Friday’s trip to Luton Town is the kind of challenge Nottingham Forest must meet head-on in order to be “an achieving team”, according to boss Steve Cooper.
The Reds make the trip to Kenilworth Road on Friday in terrific form, having recorded five straight wins and gone 10 unbeaten in the Championship. They are up to fourth in the table, just six points below second-placed Bournemouth ahead of the lunchtime showdown.
But they will come up against a Hatters side with top-six ambitions of their own. Nathan Jones’ men are a place and two points below Forest, although have played two games more.
