Recent form

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest's recent form has been somewhat inconsistent, with two wins, one draw, and three losses in their last six matches. The Reds have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring only four goals in this period, averaging a mere 0.67 goals per game. Defensively, they have been relatively solid, conceding six goals and keeping two clean sheets. Their matches have tended to be low-scoring affairs, with 67% of games featuring under 2.5 goals. Despite their mixed results, Forest have managed to maintain a respectable 6th position in the league table with 60 points from 33 games. Their most notable result in this run was a 1-0 victory over Manchester United, demonstrating their ability to compete with top-tier opposition. However, their FA Cup journey came to an end with a 2-0 defeat to Manchester City in their most recent match.

Brentford

Brentford's recent form shows a mixed bag of results, with the Bees demonstrating resilience in their latest outing by securing a high-scoring 4-2 victory against Brighton. This win was particularly noteworthy as it broke a four-match winless streak, during which they managed two draws against tough opponents Arsenal and Chelsea. The team's defensive record has been relatively solid, conceding just over one goal per game on average, while their attack has shown flashes of brilliance, particularly in the Brighton match. Brentford's ability to score and concede has led to both teams finding the net in two-thirds of their recent fixtures, with an even split between high and low-scoring affairs. Their mid-table position of 11th with 46 points from 33 games suggests a season of steady, if unspectacular, performance in the Premier League.

Recent home/away form

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest's recent home form presents a mixed picture, with their last six matches at the City Ground resulting in two wins, two draws, and two losses. Notably, the Forest have been involved in a series of low-scoring affairs, with all six games featuring under 2.5 goals and an impressive three clean sheets. Their defensive prowess is further highlighted by conceding only 0.67 goals per game, although their attacking output has been somewhat muted, scoring just 0.5 goals per match. Forest have shown they can compete with top sides, securing 1-0 victories against both Manchester clubs in the Premier League. However, they've struggled to find consistency, failing to string together more than two consecutive positive results. The lack of high-scoring games and the fact that both teams scored in only 17% of these matches underscores Forest's tendency towards tight, defensive encounters at home.

Brentford

Brentford have been in impressive form away from home, securing four consecutive victories before their recent draw with Arsenal and loss to Newcastle United. Their away performances have been particularly noteworthy, with the Bees scoring 11 goals and conceding only 5 in their last six away matches. The standout result was a resounding 4-0 win against Leicester, showcasing their attacking prowess. Brentford have managed to keep two clean sheets during this run, demonstrating a solid defensive foundation. Their recent form has been high-scoring, with 67% of their away games seeing over 2.5 goals. The team's ability to find the back of the net consistently, averaging 1.83 goals per game, has been crucial to their success on the road, helping them climb to 11th position in the Premier League table.
