Under 2.5 Match Goals

Reason for tip

Brighton have struggled to make an impact going forward of late, with seven of their last eight going under 2.5 goals and each of their last six featuring fewer than three goals. Nottingham Forest are the second-worst goalscorers in the Premier League, and under 2.5 goals has landed in five of their last six league assignments.

Brighton vs Nottingham Forest Predictions

  • Under 2.5 goals has landed in each of Brighton’s last six home games.
  • Nottingham Forest have the second-worst attacking record in the Premier League.

Seagulls struggle to make an impact

Brighton brought their six-game winless run to an end at Brentford last weekend, but the Seagulls are in a disappointing 14th in the table and could have a tough time against Nottingham Forest.

Fabian Hurzeler’s side, often lauded for their attack-minded setup, have struggled to find the net in recent times, and they head into this game having notched just five goals across their last seven games.

Their 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace in their most recent home game leaves them with five goals from their last six at the Amex, and that sets the tone for another relatively drab affair when the struggling Forest visit the south coast.

Goal drought expected at the Amex

Despite a midweek defeat, the Tricky Trees earned an aggregate win over Fenerbahce to keep their Europa League dreams alive, but they are only two points above the Premier League relegation zone and their 3-0 win in Turkey in February is their only success in their last six assignments.

They harbour the second-worst attacking record in the top flight, and five of their last six league games have featured fewer than three goals.

With under 2.5 goals landing in seven of Brighton’s last eight Premier League ties and each of their last six at home, backing a low-scoring affair appeals, with a 1-1 draw the favoured correct score prediction.

Brighton have drawn four of their last six at home and three of these have ended 1-1, while Forest have played out two low-scoring draws in their last four league matches.
