Match preview

Brentford host Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on 25 January 2026. Brentford sit 9th on 53 points and Nottingham Forest are 16th on 44. Brentford have won 3 of their last 5 (WDWWL), while Nottingham Forest have won 1 of 5 (LLLWD). In their last 2 meetings, Brentford won 1, Nottingham Forest won 1 and 0 ended level. These are probabilities from past results, not guarantees: football upsets happen every week.

How this is worked out

Each club has an Elo rating that moves after every result (bigger wins move it more, home sides get a small boost). We turn the rating gap into expected goals and use a Poisson model to get win, draw and loss chances. The prediction is locked at kick-off and never edited.

Probabilities, not promises. For analysis and entertainment only. 18+.
