"The hosts have been in good form recently but were hammered 4-0 at Aston Villa on Thursday night in the second leg of their Europa League semi-final. Newcastle come into the game on the back of a home win over Brighton that ended any fears of them being sucked into the relegation dogfight. It has still been a disappointing season for the Magpies although reports suggest they will stick with boss Eddie Howe for next season."
"Morgan Gibbs-White misses out altogether as he struggles to get over the serious facial injury he suffered at Chelsea. Matz Sels, Luca Netz, Dilane Bakwa and Taiwo Awoniyi start for the hosts with Murillo, Ibrahim Sangare, Ola Aina and Gibbs-White all sidelined. Nottingham Forest: Sels; Morato, Cunha, Milenkovic; Williams, Netz; Dominguez, Anderson, Bakwa, Jesus, Awoniyi"
"Lewis Miley is out for the rest of the season due to a broken leg suffered in training. Tino Livramento is also unlikely to play again this term while Fabian Schaar is not fit. Lewis Hall is recalled to what appears to be a five-man defence. Nick Woltemade gets another chance to impress. Miley and Joe Willock drop out of the XI that beat Brighton. Anthony Gordon is on the bench."
Nottingham Forest host Newcastle with a chance to all but secure their Premier League place for next season. A win would move them nine points clear of third-bottom West Ham, which has three matches left, including a game against title-chasing Arsenal. Forest also hold a vastly superior goal difference. The hosts have been in good recent form but were beaten 4-0 by Aston Villa in the second leg of their Europa League semi-final on Thursday. Newcastle enter after a home win over Brighton that eased relegation fears, though their season remains disappointing. Reports indicate Eddie Howe will stay as manager next season. Forest miss Morgan Gibbs-White through a serious facial injury, while Newcastle are without Lewis Miley for the rest of the season and are also affected by other fitness issues.
