Nottingham Forest vs. Brentford Bet Builder Tips: Mbeumo to hit the target in 15/2 treble
It is rather disappointing to see only one fixture in the Premier League on Sunday with Nottingham Forest against Brentford, the solitary game taking centre-stage at The City Ground. Here at bettingodds.com we’ve combined our favourite fancies for the afternoon into a Bet Builder which pays 15/2 with bet365.
Nottingham Forest vs Brentford Bet Builder Tips
Nottingham Forest have massively improved their away form this season after collecting just eight points on the road last season - fewer than any other side in 2022/23.
If they are to kick-on this season and not be involved in another relegation battle, their strong home form from the previous campaign must continue and the early signs look positive with four points from their first two matches in-front of their own fans.
Taiwo Awoniyi remains the most potent threat in attack for The Tricky Trees and we are kicking off our Bet Builder with the Nigerian to score anytime. Last season Awoniyi bagged six goals in eight league starts at The City Ground and after notching in each of his first three league appearances this season he set a new club record of scoring in seven consecutive top-flight matches.
Brentford have failed to keep a clean sheet in seven of their eight matches across all competitions this season and we fancy the Forest front-man to get his fourth of the season against The Bees.
Our remaining two selections both arrive from the Shots on Target market where we are first backing Morgan Gibbs-White to clear the Over 0.5 line. The 23-year-old has hit the target in both of his home matches so far this term, and looking back a little further he did so in the final three of last season, meaning this bet has clicked in his last five in front of his own fans.
In the absence of Ivan Toney, the impetus is on Bryan Mbeumo to provide more goals for Brentford. The Frenchman will be pleased with four in the first six matches of the season but it’s the shots on target market where we are backing him.
In total, Mbeumo has recorded seven shots on target in six appearances this term, with over 50% of his attempts testing goalkeepers. Combining him and Gibbs-White to clear the Over 0.5 line, along with Awoniyi to score pays 15/2 with bet365 in comparison to just 11/2 with Betfair,
