Brighton vs Nottingham Forest Prediction

I am betting Forest 0.75 and under 2.75 goals scored in this match, Forest have really impressed me this season, they beat Liverpool at Anfield last week 1-0 and it was probably the only game this season that Liverpool have not played well in to some extent and it was more a case not allowed to play well in. Forest now travel to Brighton and will once again set up in their low block, which is formation/tactic of sitting deep and allowing team little to no space in behind and this is the exact formation/tactic Brighton have struggled against in recent seasons and as we saw only last weekend when they dropped points at home to newly promoted Ipswich Town who also employed a low block. I can't help but think if Liverpool can't break down a defence playing as well as the Forest one well Brighton are going to find it very difficult too do so as well and with Joao Pedro a doubt it only adds to both bets for me. Finally both Brighton's and Forest's games this season have averaged only 2 and 1.5 goals per match, so betting under 2.75 as well as Forest 0.75 feels the right way to go here in what should play a tighter match than the betting markets suggest.
