whilst I've had a blind spot for Brighton this season, they played 120 minutes plus pens on Sunday, 3 days later they're away to Forest who are hard to beat at home, only 5 losses from 16 which considering they're second bottom is far better than you'd think, it's their won 1, drawn 3 and lost 12 away from home that has them in the relegation zone. The feeling of dejection is probably still lingering for Brighton too, whilst I don't like the 'they have to win' angle in general it is prevalent here knowing if they don't win they home games from here on in then they're down. Ferguson still only rated 25% for this game as well.
I did Forest this morning. It is a value price although "you can't eat value" as the fella once said. The plan is that Forest score first then manage things accordingly, that's my plan anyway. 0-0 @ 17.5, I had a bit of that as well.

Brighton at times can be guilty of overplaying, while Forest are normally difficult to bet in any game, this appears to align for them given the O/Ps reasoning. 6.2 will do
