Brighton v Nottingham Forest

Brighton vs Nottingham Forest Preview

Two of the five teams yet to taste defeat so far in this season's Premier League campaign will go head-to-head at the AMEX Stadium as hosts Brighton take on visitors Nottingham Forest down on the south coast on Sunday afternoon as Brighton gained a point by way of a 0-0 draw at home with Ipswich Town, while Nottingham Forest produced a 1-0 shock result away at Liverpool at Anfield.

Brighton have picked up two wins and two draws to date so far this season as The Seagulls have registered wins against Everton 3-0 away from home along with a 2-1 home win against Manchester United, followed by back-to-back points in the form of draws with Arsenal and Ipswich Town in 1-1 and 0-0n stalemates respectively.

League wins overall though have been hard to come by for The Seagulls as they have managed to capture just three wins within their last 14 games in the English top flight that includes a previous 1-0 home win against Aston Villa but also consists of slipping to six defeats as well.

After putting together a solid-looking 12-match unbeaten sequence from the start of September through to mid-March at their AMEX Stadium, recent results at home have been pretty inconsistent as Brighton have won just two of their subsequent seven home games.

Following their impressive 1-0 win away from home on merseyside against Liverpool at Anfield last weekend, Nottingham Forest will be brimming with confidence as they make their way down to the south coast for Sunday afternoon's clash against Brighton with the Tricky Trees also looking to preserve their unbeaten status.

Two wins and two draws have seen Nottingham Forest produce a similar start to their Premier League campaign as that of their hosts as Nuno Espirito Santo's side have collected wins against Southampton and Liverpool, along with gaining points in the shape of draws with Bournemouth and Wolves.

Even more impressive is the fact that both of Forest's wins to date this term in the English top flight have been achieved on their travels and indeed, the east midlands club have now won their last four away games on the trot in the Premier League as they picked up victories on the road at relegated Sheffield United and Burnley towards the end of last season's campaign.

In addition, six out of Nottingham Forest's last 10 away games have also resulted in Under 2.5 goals as well.

Brighton v Nottingham Forest Verdict

Four out of the last six meetings between Brighton and Nottingham Forest have seen only one team score so this upcoming clash may produce a low-scoring encounter, and with four away wins under their belts, Nottingham Forest could cause another upset here.

Therefore, our main bet will be Under 2.5 goals @ 2.00

Other side bets worth considering:

Under 2.5 goals & BTTS No @ 2.40

Nottingham Forest win @ 4.75
