Roberto De Zerbi is still looking for his first three points as Brighton boss after taking the role last month in the wake of Graham Potter being poached by Chelsea. While De Zerbi claimed an impressive draw at Anfield in his first game, defeats to Tottenham and Brentford have followed. The former was expected, but the latter was a disappointment, especially in light of the Seagull's overall limp performance.
A home game against Nottm Forest, who are currently ranked in 20th place is exactly the kind of fixture De Zerbi needs right now. This match takes on extra importance with tough games against Man City and Chelsea to follow. But it’s also a fixture of great significance for the away side ahead of their own set of difficult games. After visiting the Amex Stadium, Nottm Forrest will welcome Liverpool and before heading to North London to face table-topping Arsenal.
Steve Cooper is still trying to gel together an overhauled Nottm Forest side, but last weekend's defeat to fellow early-season strugglers Wolves was another damaging result for the newly promoted team. If Forest are to avoid an immediate return to the Championship they need to start picking up points soon. Another meek defeat, this time at the hands of Brighton, would put the midlands side in real bother heading into the packed pre-World Cup fixture list.
Here's how they line up:
Brighton: Sanchez, Veltman, Dunk, Webster, Lallana, March, Mac Allister, Caicedo, Trossard, Gross, Welbeck
Nottm Forest: Henderson, Williams, Cook, McKenna, Mangala, Aurier, Yates, Freuler, Lingard, Gibbs-White, Johnson
