Couple that with Forest conceding just six goals so far this campaign, an amount only bettered by Liverpool (two), all things point to the Forest defence brushing aside a low-confidence Palace attack and continuing their top-half push.<\/p>\n<h3>Mads Hermansen &#8211; Leicester City (vs Southampton) &#8211; \u00a34.5 Million<\/h3>\n<p>Leicester City finally got their first win in Gameweek Seven, as they edged past Bournemouth, facing 19 shots and somehow coming away with a clean sheet. Now the Foxes are set to face newly promoted strugglers Southampton, who are on a run of two successive 3-1 defeats, to Arsenal and the Cherries.<\/p>\n<p>Russell Martin&#8217;s Saints are one of four sides in the Premier League yet to claim a win in their first seven games, and as they enter the weekend as the division&#8217;s lowest scorers with just four goals, Leicester and Mads Hermansen will be feeling confident in achieving a second consecutive clean sheet of their season, especially if they defend in the same way they did last weekend.<\/p>\n<h3>Ederson Moraes &#8211; Manchester City (vs Wolves) &#8211; \u00a35.5 Million<\/h3>\n<p>Probably the most certain banker for big goalkeeper points this weekend, unbeaten Ederson Moraes and Manchester City face a Wolves side desperately searching for a route off the bottom of the league table.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/10\/16\/england-thomas-tuchel-new-head-coach\/\" target=\"_self\">England Confirm \u2018Fantastic\u2019 Champions League-Winner In New Head Coach Role<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bd4c413 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"bd4c413\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-52e6ebe6 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"52e6ebe6\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-312d2c08 elementor-align-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-post-info is-mac\" data-id=\"312d2c08\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"post-info.default\">\n<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n<p>Despite City beating Fulham 3-2 last time out, Pep Guardiola&#8217;s side will not want to be as open at the back as they were against the Cottagers. Usually, when City come off the back of a nerve-racking result, they bounce back in style. Winless Wolves against a City side on a roll?
