Eimer knows Brentford are without forward Ivan Toney, who led the team with 20 goals last season but is serving an eight-month suspension for gambling.

The 24-year-old Mbeumo registered a brace in Brentford's 3-0 triumph over Fulham and also scored in draws against Tottenham and Bournemouth.

The expert also is aware that Nottingham Forest have been tremendous at home during league play, losing only two of their last 17 EPL matches at City Ground. The Tricky Trees converted in each of their first five contests this season, with striker Taiwo Awoniyi leading the charge with three goals. The 26-year-old Nigerian opened the campaign with a three-game goal-scoring streak and notched an assist in each of the team's next two matches prior to the shutout loss to Manchester City.
