Nottingham Forest vs Sunderland Prediction, Odds and Picks for Tomorrow, 09/27/25

Nottingham Forest are going through a transition as they adjust to life under new manager Ange Postecoglou, and their wait for their first win under the Australian could go on as they entertain Premier League new boys Sunderland on Saturday. There were echoes of the drama that tended to follow their new manager during his time at Tottenham when the Tricky trees were stung by 2 injury-time goals by Championship club Swansea in the EFL Cup, and ties with Burnley and Real Betis in their first European game since 1996 mean that first victory has so far proved elusive. We should witness a Forest team that are a lot more adventurous than they were under Postecoglou’s predecessor Nuno Espirito Santo, and as they look to improve upon a home record that has seen them score in just 2 of their last 6 matches at the City Ground, visitors Sunderland may like their chances of gaining a positive result.

Many believed the Black Cats would struggle in this season’s top flight, but the northern club have been competitive upon their return to the big time. An opening 3-0 victory at home to West Ham was an excellent result, even if the Hammers’ worries have deepened in the meantime, and while Sunderland followers will be anxious for them to score their first goal on the road, a goalless draw at FA Cup winners Crystal Palace was a fine result. It could be a good time for them to be playing a team getting used to a new regime, and there looks to be some value in backing the draw in Saturday’s contest.
