Brentford vs Nottingham Forest Prediction Match Details
Two teams battling away from the relegation zone, Brentford and Nottingham Forest, will meet in an important match on Saturday at the Brentford Community Stadium as Premier League actions continue.
Brentford Preview & Form
Brentford have had a poor run of form in the Premier League, and they are three points away from the relegation zone. They currently sit 19th in the standings after 19 games.
Pressure keeps mounting on their manager, Thomas Frank, who will look to improve on their miserable recent form. The Bees are on a five-match losing streak in the Premier League. Their last defeat in the Premier League was an away match against Crystal Palace, where the bees squandered an early goal and saw the scoreline 3-1.
Frustration keeps mounting on Thomas Frank’s side, with Brentford being shown the exit from the FA Cup in the midweek. In a dramatic match replay at Molineux Stadium that required extra time, Wolves defeated Brentford 3-2.
Brentford will look to strengthen their attack with the addition of their talisman, Ivan Toney, who suffered an eight-month suspension ban. They will look to improve when playing on their home soil, as they have been winless in their last three games.
Nottingham Forest Preview & Form
Nottingham Forest have displayed excellent form since the appointment of their new head coach, Nuno Espirito Santo. They currently sit in 16th place in the league with 20 points, but they are four points away from the relegation zone.
Forest have looked decent in reviving their stay in the Premier League. Their significant 3-1 away victory over Newcastle and 2-1 home victory over Manchester United see them end their seven-game winless run.
Nottingham Forest also advanced to the next round of the FA Cup after they secured a 3-2 victory against Blackpool in the second leg replay on Wednesday night, thanks to goals from Andrew Omobamidele Danilo and an extra-time strike from Chris Wood.
Nottingham Forest attacks have been superb, as their striker Chris Wood have scored five goals in his last five games for the club. Nottingham Forest have scored two goals or more in each of their last three matches.
Brentford vs Nottingham Forest Betting Tips
Both teams have been excellent in terms of scoring goals, as the home team have recorded six goals and the away team have recorded 12 goals in their last five matches. We believe the game will see a high number of goals.
