More markets for the Club Friendlies game, scheduled for August 16 at 9:00 AM ET.
Nottingham Forest enter the August 16 club friendly at the City Ground under new head coach Oliver Glasner, appointed in early July after Vitor Pereira’s exit, marking the club’s fifth managerial change in under a year. Glasner’s side has shown positive pre-season momentum, winning four of five matches despite a 4-1 loss to Sporting CP, while integrating new signing Xaver Schlager and targeting further additions before the September window closes. Stade Brest 29, managed by Julien Lachuer since June following Eric Roy, arrive off a 12th-place Ligue 1 finish and will likely face a rotated Forest lineup testing early tactical adjustments. Home advantage, Premier League depth, and the new-manager bounce shape trader consensus around Forest control, though Brest’s organized defensive setup and the low-stakes friendly nature introduce realistic scope for a competitive or goal-heavy outcome.
