Nottingham Forest host Manchester United in a Premier League encounter this evening with Nuno Espirito Santo’s men aiming to further secure their grip on a place in the top four.
Forest come into the match sitting third in the table, four points behind Arsenal in second and five ahead of Chelsea in fourth. Victory would move them one step closer to earning a spot in the Champions League next season but with a tightly contested battle happening below them any slip ups in the run in could prove costly.
Manchester United, meanwhile, are hoping to build on recent wins over Real Socidead and Leicester City. Ruben Amorim has stressed the need for his players to practice in his preferred 3-4-3 system and the international break came at a good time for the club. Defenders Harry Maguire and Leny Yoro are fit again and should lot back into the team as the Red Devils aim to end the year inside the top half of the table.
