Ben Wilkinson’s side take on the Tricky Trees, with kick-off at the Joie Stadium scheduled for 19:00 (UK) on Friday 27 February.
After our latest triumph, a 6-0 win over Wolves, we secured a third successive league win for the first time this season. Our next encounter provides us with the opportunity to extend our advantage on 17th place Sunderland to 10 points, therefore remaining in the play-off places with five games to go.
The Joie has proved to be a fortress in recent months as we have won five games in a row, scoring twenty-four and only conceding one during that time.
Standing in our way is a Forest side who have the aspirations to reach the play-offs come April. Currently they sit in 20th place, only one point off a Middlesborough team who are in the playoff spots as it stands.
So, can City beat Forest to branch closer to the play-offs?
