Forest take on Ipswich side struggling at the opposite end of the division. The Tractor Boys are mired in the relegation places and will hope tonight’s cup clash can provide a welcome distraction to their Premier League plight.

Nottingham Forest team news

Nuno Espirito Santo was coy when discussing the availability of his squad during last week’s press conference. The Portuguese coach did rotate his side for the fourth round and could again look to utilise the depth in his squad.

Danilo, Alex Moreno, Jota Silva and Ramon Sosa are among those will be hoping to earn recalls to the starting side this evening.

Back-up goalkeeper Carlos Miguel is out with a hamstring injury, so Forest will decide between retaining first-choice Matz Sels or bringing in Wayne Hennessey for the clash.
