Brighton are unbeaten so far in the Premier League this season – they have never remained without defeat in their first five games of a top-flight season, last doing so in any division in the 2015-16 Championship season.

Nottingham Forest have an equal record to their hosts, winning two and drawing two so far this season. The last time they opened a season without defeat in their first five games was in the 2018-19 season in the Championship. In the top flight, it has not happened since the 1995-96 season.
