Nottingham Forest vs Brighton & Hove Albion Prediction and Betting Tips | November 30th 2025
Nottingham Forest will invite Brighton & Hove Albion to the City Ground in the Premier League on Sunday. Brighton have five wins from 12 games, two more than the visitors, and have a seven-point lead over them.
Nottingham have enjoyed a great run of form, and they are unbeaten in their last five games across all competitions. They defeated Liverpool 3-0 away in the league last week, thanks to goals from Murillo, Nicolò Savona, and Morgan Gibbs-White. They made it three wins from three games on Thursday, with a 3-0 home triumph over Malmo in the UEFA Europa League.
Thanks for the submission!
The visitors are unbeaten in their last three games. They resumed their league campaign after the international break with a 2-1 home win over Brentford. They conceded in the 29th minute, but goals from Danny Welbeck and Jack Hinshelwood after the break helped them complete their comeback. Brentford were awarded a penalty in stoppage time, and Bart Verbruggen denied Igor Thiago his second goal of the match.

Nottingham Forest vs Brighton & Hove Albion Prediction
The Tricky Trees are on a three-game winning streak across all competitions, scoring three goals apiece in each of them, and will look to build on that form. They have won three of their last four home games in this fixture, scoring 15 goals.
Morgan Gibbs-White has a knock and is a major doubt for this match. Oleksandr Zinchenko, Dilane Bakwa, Douglas Luiz, Chris Wood, and Olaoluwa Aina remain sidelined for the hosts.
The Seagulls have suffered four defeats across all competitions this season, with all of them registered in away games. They failed to score in two of their three meetings against Forest last season and will look to improve upon that record.
Kaoru Mitoma, James Milner, Solomon March, and Adam Webster are the confirmed absentees for the visitors.
The hosts head into the match on a three-game winning streak, scoring nine goals while conceding just once. With that in mind, and considering their recent record in this fixture, we back them to eke out a narrow win.
