The Premier League returns to the fold with another round of matches this weekend as Nottingham Forest lock horns with an impressive Brentford side in an important encounter at the Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday.
Brentford vs Nottingham Forest Preview
Nottingham Forest are currently in 17th place in the Premier League standings and have struggled to cope with the rigors of the top flight this season. The away side stunned Brighton & Hove Albion with a 3-1 victory this week and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.
Brentford, on the other hand, are in ninth place in the league table at the moment and have been impressive this season. The Bees eased past Chelsea by a 2-0 margin in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.
