Sunderland vs Nottingham Forest guide: Sky Bet's key markets for tonight's Premier League clash at the Stadium of Light

An intriguing Premier League clash awaits this evening as Sunderland host Nottingham Forest at the Stadium of Light.

Sunderland come into the match having seen their two-game winning streak come to an end last time out, and they’ll be eager to bounce back on home soil. 

Nottingham Forest, meanwhile, are pushing to steer clear of relegation and could take a significant step toward safety with a second consecutive league victory.

The bookmakers are struggling to separate the two sides, with both teams priced at 13/8 with Sky Bet, while the draw is available at 9/4.

It was Sunderland who edged the reverse fixture, securing a 1-0 win at the City Ground thanks to an Omar Alderete strike. However, Forest arrive in strong form, unbeaten in their last five league matches, a run that includes two wins.

So, can Forest extend their impressive run on the road, or will Sunderland make home advantage count? We won’t have to wait long to find out.
