Team News: Darius Henderson replaces Dexter Blackstock for Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest manager Billy Davies has been forced to make one change for this afternoon's trip to promotion rivals Hull City.

Dexter Blackstock is ruled out with a hamstring injury sustained last weekend and is replaced by Darius Henderson.

Hull boss Steve Bruce has also made just a single change to his starting XI, with Stephen Quinn taking the place of Alex Bruce in midfield.

Egyptian striker Gedo is fit to start despite limping out of the game at Burnley last Friday evening.

Hull: Stockdale, Chester, Hobbs, Koren, McShane, Gedo, Elmohamady, Quinn, Brady, Meyler, Boyd

Forest: Darlow, Jara Reyes, Ward, Collins (c), Cohen, Lansbury, Guedioura, Majewski, Reid, Cox, Henderson
