What is at stake for Ipswich and Nottingham Forest?

Ipswich have been an entertaining watch in Premier League this season, winning three and losing four of their seven matches, scoring 11 times and conceding 15.

The Tractor Boys are up in 10th spot in the table and would actually move into sixth spot should they manage to overcome a struggling Forest side on Friday night.

Forest can take plenty of encouragement for what was a strong performance in a 1-0 defeat to Arsenal last time out, but the Reds are down in 19th spot in the table.

Oliver Glasner's side are the lowest goalscorers in the Premier League this season with five, but they have only conceded nine, which is a positive considering their current issues.

Friday's encounter is a big football match for both teams.
