Will Fabian Hurzeler's players be able to build on their success with their fans today? We suggest you read our betting tip and choose the exact rates
Command Analysis
Brighton & Hove Albion
Current form
Brighton, taking into account the Cup, went on three defeats in a row. In the last round in the Premier League, the Seagulls managed to break this series by beating Brentford 2-0 on the road. In fact, everything was decided in that meeting in the first half, when we managed to score two goals. Overall, there is no serious motivation for the rest of the season. Fabian Hürzeler's team has been eliminated from all cups, they occupy the 14th place in the Premier League, they are not in danger of relegation, but they will not be able to compete for European cups either. It should be noted that Brighton is usually successful on its own field, where it has suffered only two defeats since the beginning of the season.
Disqualifications and injuries
Webster and Tsimas are injured and will not be able to help their team. Ayari, March, and Milner are questionable.
Interesting betting trends
Brighton has not won in 12 of the last 14 Premier League matches.
In seven of the last eight matches with the Seagulls in the Premier League, no more than two goals have been scored.
Nottingham Forest successfully overcame the stage of the 1/16 finals in the Europa League, beating Fenerbahce in the sum of two matches with a score of 4:2. In the Premier League, the foresters are not doing very well, they risk going to the Championship. In 27 rounds, Forest scored only 27 points, takes 17th place and is only two points away from the relegation zone. In the previous four rounds, Vitor Pereira's team did not win a single victory, they scored only two points in this segment. In the last game in the Premier League, a home defeat against Liverpool was recorded (0:1).
Disqualifications and injuries
Pain, Wood, Victor, Sels and Savona are injured.
Interesting betting trends
Nottingham Forest has only two wins in their last 11 Premier League matches.
On the road in the Premier League in the previous 10 matches, the foresters did not play a draw.
The approximate line-up: Ortega – Aina, Milenkovic, Murillo, Williams – Anderson, Sangare – Hutchinson, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi – Jesus.
The opponents do not demonstrate a stable game, they regularly fail defensively. It is hardly worth waiting for anyone to win back to zero today. Brighton, taking into account all tournaments, missed in four of the previous five matches. Nottingham Forest had only missed twice on the road in the previous 10 games. We believe that, given the weak defensive play, there will be an exchange of goals scored in the match today.
Our betting tip is that both will score for a coefficient of 1.67
According to the outcome, we will give preference to seagulls. They defeated Brentford confidently in the last round, and they spent the whole week preparing for the upcoming meeting. Nottingham Forest had a battle with Fenerbahce, where Vitor Pereira did not immediately release the entire main squad on the field, but after the score became 0:2 on the scoreboard, key players had to be involved. We believe that Brighton will have a better chance of winning on their own field today.
The second bet is the victory of Brighton with a coefficient of 2.07
A bet on yellow cards
Separately, we note the steady trend in yellow cards. In seven of the eight previous home matches involving Brighton in the Premier League, more than three warnings were shown. It is unlikely that these statistics will fail today.
The betting tip is that the total number of yellow cards is more than 3.5 with a coefficient of 1.76
xG (from English "expected goals" translates as "expected goals") is the sum of the probabilities of scoring chances, a mathematical value calculated taking into account the parameters of potential scoring chances, which include shots on goal and dangerous moments without finishing shots.
