Former Aston Villa striker Gabriel Agbonlahor has made his prediction ahead of Nottingham Forest’s trip to face West Ham on Sunday.

Steve Cooper and his side are looking for a second win in a row after picking up a valuable win against Aston Villa at the City Ground last weekend.

Meanwhile, David Moyes’ West Ham won in the Europa League last night against Olympiacos – a side also owned by Evangelos Marinakis.

The Hammers haven’t won a Premier League game since the end of September, but Agbonlahor thinks they might hold the edge over the Reds.

“West Ham have got a very good team, with the likes of [James] Ward-Prowse, [Jarrod] Bowen and [Michail] Antonio.

“If they click against Nottingham Forest which I think they will do, I can see them winning the game comfortably.

“I’m actually going to go for a 3-0 win to West Ham.”

Forest should be full of confidence ahead of West Ham clash

Following a brilliant display against Unai Emery’s side last weekend, Cooper’s side must come into this game full of confidence.

They produced a brilliant defensive display whilst looking very threatening on the counter attack, with the pace of Anthony Elanga.

The Reds have looked much better in recent weeks but will look to improve their away record against Moyes’ side on Sunday.

Cooper’s side have a brilliant opportunity to take advantage of the Irons’ poor Premier League form and collect three valuable points on the road.
