Nottingham Forest vs. Everton team news: Anthony Elanga, Chris Wood decisions made by Nuno Espirito Santo

Nottingham Forest and Everton have announced their starting lineups for Saturday's Premier League game at the City Ground.

Nuno Espirito Santo hinted at his pre-match press conference that the likes of Anthony Elanga and Chris Wood could be in contention despite being regarded as fitness doubts.

While Elanga has only been selected on the substitutes' bench, Wood makes his first appearance since the March international break after recovering from a hip injury.

Nuno has made a total of three alterations and seemingly reverted to a back four, with Alex Moreno returning at left-back after being ineligible to face parent club Aston Villa last time out.

Jota Silva is also provided with just his fifth Premier League start of the campaign, with Morato and Ryan Yates only being named as replacements.

Meanwhile, David Moyes has made a total of three alterations to the team that started the 1-1 draw with Everton last weekend.

Most notably, Chelsea loanee Armando Broja has been provided with a start in attack, taking the spot of Beto.

James Garner returns in central midfield to replace Tim Iroegbunam, while Vitaly Mykolenko is named at left-back ahead of Nathan Patterson.
