interesting betting angles.
