Nottingham Forest have been dealt a significant injury setback with the news that defenders Steve Cook and Max Lowe both face six weeks on the sidelines.
The duo were forced off in Saturday’s 4-0 rout of Reading, with Sheffield United loanee Lowe departing in the first half and January signing Cook right at the end of the victory.
It is Lowe’s second spell out of action this season with a groin issue after he missed two months towards the end of last year, while his teammate is ruled out with an ankle problem.
