Nottingham Forest travel to the capital tonight while they seek a vital three points to halt their four-game losing streak.
Sean Dyche’s side currently sits one place above the relegation zone but has struggled for momentum during a frightening festive period. The Tricky Trees must bounce back from a disappointing 3-1 defeat at Villa Park while navigating a significant injury and international availability crisis. Despite a long injury list, Forest remain four points clear of their opponents and could extend that gap significantly with a victory tonight.
Nottingham Forest Team News
Sean Dyche manages a severely depleted squad due to the Premier League’s AFCON exodus and a growing injury list. Willy Boly and Ibrahim Sangaré remain unavailable on international duty, while Chris Wood and Ryan Yates are still out with knee and thigh problems. In goal, Matz Sels is likely to return after John Victor suffered a calf injury at Aston Villa.
Furthermore, the manager faces late calls on the fitness of Callum Hudson-Odoi and Dan Ndoye. Consequently, Dyche will likely rely on his senior core to maintain defensive discipline in what promises to be a cagey encounter. In attack, Igor Jesus is set to lead the line again, supported by Morgan Gibbs-White, who remains the primary creative threat after netting a consolation goal at Villa Park.
Nottingham Forest Predicted Lineup
Nottingham Forest predicted XI: Sels; Savona, Milenkovic, Murillo, Williams; Anderson, Dominguez; Hutchinson, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi; Jesus
