Forest v Owls
Pre match comments....
In any season a point at Derby is a top outcome. Let’s bank it and look at Forest as a decent chance for three points.
Derby’s home form is far better than Forest’s.
Forest will be MUCH tougher on Saturday afternoon.
But both Forest and Bristol City will be miles above Derby this season. If we can get 4 points from the next two games then I will be a bit more optimistic. But we just cant hold onto a lead and that will ultimately cost us
Not heard the injury latest so could be subject to change but my team would be:
Dawson
Palmer Iorfa Lees Fox
Reach Luongo Bannan Harris
Forestieri Fletcher
Usually id pick Borner but Lees had a good game on Wednesday. Hope Fessi is fit.
Doubt that Forestieri will play for us again, be injured til Jan then flogged.
I'd go
Dawson
Palmer Iorfa Borner Fox
Reach Lee Luongo Bannan Harris
Fletcher
Be a tough battle tomorrow, not a game we should be going 2 up front in. Lee up there supporting Fletcher. Also not having an out and out DM means we cant afford to go lightweight with 2, so has to be 3.
The changes obviously conceded in the last 4 games when Borner wasn't on pitch, so bring him back in for Lees. Hutchinson banned, Odubajo too but would drop him either way, bring in Luongo and Palmer.
Bring Nuhiu on with 20 to go, either as a switch to 2 if needing a goal or swap for Fletcher if not. Other subs dont matter cos arent good enough.
