Add in a patched-together Villa midfield, several Brentford milestones, and a red card just before halftime, and what followed was one of the most courageous away performances in club history.

Redemption was on the menu at the GTech Community Stadium this afternoon, but unfortunately, the Bees were left with a bitter taste in their mouths. Despite dominating possession and entering the match with a formidable home record, Brentford fell 2-0 to a resilient Nottingham Forest side. On a day that should have celebrated Rico Henry’s 100th Premier League appearance, injuries to Kristoffer Ajer and Mikkel Damsgaard forced an early tactical reshuffle that the Bees never quite recovered from. While the effort was there, the clinical edge was missing, leaving Keith Andrews with plenty of questions as the team slides to 8th in the table.
