Their confidence is high after last week's 3-1 victory over Barnsley and the Whites travel to the City Ground hoping to maintain momentum.

The Trotters have climbed out of the Championship relegation zone. After a seven-match losing streak, they have now tasted defeat just once in their last nine games.

Striker Gary Madine has played a key part in their turnaround, scoring in wins over Norwich City and Barnsley and a draw at Sunderland.

Mark Warburton’s Forest will be looking to get back to winning ways after being beaten by Cardiff City and Ipswich Town.
