Nottingham Forest comes unmotivated for this match after a defeat, by 0-1, against Swansea, adding the third consecutive defeat in this second English division.Usually, when the home team invests in the offensive process, they do so through the left flank, taking advantage of the depth offered by winger Sammy Ameobi.Taking into account the tactical system used, one of the great strengths of the home team is the attack through the flanks.Lyle Taylor is one of the great highlights so far, this being the best scorer with 4 goals scored.For this fixture, the coach Chris Hughton won’t count on Joe Worrall, Tyler Blackett, Fouad Bachirou, Samba Sow, Lewis Grabban and Luke Freeman, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Brice Samba, Yuri Ribeiro, Joe Worrall, Cyrus Christie, Tobias Figueiredo, Joe Lolley, Harry Arter, Cafú, Ryan Yates, Anthony Knockaert, Lyle Taylor.
