Prediction: 1-2
Brighton
All eyes will be on The New Lawn when Forest Green and Brighton face each other in the EFL Cup last 64. The Green Army aim to make amends for a 3-0 loss to Plymouth, and head coach Ian Burchnall is likely to mix the squad in the midweek clash. All Wickham, Robertsn, and Little are pushing for a start. You should bear in mind that Forest Green have yet to record a win at home ground this season.
The Seagulls, on the other hand, did well to beat West Ham on the road in their last league fixture, meaning that they are high on spirits ahead of their EFL Cup opener. Even though Graham Potter is going to mix the squad against Forest Green, away win should be considered as the visitors made a promising start to the season. Midfielder Jakub Moder remains in the recovery room, while all Estupinan, Mwepu, Undav, and Maupay should be recalled to the starting XI.
Highlighted Player (Ebou Adams):
After spending his youth career at Orpington and Dartford, Ebou Adams made his debut for the Dartford senior team on April 26, 2014, in a 3-1 loss to Nuneaton Town. Born in Greenwich, England on January 15, 1996, Ebou Adams is a midfielder who played for the likes of Walton Casuals (loan), Norwich City, Braintree Town (loan), Shrewsbury Town (loan), Leyton Orient (loan), and Ebbsfleet Town as well before joining Forest Green Rovers.
He signed a two-year deal with the Green Army on June 18, 2019, making his debut with the club on August 10, 2019, in a 1-1 draw with Walsall. The footballer of Gambian descent debuted for the Gambia national team against Morocco B in November 2017.
His primary position is central midfield, but he is often used as a defensive midfielder. Ebou Adams has dual citizenship (England/Gambia), and he wears the number 14 shirt at Forest Green.
Highlighted Team (Brighton):
Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club were formed in 1901. The Seagulls welcome their opponents at Falmer Stadium and the capacity of Brighton’s home ground is 30,750. The stadium was built in 2008 and it was opened in 2011. The venue is known for commercial purposes as American Express Community Stadium.
Brighton & Hove Albion compete in the Premier League and they play in blue and white stripes. The colour of Brighton’s away kit is green. The club made it to the FA Cup final in 1983, but English giants Manchester United proved to be a big catch for the Red Devils.
Brighton’s main rivals are Crystal Palace and the Seagulls have recorded 35 wins over the Eagles. Frank Stapleton, Martin Chivers, Joe Corrigan, Bobby Zamora, Mark Lawrenson, Bobby Smith, John Crumplin and Frank Worthington are notable footballers who played for Brighton in the past. The Albion is Preston’s yet another nickname.
