Nottingham Forest are due to play a behind-closed-doors friendly against Italian opposition this week, as part of their international break schedule.
Without a Premier League game for the next fortnight, Reds head coach Steve Cooper will be aiming to use that period to address a miserable run of form. There is plenty for the Welshman to mull over before his team return to action at Leicester City on October 3, and he will also get valuable time on the training pitch with his players.
A number of the Forest squad have linked up with their national squads. But for those remaining, a match against Palermo has been planned.
