Player(s) to watch:

• Hugo Ekitike will be looking to come up with a top performance here. He started off the season well, but hasn’t been able to find the net in the last few matches. Hugo Ekitike will be looking to step up and help his side secure three important points here. In 10 Premier League appearances, he has found the net three times.
• Morgan Gibbs-White is going to play an important role both in the midfield and the attacking front for Nottingham Forest. He can score goals and create innovative plays, which will surely trouble the opponent’s defence. He has scored a goal each in his last two Premier League appearances and will be keen to keep his streak going against the defending champions.
