Nottingham Forest face Tottenham at the City Ground this afternoon, looking to get back to winning ways in the Premier League.
The Reds beat FC Utrecht in the Europa League on Thursday, with Nicolas Dominguez captaining the side and leading by example against the Eredivisie team.
However, like a lot of positions, there are shirts up for grabs and after rotating and getting a victory, it will be fascinating to see what Sean Dyche picks today.
Ahead of the clash with the North London outfit, we looked at how Forest might decide to line up against Thomas Frank’s team.
Nottingham Forest predicted team vs Tottenham
We think Dyche will go back to basics today and begin the match with some of his rested first-team players getting a nod to return to the team.
Dyche will be under no illusions that he needs to start overseeing some more Premier League wins, with Forest dangerously close to the relegation zone.

Across the back four, Murillo could finally link up with Nikola Milenkovic once again, whilst Nicolo Savona and Neco Williams look set to start.
In midfield, both Elliot Anderson and Ibrahim Sangare came on at half-time in Utrecht, but both should get the chance to start today against Spurs.
That will mean that Douglas Luiz doesn’t get the chance to build on his comeback performance in midweek but he will be a decent option from the bench.
All eyes will be on Morgan Gibbs-White in this one after his failed move to Tottenham during the summer, and he should start in the number 10 role.
