For Nottingham Forest, it's a similar line-up to what Nuno Espirito Santo has deployed in recent weeks.

The defensive pillar of Ryan Yates and Nicolas Dominguez was deployed by Nuno.
Anthony Elanga, Morgan Gibbs-White and Jota Silva are in attack.
With Chris Wood right up front as the lone striker.
