Both of these sides have begun the Premier League season with two wins and two draws and each will be aiming to keep their unbeaten record intact on Sunday.

History suggests the Seagulls should prevail given that they did the double over the Reds last term and are unbeaten in four home meetings with Sunday’s visitors, although Forest will be fired up after a shock 1-0 win at Anfield last Saturday. 

Brighton have lost just four of their last 23 home games, though, so a close tie should be expected.  

Both teams have scored in three of Forest’s five games this term and with both sides in good form that trend could continue at the Amex.

Solly March is still some way off a return and this game has come too soon for Matt O’Riley, James Milner and Brajan Gruda, although that trio could return next month. 

Key forward Joao Pedro, who netted a brace against Nottingham Forest last term, is a doubt and will be assessed on Saturday.

Midfield pair Ibrahim Sangare and Danilo are both sidelined for the foreseeable future and Willy Boly is also still out, although he is closer to a return than his fellow absentees.
