A resurgent Nottingham Forest outfit will be looking to climb further away from the Premier League relegation zone when they face Brighton & Hove Albion in their latest top-light fixture.

Here, Sports Mole provides details of how to tune into this fixture.

What time does Nottingham Forest vs. Brighton kick off?

What is at stake for Nottingham Forest and Brighton?

At the time of writing, Nottingham Forest are preparing for a Europa League clash with Malmo - a repeat of their triumphant 1979 European Cup final - and have impressed in recent weeks under new head coach Sean Dyche.

Seven points have been picked up by the Tricky Trees across their last three Premier League games, including a statement 3-0 away victory over reigning champions Liverpool, which helped them climb out of the relegation zone and up to 16th place.

A third successive top-flight win for Forest could see them move four points clear of the bottom three, if other results also go their way, while three points secured for Brighton could see them rise into the top four.

Fabian Hurzeler's Seagulls currently sit sixth in the table with 19 points and have come out on top in three of their last five league matches, including a 2-1 home success over Brentford last weekend.
