Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest we don't have an obvious winner here, but the evidence does point towards the conclusion that Brentford and Nottm Forest will score at least a couple of goals between them. We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Keith Andrews or Sean Dyche has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s of late either. The bookmakers predict over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.30 equating to roughly a 76% probability.
