Head coach Steve Cooper hopes to have some more of Nottingham Forest’s walking wounded available again soon after Ryan Yates made his comeback against Everton.
The midfielder had been absent for more than a month due to illness, but came off the bench to tee up Brennan Johnson’s second goal of the afternoon to clinch a 2-2 draw at the City Ground.
Meanwhile, Serge Aurier was in the XI after recovering from a calf strain, while Renan Lodi got the green light having been a doubt with a groin problem.
