Is Brighton vs Nottingham Forest on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch FA Cup quarter-final

Brighton face Nottingham Forest today in the FA Cup quarter-finals, with both sides vying for a place in the last four at Wembley.

Forest have been perhaps the most surprising team of the Premier League season so far, with Nuno Espirito Santo’s men chasing Champions League qualification and sitting in third.

One of their most impressive performances this term saw them complete a 7-0 demolition of the Seagulls in February, but they will be way today as they look to make a first FA Cup semi-final since 1991.

Brighton have had a brilliant run of form since that loss, and though they sit seven points behind Forest in seventh, some will have them as favourites to take a place in the semi-finals and perhaps go one better in making their first final since 1983.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the match.

When is Brighton vs Nottingham Forest?

The FA Cup quarter-final will kick off at 5.15pm on Saturday, 29 March at the Amex Stadium in Brighton.

How can I watch it?
