Tottenham Hotspur managing director Fabio Paratici was in attendance at the City Ground as part of a scouting mission for the club.
Nottingham Forest played host to Leicester City in a local rivalry, with the Championship side already having beaten higher league opposition in Arsenal in the third round of the competition.
The Foxes were out to win the FA Cup again after doing so last year for the first time in their history, beating Chelsea at Wembley thanks to a Youri Tielemans strike.
