Nottingham Forest - Brentford

[Sniffer Dog (Admin)]

It's a tough and tricky game this one. In their last 3 games they have drawn with Arsenal and Chelsea and beaten Brighton.

They’ve won 3 of their last 5 away Leicester Bournemouth and West Ham, lost to Newcastle and drew with Arsenal

At home we’ve beat Brighton Man Utd Man City drew with Arsenal and lost to Everton

I've got a nagging worry that us constantly playing catchup with our game in hand might have an effect. We had to win last week to go back third. We're behind again this week and will be next week too with us playing on the Monday night. Can we keep dragging the results out?

The flipside of that is if we *do* keep winning then that puts the pressure back on the others. If we win and they slip up then they're in worse positions having played a game more.

Would have been great to win the cup but I do think having to have moved the West Ham game too could have been the last straw. Current schedule should be manageable and hopefully we have the confidence that we can take the game to anyone on our day.

Hopefully they want to show the world that yesterdays bad luck and poor first half performance was just a blip, and we stuff Brentford to move back to third.

Fingers crossed its back to Aina and Williams left and right, and we start with Yates and Anderson in the middle.

Elanga and CHO on the wings and lets do this.

I dunno, kind of our thing.

Win and we are effectively guaranteed European competition of some form as we would finish at least 7th. Fulham and Brighton can then only match our tally of 63 and have inferior GD.

There is no greater incentive than that COYR!

Need a reaction and we need 3 points. A nice 3-0 win would do too. Take it out on the xg shysters…

They will come and be really open, they have been all season.
A lot of goals in their games.
They will cause us problems defensively but also give us plenty of opportunities to get at their back line.

I think that applies more to their home games though.

There away games seem to be tighter affairs from memory (haven't checked).

Their season has flipped round. Until we beat them they'd been unbeaten at home but hadn't won away. Now they're a lot flakier at home but have got a few away wins.

Nothing in that, just look at their fixtures. They had all bottom half teams at home first and then the bottom half teams away in the 2nd half of the year.

So the team news has been leaked again though not sure how to find it, tails mentioned in an article recently that the powers that be are aware and are trying to find the leak, surely it can’t be that hard to find

As well as it being stupid of the person/people leaking the team news it's also stupid of whoever keeps posting it on social media. If they're meant to be a Forest fan it's not in the team's best interests for some bozo to keep sharing the leaked news for social media clout.
