Nottingham Forest vs. Brentford Preview (What To Know Before Betting)

Nottingham Forest vs. Brentford

Sunday’s Premier League fixture features Nottingham Forest hosting Brentford at the City Ground, with just one point separating the two teams in the standings.

Nottingham Forest narrowly lost to 10-man Manchester City in their recent outing, while Brentford couldn’t make a mark in their EFL Cup defeat against Arsenal on Wednesday.

When Phil Foden and Erling Haaland found the net within the opening 14 minutes at the Etihad Stadium last weekend, it initially suggested that Nottingham Forest might face a formidable challenge. However, Pep Guardiola’s squad failed to extend their early lead.

In a surprising turn of events, following Rodri’s red card in the 46th minute, the visitors enjoyed significant success. Steve Cooper’s team controlled 63% of the possession and recorded nine shots in the second half, while they effectively restricted Manchester City to just one goal effort after the halftime.

What to remember – Nottingham Forest vs. Brentford

“When you combine Nottingham Forest’s strong performance at home in the Premier League with Brentford’s recent struggles, it strongly suggests that Cooper’s team is poised for a win this Sunday.

With three consecutive losses in their record, it appears that the Bees are on track for a fourth defeat in a row against the Tricky Trees. It’s probable that Nottingham Forest will secure a close victory at the City Ground.”
