Head coach Steve Cooper has named his Nottingham Forest team to face Leicester City in this afternoon’s crunch clash.
It was a memorable evening on the banks of the Trent last time out as the Reds progressed to the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup with a dramatic win over Wolverhampton Wanderers. And they will be aiming for another positive result today, against their East Midlands rivals.
The teams are level on points in the table, both on 17, with Forest having climbed to 15th spot after beating Southampton in their last Premier League match. Cooper is having to contend with a significant injury list, however.
