THE PREDICTION
Brentford threw away a two-goal lead in midweek to draw away at Derby, which now leaves them five points adrift of second place and those all-important automatic promotion spots. They need to get back to winning ways here against Nottingham Forest, who have failed to win any of their last five league games, picking up just two points in the process. Each of those five matches have seen Forest fail to keep a clean sheet and Brentford with home advantage in their favour, should take advantage here with their imposing attack led by freescoring striker Ivan Toney expected to overwhelm their opponents and lead the Bees to an important victory.
