Team News: Britt Assombalonga starts for Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest have welcomed back Britt Assombalonga into their starting lineup after the forward appeared as a half-time substitute against Brentford in midweek.

Matty Fryatt returns from injury to partner him up front as Forest look to avoid extending their 10-game winless streak in all competitions.

Norwich City, meanwhile, are also hoping to arrest their poor recent form and bring in Carlos Cuellar, Bradley Johnson and Lewis Grabban.

The trio replace Steven Whittaker, Nathan Redmond and Kyle Lafferty.

Nottingham Forest: Darlow; Harding, Mancienne, Hunt, Lascelles; Antonio, Ince, Tesche, Osborn, Fryatt, Assombalonga

Norwich City: Ruddy; Martin, Cuellar, Turner, Olsson; O'Neil, Tettey, Johnson; Howson; Grabban, Jerome
