Head coach Steve Cooper has named his Nottingham Forest team to face Manchester United in this afternoon’s Premier League clash.
The Reds find themselves in the relegation zone ahead of kick-off, having gone nine games without a win. But it remains tight at the bottom end of the table, with 17th-placed Everton above the dotted line on goal difference and 16th-placed Leeds United only two points ahead.
A 2-0 defeat at Aston Villa last time out extended Forest’s miserable run, albeit they did put in a better performance. It also came with more bad news on the injury front as Cheikhou Kouyate and Moussa Niakhate both limped off with hamstring problems.
