Preamble
After the distraction of an FA Cup semi-final and a visit to Wembley, Forest are again to the day job of battling for a Champions League place. It’s been an unbelievable season on the Metropolis Floor, no matter whether or not they end within the prime 5 or not. Nuno Espirito Santo and his squad might be decided to not let a probably feat slip from their grasp.
Forest at present sit sixth however have a sport in hand on their rivals and a win tonight will take them as much as third, for twenty-four hours no less than. Three of the 5 remaining video games are at residence, together with the troublesome process of Chelsea in a few weeks. 9 factors would be the intention from these fixtures as they give the impression of being to battle off the competitors for a profitable European tour.
Brentford, alternatively, are eleventh and probably on the seaside with solely a restricted likelihood of qualifying for Europe. I’m positive Thomas Frank won’t let his crew take it simple but it surely should be troublesome to pay attention when there may be nearly nothing to play for.
