Head coach Steve Cooper is refusing to dwell on Nottingham Forest’s rotten injury luck as the season reaches a decisive period.
For much of the campaign, the Reds have been hit hard by a significant number of absentees. At different times, key players have spent long spells on the treatment table.
And although some are making their way back, others now find themselves on the sidelines, with Chris Wood ruled out until mid-July. Meanwhile, Serge Aurier, Andre Ayew, Gustavo Scarpa and Brennan Johnson are all doubts to face Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday.
