Nottingham Forest's midweek fixture against Brentford is pivotal as the Premier League season nears its end. Nottingham currently sits sixth in the table, vying for a Europa League slot. Their recent FA Cup semi-final appearance is their first since 1991. Despite a loss to Manchester City, they remain optimistic, with potential to secure a second-place finish if they win their remaining games. Brentford, also aiming for European competition, adds to the high stakes of this rearranged match on May 1st.
It's that time of the season where European and FA Cup commitments mess with the calendar and a midweek game catches you off guard completely. This season, the Premier League drama will happen on a Thursday, as Nottingham Forest and Brentford play their rearranged fixture.
Nottingham Forest are enjoying a stellar season by their standards, currently sitting sixth which will secure a Europa League spot next season after the Premier League guaranteed five spots in the Champions League.
Winning against Brentford will see them move to third, a position they have occupied for much of the season and right in the fight for Champions League football next season.
