Nottingham Forest’s hopes of Champions League football hang in the balance, with West Ham up next for the Tricky Trees.

Forest’s slip-up against Leicester City has left their top-five ambitions in doubt heading into the final two games, currently sitting seventh in the Premier League table.

European football has already been secured, but Nuno Espirito Santo’s side will no doubt want to go one better and secure Champions League qualification.

Sat only one point behind fifth-placed Chelsea, Forest will recognise the need for three points at the London Stadium ahead of their final day clash against the Blues.

The Hammers’ form this season will give Forest hope heading into the game, but West Ham will present a difficult test for the Tricky Trees.

Nottingham Forest team/injury news

Forest will be without Taiwo Awoniyi for their trip down south after the striker picked up a serious abdominal injury against West Ham. Awoniyi had to have emergency surgery on Monday and still remains in hospital at the time of writing.

Callum Hudson-Odoi’s hamstring injury has ruled him out of the last two games, and it is currently unknown whether the winger will return before the season ends.

Murillo also missed the Leicester clash through injury, but has been able to join in with training at points, suggesting he may be fit enough for the visit to the London Stadium.
