Nottingham Forest take on Fulham in the Championship this evening as the two teams look to end their respective four-game winless runs.
Forest have yet to win since selling star winger Oliver Burke to RB Leipzig, and Saturday’s defeat to Sheffield Wednesday means it’s now just two points from the last four games.
Tonight, manager Philippe Montanier has handed a start to striker Nicklas Bendtner, and he’ll be supported from wide areas by fellow recent signings Mustapha Carayol and Nicolao Dumitru, with all three looking to kickstart their Forest careers.
Ex-Fulham man Pajtim Kasami starts in midfield, whilst there are places on the Forest bench for Matt Mills, Hildeberto Pereira, Lica and Apostolos Vellios.
Meanwhile, Fulham have also taken just two points from the last four games, and were beaten 4-0 at home by Bristol City over the weekend.
Slavisa Jokanovic will want to end the slump this evening, and he’s named a strong team containing David Button, Icelandic Euro 2016 hero Ragnar Sigurdsson, veteran Scott Parker and Chelsea loanee Lucas Piazon.
Tom Cairney and Matt Smith also start, but summer signings Stefan Johansen, Jozabed and Chris Martin all have to make do with places on the bench, alongside teenage sensation Ryan Sessegnon.
