Everton manager Sean Dyche says his players are "well travelled" and won't be intimidated by the City Ground crowd when they take on Nottingham Forest this Sunday.
The City Ground has been a fortress for Forest, playing a key part in their home form this season. Steve Cooper's side have claimed five wins on home soil, one of which was a 1-0 victory over Liverpool.
Everton, meanwhile, have only registered one victory on the road, while claiming four draws. Looking ahead to the game, Dyche acknowledged the 'good' atmosphere from Reds supporters, but insisted that will not affect his players' performance.

"I've seen them a few times at home, and they've got a good atmosphere there with the crowd because it's their first season back after so long," Dyche said in his press conference. "But like I say, they're all big games, they're all important games, these players are well travelled.
"They've been to a lot of big stadiums, a lot of stadiums with different fans, good, bad and indifferent, so it's just another pitch. They're all the same size so we take it on."
