It has been seldom in recent games that Brighton & Hove Albion have shown defensive steel. The facts show that Brighton & Hove Albion have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 matches, giving up 10 goals during that time.

After tasting defeat last time out to Wolverhampton Wanderers in Premier League action, Nottingham Forest and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

In that match, Nottingham Forest had 42% possession and 10 attempts on goal with 2 on target. On the other side, Wolverhampton Wanderers had 9 attempts at goal with 2 of them on target. Rúben Neves (56') scored for Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The stats tell the story, and Nottingham Forest have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 18 goals in all. Defensively, Nottingham Forest have not been doing too well. That trend might not be carried forward into this match, though.

Inspecting their most recent head to head meetings dating back to 27/09/2014 shows that Brighton have won 3 of these and Nottingham Forest 2, with the tally of drawn games being 1.

In all, 15 goals were produced between them throughout the course of those matches, with 8 for The Seagulls and 7 created by The Reds. The average goals per game has been 2.5.

The last league contest between the two was Championship match day 35 on 04/03/2017 which ended up with the score at Nottingham Forest 3-0 Brighton & Hove Albion.

Brighton & Hove Albion had 16 attempts at goal with 3 of them on target.

The match was refereed by Oliver Langford.

There is just the lone fitness concern for the Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi to be concerned about from a near full-strength squad. Jakub Moder (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) is sidelined.

We think that The Seagulls look set to use a 3-4-2-1 system for this game, handing starts to Robert Sanchez, Joel Veltman, Lewis Dunk, Adam Webster, Solly March, Leandro Trossard, Alexis Mac Allister, Moises Caicedo, Pascal Gross, Adam Lallana and Danny Welbeck.

Due to a fully healthy squad available for selection, the Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper doesn’t have any fitness worries at all ahead of this game.

From our viewpoint, The Reds seem likely to make use of a 4-3-3 lineup, starting Dean Henderson, Neco Williams, Steve Cook, Scott McKenna, Harry Toffolo, Ryan Yates, Orel Mangala, Jesse Lingard, Brennan Johnson, Taiwo Awoniyi and Morgan Gibbs-White.

Looking at these two teams, we feel that Brighton & Hove Albion should really get the win and a possible clean sheet when they line up against Nottingham Forest, who won’t find it easy to score.

We therefore think that it’s going to be a comfortable 2-0 victory for Brighton & Hove Albion when all’s said and done.

Turning to the betting odds on the win-draw-win market, a victory for Brighton & Hove Albion can be had for 1.4, a bet on the draw is 4.8 and taking a punt on the winner to be Nottingham Forest is 8. Those are the best prices available right now.

Our expert partners are tipping under 3.5 goals for this match.
