Nottingham Forest vs Brighton & Hove Albion match preview
After Sunday’s FA Cup semi-final heartbreak at Wembley, can Brighton & Hove Albion bounce back?
At the weekend, the Seagulls featured in just the club’s third-ever FA Cup semi-final, taking on Manchester United.
After two hours of play, neither team had managed to find a breakthrough, so to penalties it went.
The first 12 spot-kicks were all scored, but then Solly March blazed his effort high above the crossbar meaning, when Victor Lindelöf sent Robert Sánchez the wrong way, Brighton’s dreams were over.
Back in the Premier League, Roberto De Zerbi’s team still have nine games to go and certainly have plenty to play for.
Having beaten Chelsea at Stamford Bridge 11 days ago, the Seagulls are eighth, one point below Liverpool, two behind Aston Villa and just four adrift Tottenham in third.
Nottingham Forest meantime have plenty of European pedigree but, right now, are simply scrapping to stay in the division.
On Saturday, Steve Cooper’s side were beaten 3-2 at Anfield, despite the fact both Neco Williams and Morgan Gibbs-White managed to equalise in the second half.
This makes it four successive defeats for Forest, who are without a victory in 11.
The Reds remain in the relegation zone, one point from safety, and have an extremely tough run-in: Brentford (A), Southampton (H), Chelsea (A), Arsenal (H) and Crystal Palace (A).
Their survival prospects are not looking good.
The reverse fixture in October finished goalless, but both clubs need a victory this time at the City Ground.
Nottingham Forest team news
Scott McKenna suffered a broken collarbone on Saturday, so will endure an extended period on the sidelines.
Thus Joe Worrall, who’s only just back from injury himself, will join Felipe and Moussa Niakhaté in the back three.
Top-scorer Brennan Johnson was surprisingly only on the bench at Anfield but will return here, alongside Morgan Gibbs-White and Taiwo Awoniyi.
Forest have only won six games this season with Awoniyi, Gibbs-White and Johnson the only players to score in those victories.
Predicted XI (5-3-2): Navas; Williams, Felipe, Worrall, Niakhaté, Lodi; Freuler, Danilo, Gibbs-White; Johnson, Awoniyi.
Brighton & Hove Albion team news
Deniz Undav could start up front, given that Evan Ferguson is out injured, while Danny Welbeck is a doubt having hobbled off at Wembley.
In goal, Jason Steele had seemingly usurped Robert Sánchez in the pecking order not so long ago, but the Spaniard is now set to start a third successive match.
Joël Veltman came off the bench at the weekend so is set to return at right-back, with Pascal Groß moving back into midfield at Julio Enciso’s expense.
Roberto De Zerbi confirmed on Tuesday that 18 year old Facundo Buonanotte would start in the league for the first time, so it’ll be interesting to see who he comes in for.
Brighton haven’t beaten Forest in the top-flight since 1980; will that change here?
Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Sánchez; Veltman, Dunk, Webster, Estupiñán; Caicedo, Groß, Buonanotte, March, Mitoma; Undav.
