Preview: Nottingham Forest vs. Blackpool

Nottm Forest vs. Blackpool

Two promotion hopefuls meet in the Championship this Saturday as Nottingham Forest play host to Blackpool.

The visitors head into the game in fourth place in the table, with just one point separating them from their opponents in sixth.

Billy Davies's side suffered a humbling 3-1 defeat at Yeovil Town last weekend, and will be keen to bounce back when they take on the Tangerines.

Blackpool have been draw specialists of late, with five of their last six matches ending in a stalemate, the latest being last weekend's 2-2 tie with Blackburn Rovers.

Three out of the last five matches between these two sides have ended in a draw, with both claiming a win apiece in the other two.
