The last time the teams met in 1999, Manchester United defeated Nottingham Forest 8-1. Are the Foresters ready for revenge after 23 years or will the Red Devils be stronger again? Betting company Olimpbet talks about Manchester United’s winning streak, Nottingham Forest’s statistics in away matches and offers several bets on the match.
In the first match after the break for the World Cup, Manchester United beat Burnley (2: 0) in the English League Cup. The goals were scored by Christian Eriksen and Marcus Rashford, who returned from Qatar. The players managed to recover and had a brilliant meeting. Why don’t they score in the Premier League? You can bet on Eriksen for 4.70 and Rashford for 2.25.
After defeating Burnley, the Red Devils extended their winning streak at home to five matches. In this stretch, Manchester United scored 12 goals and conceded only two. In the match against the outsider of the Premier League, the wards of Erik ten Hag should not have any problems.
Nottingham Forest carried out a massive transfer campaign in the summer and bought players for 162 million euros. Even Manchester City spent 22 million less. But the money invested did not pay off. After 15 rounds, the Foresters are in 18th place in the Premier League.
Particularly bad is Nottingham Forest away. Steve Cooper’s men have drawn twice and lost five times, scored one goal and conceded 19. The away game will be a difficult test for Nottingham Forest.
In line Olimpbet you can bet on a Manchester United victory in regular time for 1.34, on a draw – for 5.59, on a Nottingham Forest victory – for 9.25. The Red Devils are in the top 5 and are fighting for the Champions League while the Foresters dig in in the relegation zone.
You can bet on the victory of Manchester United with a handicap (-1.5) for 1.93. This rate has gone in four of the last five home matches of the Mancunians. But you can take a chance and bet on the victory of the “Red Devils” with a handicap (-2) for 2.62.
Action “Maximum Drive” from Olimpbet comes to an end! The betting company raffled six cars: five Toyota Camry and one Land Cruiser. In the final Olimpbet draw, Mikhail Mossakovsky and Olga Buzova will determine who will get the super prize – Mercedes G-Class! Tune in to the broadcast on December 28 at 20:00 and follow the fate of the premium car.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino He commented on World Cup ticket prices, saying they reflected “absolutely insane” demand for next summer’s tournament:
“We have six to seven million tickets and in 15 days we received 150 million ticket requests. So every day we have 10 million requests. This shows how strong the World Cup is.”
FIFA has sold just 44 million tickets in almost 100 years of the World Cup. So we were able to sell tickets for the 300th anniversary of the World Cup in two weeks. Just imagine. “This is absolutely crazy.”
Infantino also noted that funds from ticket sales would be reinvested into world football, but did not specify a specific amount:
“The important thing is that the revenue from this goes back into football around the world. If it weren’t for FIFA, there would be no football in 150 countries of the world. Football exists thanks to the revenues we get from the World Cup, and we reinvest that into football around the world.”
Previously, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer called on FIFA to further reduce 2026 World Cup ticket prices.

This status was given to Polesie’s winger Alexey Gutsulyak, who scored 5 goals and made 3 assists.
Gutsulyak’s assistance became important in the decisive matches of the autumn, when the player scored a goal and made an assist in the match against Azerbaijan, and also scored and assisted in the match against Iceland.
