Nottingham Forest vs Brighton Predictions

• Both teams have found the net in six of Nottingham Forest’s last eight Premier League home games.
• Brighton are without a win in six Premier League games.
• Forest have scored two goals in three of their six home league games this season.

More to come from Tricky Trees

Nottingham Forest beat in-form Aston Villa 2-0 in their last home Premier League outing and the international break couldn’t have come at a worse time for Steve Cooper’s men.

The Tricky Trees followed up that win with a battling 3-2 loss at West Ham, but the goals have started to flow for Forest, particularly on home soil, and there may be more to come from the City Ground side.

Forest are making the most of their chances and scored twice at the London Stadium from just five shots on target. The Villa win saw them bag twice with just three shots on target and that clinical edge will be crucial as they look to improve on their position of 14th in the Premier League standings.

Both teams have found the net in six of Nottingham Forest’s last eight Premier League home games and more goals are predicted once again on their return to action this weekend.

Brighton know only one way to play, and their penchant for attacking football has left them vulnerable in recent matches and they will head to Nottingham looking to snap a six-match winless run, but the prediction is for a home win with both teams getting on the scoresheet. 

Goals could flow by the River Trent

It’s not been all bad for the Seagulls who haven’t lost since a 2-1 defeat at Manchester City a month ago, but the prediction is for another similar outcome in this contest on Saturday.

Brighton have scored in all five away league matches this season but they have come out on top only twice, and they have yet to keep a clean sheet on the road in the league this campaign.

A lively encounter is expected on the banks of the Trent this weekend and Nottingham Forest to win 2-1 at the City Ground looks a decent-value bet for those fancying a correct-score wager.
