Tip and bets

2.23Nottingham Forest with a handicap of (0)

We think that Brentford successful home streak may well end today. The Bees had a tough match in the League Cup this week, there are no special opportunities for rotation, plus there are serious losses in the defensive line. Nottingham Forest have been successful in away matches, having suffered only two defeats in their last ten away games in the Premier League. The Foresters know how to play second fiddle and clearly use their chances, especially since the Londoners are quite vulnerable in defense. We believe that the bookmakers are slightly underestimating the visitors.

Our prediction is a Nottingham Forest win with an Asian handicap (0) at odds of 2.23

1.6both will score

Bet on total

You can always expect high scoring from matches involving Brentford. The Londoners themselves play boldly and aggressively in attack, but at the same time they allow their opponents a lot at their goal. In all official matches on their home field since the beginning of the season, the "bees" have exchanged goals with their opponents. We do not see any prerequisites for this series to be broken today.

Second bet - both teams to score with odds of 1.60

Yellow Card Betting

Nottingham Forest have received at least three yellow cards in six of their last eight away Premier League games. Based on these statistics, we recommend another betting option.
