Following a crucial victory over Brighton & Hove Albion in midweek, Nottingham Forest will resume their bid for Premier League survival when they face Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
Steve Cooper’s side moved out of the bottom three thanks to Wednesday’s 3-1 victory at the City Ground, while Brentford claimed a 2-0 win at Chelsea to cement their place in the top half of the table.
Brentford became the latest team to benefit from Chelsea’s wastefulness as they picked up all three points at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday, despite registering a solitary attempt on target while seeing just 27% of the ball.
An own goal from Cesar Azpilicueta gave the Bees the lead on 37 minutes before substitute Bryan Mbeumo dished up a tasty solo effort to secure the win for his side late on.
Wednesday’s victory ended a six-game winless run for Thomas Frank’s men, who suffered successive defeats to Manchester United, Newcastle United and Wolverhampton Wanderers before holding high-flying Aston Villa to a 1-1 draw last weekend.
There is no denying that Brentford have endured a sticky spell in recent weeks, but they have continued to pick up points at the Gtech Community Stadium, losing just one of their last 12 home league games.

Brentford vs Nottm Forest Prediction
Brentford have an impressive squad at their disposal and have consistently punched above their weight over the past year. Ivan Toney and Bryan Mbeumo have stepped up in recent weeks and will look to prove their mettle this weekend.
Nottingham Forest were exceptional in their previous league game and will need to be at their best to avoid relegation. Brentford are formidable at home, however, and should be able to win this game.
Prediction: Brentford 3-1 Nottingham Forest
