Coventry Preview
Nottingham Forest will be aiming to keep the pressure on West Bromwich Albion when they face Coventry at The Ricoh Arena tomorrow (kick-off 7.45pm).
The Reds are currently third and just a point adrift of Albion, who are home to Scunthorpe tomorrow evening.
Forest returned to winning ways on Saturday after their disappointment at Derby, beating Sheffield Wednesday.
Coventry are unbeaten at home in four Championship outings and secured a point from a 1-1 draw at Bristol City on Saturday.
Team news
Forest have no fresh injury concerns ahead of the short trip to Coventry but manager Billy Davies has decisions to make.
Paul Anderson and Radoslaw Majewski, who were left out of his starting line-up on Saturday, are pushing for returns.
Coventry are likely to be without Ben Turner, Marcus Hall and Isaac Osbourne.
Turner and Hall, who had a brief spell with Forest earlier in this career, are back in training but Osbourne is unlikely to play again this season after knee surgery.
Their key man
The sale of Leon Best to Newcastle last week has thrown the spotlight at The Ricoh Arena on the likes of Clinton Morrison.
There's now added pressure on the 30 year old Republic of Ireland international to contribute even more goals to The Sky Blues' cause.
The former Crystal Palace and Birmingham man was the club's top scorer last season and has helped himself to nine goals so far this term.
What the record books say
Forest made it 42 wins over Coventry with a 2-0 success at The City Ground in December.
Goals from Robert Earnshaw and Dexter Blackstock helped The Reds overcome their Midlands rivals - although Coventry made life tough for Billy Davies' men.
Earnshaw forged a breakthrough three minutes before half-time when he calmly beat Kieren Westwood following a swift counter attack.
Forest's No.1 Lee Camp was forced to make a sprawling save to deny Clinton Morrison as Coventry went in search of an equaliser early in the second half.
And Forest had to wait until 12 minutes from time before effectively sealing the points as Blackstock fired home from a tight angle after great work by substitute Dele Adebola.
Former Coventry man Adebola had a chance to get on the scoresheet himself in the dying seconds as he blasted over after being sent clear.
Forest: Camp, Gunter, Morgan, Wilson, Shorey, Majewski (McGugan 84), McKenna, Cohen, Tyson (McCleary 62), Blackstock, Earnshaw (Adebola 74). Subs not used: Smith, Chambers, Anderson, McGoldrick.
Coventry: Westwood, Cranie, Wood, Barnett, Van Aanholt, McIndoe, Gunnarsson, Cork (Clingan 70), Bell (Eastwood 64), Best (Madine 83), Morrison. Subs not used: Ireland, Wright, McPake, Ward.
