Nottingham Forest v Brighton


Sky Bet Championship

Venue: The City Ground
Date: Saturday 4th March 2017
Kick-off: 15:00 GMT
Referee: Oliver Langford
Assistants: Neil Davies, James Wilson
Fourth official: Darren Bond



Nottingham Forest are without injured defensive trio Michael Mancienne, Matt Mills and Jack Hobbs.

Fit-again midfielder Chris Cohen is pushing to start after being on the bench for the draw with Wigan.

Brighton boss Chris Hughton has a dilemma at left-back, with Sebastien Pocognoli (groin) a major doubt and Gaetan Bong (knee) sidelined.

Liam Rosenior could make his return after six months out with ankle trouble or loanee Fikayo Tomori may start.

Centre-back Connor Goldson will miss the rest of the season with a cardiac issue.

Maybe it's recent results, maybe it's because it's getting towards the final bit of the season - but whatever the reason I'm nervous already today. Come on, The Albion!

This is the BIGGEST game of the season, if we LOSE then it's the play offs

If we fail today and Huddersfield get anything then I think it is only a matter of time before we drop into the playoffs.

This is a massive game after the way we choked after Newcastle's very jammy equaliser. We should have been able to hold on. It was another Burnley moment imo
