Nottingham Forest won’t change their approach when they head to Sheffield United in the play-offs on Saturday.
The Reds will still look to get on the front foot and play to win. But head coach Steve Cooper says he will be mindful of the two-legged nature of the semi-finals, with the return fixture to come at the City Ground on Tuesday night.
The Welshman is keen for his squad to understand the “context” around the game as they aim to make sure there is all to play for on the banks of the Trent. And he knows there is a balance to be struck, too, between embracing the occasion and getting caught up in the emotion, given the nature of what is at stake.
