If there's one fixture we're absolutely due a win in, it's this one. Couldn't be a better time to do it either. Draw wouldn't be terrible but we're so due to beat these.

Look at Luton last season.  

[HayDen Traces]

Really need 3pts here with Chelsea and Arsenal next

[SiLvOR]

Really need to get this lot off our backs as our bogey team. They're not even that fucking good.

[geordie_b]

Would take the draw if offered.

[Vaj]

Albeit at home, the Brighton game two years ago was the one where I fully believed we were getting CL, we were fantastic in that game! Hopefully something similar next week as well. Difficult games for Liverpool and Villa and I can see Forest slipping up over the next two games 

[Elliottman]

I’ve got nothing but utter confidence going into this, think we’ll smash them and cruise to CL. 

[El Prontonise]

Absolutely hate this fixture.

[Mattoon]

Dreading this one, can't call it, looking at the two teams current trajectories you'd put us down for the win, but it's always a tricky one for us. Normally I'd say snap your hand off for a draw, but we need all 3 with so many teams sniffing round the top spots.

[huss9]

expecting nowt.

[Norseman]

Win this and we can possibly confirm CL with another win against Chelsea

It goes back to those disastrous FA cup performances under Pardew. We’ve always been shite at their place 

[Elma]

Watching MotD and there are a fair few empty seats at the AMEX. Is that normal? End of season apathy?

Yes, small fanbase and majority of them customers. Awful club tbh.

Nah. We ‘need’ to not lose by a margin big enough to dent our GD. Draw would be a very good result, win would be fantastic.

[kingxlnc]

Get revenge for the Fa cup defeat pls 

[r0cafella]

Nothing to fear from this lot despite or less than stellar record. We can't let history hold us. 

[Optimistic Nut]

Only real danger with these is the next 2-3 on the conveyor belt trying to impress to get their big move (Baleba, Mitoma...). Hipster version of Mike Ashley's Newcastle. It'll come unstuck soon enough. 

[Optimistic Nut]

£200m net spend and they've been caught up by the likes of Brentford, Bournemouth, Fulham, Palace. Massive summer for them, . I don't see many of the players they've spent £250m or so on in the last year going on for huge profits based on this season.

Any model where you sell your best players on a consistent basis is not a good model for footballing success.

What players will be unavailable for them?

Pedro suspended 

Rutter, Webster likely out for the season 

Van Hecke been out with concussion but due back next week 

[nufcjb]

A win here please. Two shit results against these already this season.

[Tsunami]

Well, we know Wellbeck will score.
