Brighton moved on from their Europa League hammering in midweek with an edgy 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest.
The winning goal came in scrappy fashion after 29 minutes when Forest goalkeeper Matz Sels flapped at a Pascal Gross set-piece and the ball bounced in off defender Andrew Omobamidele.
Brighton were far from their fluid best, perhaps suffering a hangover from their 4-0 defeat to Roma, but Forest couldn't capitalise with Divock Origi offering up two great one-on-one chances.
Forest, who dominated the second half, felt aggrieved that Brighton midfielder Jakub Moder avoided a 67th-minute red card for a lunging challenge on Neco Williams that only drew a yellow card.
The result lifts Brighton into eighth place, five points off Manchester United in sixth. Meanwhile, Forest remain looking over their shoulder, just three points above Luton in the relegation zone.
