Our prediction for this match: Brentford 2 - 1 Nottingham Forest
Brentford vs Nottingham Forest Preview
Brentford will be aiming to put an end to their three-game winless run when they host Nottingham Forest to the Gtech Community Stadium. The Bees shared the spoils with Hull City at the weekend despite enjoying 58% possession and creating 1.74 expected goals. Yehor Yarmoliuk is suspended, while Fabio Carvalho Milambo and Josh Dasilva are sidelined through injury, but their absences should not prove decisive. Brentford have been strong at home, scoring an average of 2.00 goals and conceding just 0.75 per game across their recent home fixtures.
Nottingham Forest, meanwhile, are on a four-game winless run in the Premier League, losing three of those matches while struggling to find the net. Neco Williams faces a race against time to be fit, while Callum Hudson-Odoi is pushing for a starting spot. Forest have conceded 1.75 goals per away game and failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last four away matches, making this a difficult trip.
Given Brentford’s stronger home performances and Forest’s recent struggles, we believe that there is big value in betting on Home Win, alongside Over 1.5 goals and Both Teams to Score (it has landed in 14 of 22 H2H encounters).
This Premier League match will be played on Saturday, 31 October 2026 at 15:00 in Brentford Community Stadium, London.
