Brentford vs Nottingham Forest Predictions

• Brentford have won five of their last seven games.
• The Bees have the fourth-best home record in the Premier League.
• Nottingham Forest have only won one of their last eight games.

Bees poised to bounce back

Brentford’s unbeaten streak came to an end at Stamford Bridge last weekend, but the Bees should bounce back with confidence against a Nottingham Forest side edging closer to the Premier League relegation zone on Sunday.

Keith Andrew has done a phenomenal job since jumping up to the managerial position at the Brentford Community Stadium, leading his side to within three points of a top-four spot and holding the fourth-best home record in the top flight.

They have won five of their last seven games, and their only defeat in front of their own fans this season came against Manchester City in October, with five wins and two draws following that narrow defeat.

Thiago to sink Tricky Trees

Nottingham Forest fell to a damaging defeat in Braga in midweek, and their only win in their last eight games came against the relegation-threatened West Ham.

They have lost four of their last six in the Premier League, and another defeat looks a good value bet when they visit Brentford on Sunday.

The Tricky Trees have the second-worst attacking record in the division and have failed to score in their last two matches. Brentford have won to nil in two of their last three, so a repeat of their 2-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday in the FA Cup could be on the cards.

Star-man Igor Thiago could be the scorer of one of those goals, with the Brazilian notching 17 goals across all competitions this season. He has scored five in his last three appearances and found the net in the reverse fixture back in August.
