Forest team for West Ham clash confirmed
Reds unchanged for third match
Bench unchanged from trip to Palace
Nottingham Forest’s starting XI for the Premier League clash against West Ham United at the City Ground has been announced.
The Reds remain unchanged for the third successive fixture, having recorded a 3-1 win against Brentford on the opening weekend of the campaign, before claiming a point against Crystal Palace last weekend.
Friday’s signing, Nicoló Savona is not eligible for today’s matchday squad after joining the Reds late on in the evening.
Matz Sels continues in goal behind the familiar back four of Ola Aina and Neco Williams in the full-back positions and Nikola Milenković and Murillo lining up in the heart of our defence.
Ibrahim Sangaré and Elliot Anderson, fresh from his maiden senior England call-up in midweek, provide the legs in the middle of the park behind Morgan Gibbs-White, who skippers the Reds just behind the Forest attack.
The width is provided by Dan Ndoye and Callum Hudson-Odoi, with both wingers now off the mark for the season after our first two matches.
Chris Wood leads the Reds’ attack.
