Nottingham Forest and Brentford meet at The City Ground on Wednesday 5th November in what will be a match Nottingham Forest will be desperate to win after a recent run of poor results winning none of their last 6 fixtures putting them bottom of the form guide where as Brentford will be looking to continue their momentum after a deserved and impressive win against Derby County on Saturday.
Stuart Pearce's men could see returns of Matty Fryatt and Kelvin Wilson. Fryatt has been out with a groin injury but Wilson was missing due to personal issues. Forest should also have captain Michael Mancienne fit even though he ended the previous 3-0 defeat to Huddersfield with a limp.
As Brentford star defender Alan McCormack is out for the long term with an ankle injury: Moses Odubajo should keep his place after an impressive performance against Derby previously. Stuart Dallas may return to Brentford's starting 11 after coming off the bench and scoring the winner last time against Derby and may replace either Toumani Diagouraga or Jon Toral. Sam Saunders is likely to remain on the bench as he was an unused substitute against Derby.
Overall, this will be a match both teams will be eager to win but following a recent win and Forest's recent poor run: Brentford may come into this one as favourites.
