Brighton vs Nottingham Forest: Premier League preview

Thirty-four points by the end of February is usually safe enough regardless but Brighton can be grateful that the teams below them left enough room to start 2026 poorly without needing to look over their shoulders.

Since the turn of the year, the Seagulls have won twice – 2-0 wins in their first and most recent matches of 2026 – either side of a six-match winless run during which they averaged less than a goal per game.

Suggestions of a timid management style abound. Brighton have strengths and weaknesses like any other team in the Premier League but there is, at times, a sense that there's more to their squad than getting turned over or drawing 1-1.

They showed as much against seventh-placed Brentford last Saturday, winning 2-0 at the Gtech Community Stadium. Brentford weren't at their best and Brighton saw them off.

The supporters who gather at the Amex on Sunday will expect to see that boost converted into bravery, perhaps even a little bit of swagger.

There have been times this season when Forest would have been the perfect opponents for this exact scenario, likely to show up vulnerable and ripe for the taking. They're not so predictable under Vitor Pereira but the Seagulls are heavy favourites.

Brighton scored right at the end of either half to win 2-0 at the City Ground in late November, stifling Sean Dyche's mini-revival as the third Forest manager of the season and counting.

That fixture was a 7-0 win for Forest last season. If that doesn't sum up their shifting sands, nothing will. Brighton will expect more than the 2-2 they achieved in the home game in 2024-25.
