Nottingham Forest vs Brighton Preview and Betting Tips

Nottingham Forest host Brighton in what can only be described as a must-win game if they hope to continue their unprecedented race for a return to the Champions League. Nottingham Forest sit 3rd, 3 points ahead of 5th place Newcastle United and Brighton sit 9th following a defeat at home to Everton last time out. Despite the difference in league standing, the tension is sure to be there ahead of this fixture as both teams will be eager to get a result.

Nottingham Forest vs Brighton

Calendar 1st February
Football icon kick off 12:30
Football icon Anthony Elanga to have 1+ Shots on Target
Arrow down

Anthony Elanga offers superb value in the shot on target market here, with the Sweden international available at a huge price of 1.91 to hit the target once.
Elanga has done so in 7 of his last 8 Premier League games for Nottingham Forest, including once off the bench against Aston Villa back in December. With 3 goals and 3 assists in these 8 games, the left winger is in fantastic form and should be feeling confident in front of goal if and when the chances present themselves.
He is averaging 0.79 shots on target per 90 in the Premier League, a solid but unspectacular return, however, his recent form has been nudging this number higher and higher over recent weeks. He notched a shot on target in Forest’s 5-0 humbling away to Bournemouth last time out, suggesting that no matter the result, he has a great chance of getting at least one attempt on target.

Football icon Morgan Gibbs-White to Commit 1+ Fouls
Arrow down

Gibbs-White is offered at an appealing price to commit a foul, with the Forest midfielder and now England international fouling 1.56 times per 90 in the Premier League. He has fouled at least once in 6 of his last 8 starts in the league, only failing to do so against Liverpool and in that 5-0 mauling at the hands of Bournemouth.
He has committed multiple fouls in 3 of his last 7 league starts, and fouled a whopping 4 times against Brighton earlier this season, one of just 3 league games in which he has fouled more than twice.
The 25-year-old is matched up against a Brighton midfield pair that win plenty of fouls, with Carlos Baleba fouled 1.72 times per 90, and Yasin Ayari winning 1.28 fouls per 90 in the Premier League. Baleba in particular is one to watch, having been fouled 9 times in his last 5 starts.

Football icon Jota Silva to Commit 1+ Fouls
Arrow down

The Portuguese forward has started just 5 of Forest’s last 14 games in all competitions, but he has still managed to foul in 11 of these 14, fouling in all 5 starts as well as in 6 of his appearances off the bench.
Silva commits 2.21 fouls per 90 in the Premier League, and as mentioned above has fouled in all 6 of his starts for Forest. Of these 6 starts, Silva has committed 14 total fouls, with multiple fouls in 4 of these 6 games. He also committed a foul in 45 minutes off the bench against Brighton earlier this season.
He will primarily be up against Tariq Lamptey, who has won a foul in all but one of his starts for Brighton this season and also asked to double up on Brighton’s Kaoru Mitoma, who wins 0.73 fouls per 90.
