What would change our mind?
The developments we would react to before kick-off.
If Forest name a weakened XI
Rotation or a key absence would take several points off their win chance; check line-ups an hour before kick-off.
If Brentford score first
The favourite has to chase, and both the draw and the upset become much more likely.
If a red card comes in the first hour
Ten men changes the expected-goals picture entirely, whichever side it hits.
The story of Forest vs Brentford
Nottingham Forest take on Brentford in front of their own fans, and the Wazir Win numbers lean Forest's way. The gap in expected goals (1.71 for Forest, 1.08 for Brentford) is the clearest signal, and it is what produces our 52% for Forest. Brentford's best route is to keep it level into the last half-hour, when the draw becomes a live result.
