Brighton & Hove Albion vs Nottingham Forest Prediction and Betting Tips (18.10.2022)

Command Analysis

Brighton & Hove Albion

England

Brighton had an excellent start to their Premier League campaign, but a month ago Graham Potter was offered a manager position at Chelsea, and it appears that Brighton's new head coach Roberto de Zerbi is having difficulty finding common ground with his players. De Zerbi even blamed his charges for recent defeats to Brentford (0:2) and Tottenham (0:1).

Currently, the Seagulls are in 7th place in the Premier League standings with 14 points from four wins and two draws. The hosts will be without Moder, who is out with a knee injury.

Nottingham Forest

England

Nottingham Forest have finally made it back to the Premier League. Their main goal for the season is to keep the residense in the elite, but so far, the team has been doing poorly. After beating West Ham (1:0) and drawing Everton (1:1), the Tricky Trees suffered seven defeats and eked out one point in the game against Aston Villa (1:1).

Steve Cooper's side is bottom of the log with only five points from ten games. The visiting team will have to cope without Richards, Colback, and Niakhate, who are all sidelined through injuries.
