Brighton & Hove Albion vs Nottingham Forest
This reactive state is good for Forest. They seek to address a poor run of results on the road this season with three draws, eight losses, and just two wins in league away contests. Forest are on a three-match away winless streak (W0 D1 L2). The last time they won away was December 2023 against Newcastle United.

Forest have admittedly reacted pretty well from going behind and earn a corner. That said, Brighton are hardly tested and clear well.

Great save Verbruggen! Origi is through on the right but the young Dutchman stands his ground and blocks the low drive with his feet! Great goalkeeping!

Foul here by Omobamidele on Fati on the left and he has to be careful! He is on a booking... if he keeps lunging in like that, Santo may have to have a word or take him off.

Ferguson and Adingra are proving to be a nuisance for Forest! The Ivorian bolts down the right before keeping the ball in on the byline with a snapping pull back to the near post. His young Irish teammate is there but can only fire at Sels who blocks well!
Brighton & Hove Albion vs Nottingham Forest
On home soil this season, Brighton have secured 24 points (W6 D6 L1) from a possible 39 on offer in 13 Premier League contests. The Seagulls are in the midst of an 11-match home unbeaten streak (Wins 5 Draws 6 Losses 0) dating to September 2023 against Newcastle United.

As that effort from Gibbs-White was far from skilled, who has been skilled in front of goal for Forest? The leading attacking threats have been Chris Wood and Taiwo Awoniyi, who have netted eight and six times, respectively. Gibbs-White has a little bit of practice due if he wants to catch up with attempts like that bicycle kick.

Gibbs-White goes for a bicycle kick here and nearly connects with Veltman instead of the ball!
Brighton & Hove Albion vs Nottingham Forest
Fati heads over from the free kick on the right. It's a great ball in and the Barcelona loanee is unlucky as Williams gets a vital touch to divert it over. From the next corner, there's bodies everyone and it breaks out to Baleba... he hits the stands with his powerful effort.
