Both Nottingham Forest and Brentford enter this encounter on the back of Premier League victories. Nottingham Forest's impressive 2-1 away win against Tottenham has helped them bounce back from two consecutive defeats and significantly bolster their pursuit of a Champions League spot.
However, they will be eager to rediscover their winning touch at the City Ground after a recent narrow loss to Everton ended a strong home run.
A key strength for Forest has been their knack for opening the scoring, having done so in a league-leading 24 of their 33 Premier League matches this season.
Meanwhile, Brentford returned to winning ways with a convincing 4-2 home victory over Brighton, extending their current unbeaten streak to three matches.
The Bees will be looking to build on this momentum and potentially secure a top-half finish to the season. Their confidence on the road will be buoyed by their consistent scoring record, having found the net in each of their last seven away Premier League fixtures.
The focus of the above average values lays on Nottm Forest's home matches and Brentford's away matches played this season in the league.

Non-crucial goals scored: goals scored that increased an existing lead, or decreased the opponent's existing lead.
Non-crucial goals conceded: goals conceded that decreased an existing lead, or increased the opponent's existing lead.
Note regarding the Goals giving the lead and the Goals giving lead to opponent values: both the team and the opponent team might take the lead more than once during a single match,
so the total number of goals giving the lead to a team might be higher than the number of matches played by the team.
