What is at stake for West Ham and Nottingham Forest?

Nuno is facing a battle to keep his job after his team fell to a heavy 3-0 defeat in Saturday's away clash against another of his former clubs Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The Hammers became the first team to lose to Wolves in the Premier League this season and have now gone nine games without a win since beating Burnley on November 8.

Tuesday's game offers West Ham the chance to reduce the gap to safety to just one point, while for Forest, they can extend their four-point cushion to the drop zone.

Forest boss Sean Dyche is also under pressure to pick up a positive result after his side fell to a fourth consecutive defeat in Saturday's away meeting with Aston Villa.

The Tricky Trees are also seeking revenge for the 3-0 defeat that they suffered in the reverse meeting with West Ham in August, which proved to be Nuno's final game in charge of the East Midlands club.
