Nottingham Forest will continue to tackle the challenge in front of them head on as they prepare for the final two games which will decide their Premier League fate.
Head coach Steve Cooper has made a point of openly discussing the Reds’ situation with his squad throughout the season, being keen not to have any “elephants in the room”. It is an approach he will maintain as the battle for survival reaches its climax.
Forest are in control of their own destiny, sitting outside of the relegation zone, but it remains nerve-wrackingly tight at the bottom of the table. And Cooper’s men are aware they have two tough matches ahead to see the campaign out, with Arsenal visiting the City Ground on Saturday and a trip to Crystal Palace on the final day.
