Head coach Steve Cooper must grapple with something of a dilemma for Nottingham Forest’s trip to Hull City on Saturday.
It is the last game of the regular season. But for the Reds, there is little riding on the outcome, other than trying to secure third place - and that may well affect the manager’s team selection.
Tuesday night’s defeat at Bournemouth ended Forest’s automatic promotion hopes, leaving Cooper to prepare for the play-offs. When it comes to taking on the Tigers, he must decide whether to give some of his players a rest ready for the big challenges to come.
