Nottingham Forest vs Brentford LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow all the action from The City Ground
Follow live coverage as Nottingham Forest face Brentford today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.
The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will be chasing Pep Guardiola's side, but just as fascinating will be the race for Champions League places, with more teams than ever before having designs on top-four finishes. Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.
Meanwhile, it's Southampton, Leicester City and Ipswich Town who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:

BIG CHANCE FOR WOOD!! Wood may see that as a missed chance as Aina glanced at the imposing forward at the back post and clipped a ball in. Wood did not seem to get off the ground too well and could only divert his header wide of the left-hand post.

INCHES AWAY FROM NORGAARD!! A dink into the box sees the Brentford enforcer strain everything to get his head on the ball but narrowly misses the flight of it. That could have spelled trouble for the home side had he made contact.

Substitution Elliot Junior Anderson Taiwo Micheal Awoniyi

It looks like Awoniyi is being readied by Nuno Santo. Will he be brought on to play with Wood?

It is like a basketball game tonight as a ball whipped in from the Brentford right is cleared despite claims of a player being shoved in the back. The ball ends up at the other end as Forest break quickly, ending in a shot from Yates, whose dipping right-foot shot did not come down quickly enough to trouble the keeper.

Milenkovic eases his body into German attacker Schade who falls dramatically. The Brentford forward sees an opportunity to take a moment and rub his sore ankle.

CLOSE AGAIN FROM ELANGA!! The winger is easily the most dangerous player in red tonight. He races onto a ball inside the full-back Kayode, who treads water trying to keep up. Elanga nips inside the full-back and dances past van den Berg too, only to see his shot pushed away firmly by Flekken who got strong palms to the low shot that would have crept inside the far right post.
