Contents
- Competition: Premier League

- Venue: City Ground
When they host Brighton this weekend, Nottingham Forest will be seeking three points to distance themselves further from the relegation zone.
Last season ended on a tense note for the hosts, who barely escaped the relegation zone by a margin of four points. However, it seems they might not have to face that anxiety this season. Steve Cooper’s team, with 13 points from 12 games, is currently eight points away from the relegation zone, albeit six places behind Brighton on the leaderboard. The significant improvement in Nottingham Forest’s performance can be primarily attributed to their exceptional performance at home games, where they have only been defeated once this season.
Brighton, who are currently having a hard time securing victories in the league, are set to face Forest. Despite starting the 2023-24 season on a high note with five victories in their first six matches, the Seagulls have hit a rough patch recently. Ahead of the international break, Zerbi’s team endured a streak of six consecutive league games without a win, suffering two losses and four draws.
Nottingham Forest vs Brighton Betting Tips: Both teams to score
Forest has performed impeccably at the City Ground this season in terms of scoring goals. In each of their five home games this season, Cooper’s team has consistently scored at least once, with only one game ending without both teams scoring.
If you’re a keen football follower, you’ll be aware that Brighton’s main issue this season is their defence. The Seagulls have not managed to maintain a clean sheet in the Premier League this season, and so far, BTTS &— Yes bets have been successful in all twelve of their league matches.

Brighton team news
Brighton will likely not have Mahmoud Dahoud available this weekend, as the midfielder was given a straight red card in the match against Sheffield United before the international break.
Due to injuries to the meniscus and hamstring, Julio Enciso and Danny Welbeck will be absent respectively, whereas Kaoru Mitoma’s participation is uncertain.
Ansu Fati had his initial Premier League start playing against Sheffield United. However, the Barcelona loanee may be substituted by João Pedro in the final third, and Carlos Noom Quomah Baleba might potentially take Dahoud’s place in the engine room.
