Nottingham Forest are winless in six league matches against Brentford since a 1-0 victory at Griffin Park in the Championship in January 2020.
Brentford:
Brentford will be keen to bounce back from their midweek EFL Cup disappointment when they host Nottingham Forest at the Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday. After a 3-1 loss to Newcastle in the cup quarter-finals, Thomas Frank's men will shift their focus back to the Premier League, where they've enjoyed remarkable success on home turf. Despite a poor away record, Brentford have been unbeatable at home, winning 22 of 24 points available this season, and are one of only two teams with an unbeaten home record, alongside Arsenal. While they’ve yet to keep a clean sheet at the Gtech, their attacking form has been formidable, scoring at least three goals in each of their last five home games. Brentford will look to extend their dominance at home, where they have not lost to Forest in the Premier League since their promotion in 2022.
Nottingham Forest:
Nottingham Forest’s confidence is soaring after an incredible 2-1 comeback win against Aston Villa last weekend, moving them into the Premier League’s top four. Nuno Espirito Santo's side capitalized on a Villa slip-up, with Anthony Elanga’s dramatic last-minute winner securing a memorable victory. Forest have been strong both at home and on the road this season, with an even record in both settings, but their defensive vulnerabilities on away trips are a concern. They have gone six consecutive away games without a clean sheet, which doesn’t bode well ahead of a visit to Brentford, who have been free-scoring at home. Forest will also be looking to end a winless streak in the Premier League against Brentford, who have won both their meetings at the Gtech Community Stadium since Forest's promotion.
