Steve Cooper sent message as two changes made for Nottingham Forest clash with QPR

Nottingham Forest fans have been left disappointed by the absence of Richie Laryea from the starting eleven to take on QPR at the City Ground.

The Reds host Mark Warburton's side in a crucial fixture for both side's play-off aspirations but injuries in Steve Cooper's defensive department means he has had to name a weakened back-line. Steve Cook and Max Lowe are both set for significant spells in the treatment room having been ruled out for at least six weeks due to ankle and groin injuries respectively.

That means Cooper has been forced to recall Tobias Figueiredo to the starting eleven for the first time since the Boxing Day defeat at Middlesbrough. He teams up with Scott McKenna and Joe Worrall in a defensive trio.
