Nottingham Forest vs Brentford Prediction, Betting Tips, & Odds – Premier League Tips

Here is our Nottingham Forest v Brentford prediction, which features expert betting tips, the latest odds, and Premier League tips ahead of Sunday’s clash at the City Ground.

Brentford have had to endure a turbulent summer but will seek to put that behind them when visiting Nottingham Forest on Sunday.

The Bees have been tipped by many pundits to end up in a relegation battle this term, but love nothing more than to prove the doubters wrong.

A point at the City Ground would be a solid start for Brentford, and 9/4 for this match to end in a draw is our initial Nottingham Forest vs Brentford prediction.

Form Guide

Nottingham Forest vs Brentford form guide

Forest performed incredibly well to finish seventh last season, nine points and three places above Brentford.

However, Nuno Espirito Santo did feel some heat during a patchy run-in, which produced just two wins in eight league matches, compared to four defeats.

Losing Anthony Elanga to Newcastle for £55million was another minus point, albeit Bologna winger Dan Ndoye has been brought in as a £34m replacement.

POLL: Who Will Be First Goalscorer?

Pre-season results have left a lot to be desired, with no wins in seven warm-up matches, as losses to Fulham and Birmingham came in between a series of goalless draws.

Looking at the Nottingham Forest vs Brentford odds, plenty will see 10/11 for under 2.5 total goals in this game as a percentage pick .

Brentford have been rocked by a trio of key departures this summer, with head coach Thomas Frank switching to Tottenham, Bryan Mbeumo joining Manchester United, and Christian Norgaard leaving for Arsenal.

Promoting Keith Andrews from within should help with continuity, though, and the new boss has been backed with some solid signings, including Liverpool reserve keeper Caoimhin Kelleher and former Anfield captain Jordan Henderson.

Friendly draws with Gil Vicente and Borussia Monchengladbach, either side of a 1-0 win at QPR, can be seen as encouraging, with Andrews hailing the “passion, character, resilience and personality” shown against the German outfit.

Head-to-Head Record

Forest vs Brentford head-to-head record

The Bees have had the better of things in six Premier League meetings, with May’s 2-0 victory at this venue making it three wins in their favour, with two other games drawn.

Brentford’s Yoane Wissa has netted in two of his side’s three visits to the City Ground, but strong transfer rumours may temper his appeal in goalscorer markets.

Both encounters last term featured the same number of goals in each half, so 12/5 for that to happen again is added to our Nottingham Forest vs Brentford betting tips.
