Unsung hero
Joe Worrall has hailed one of Nottingham Forest’s “unsung heroes”, as Sabri Lamouchi’s side look to mount a final push for promotion.
Plenty of Reds players have caught the eye this season, with the likes of Matty Cash, Brice Samba and Samba Sow all earning plaudits - to name a few.
There is one member of the squad who goes under the radar more than most, however, despite becoming a mainstay of the team.
Tobias Figueiredo had to bide his time early on in the campaign, as Michael Dawson formed a solid centre-back partnership with Worrall.
Transfer talk
“Cardiff's potential promotion could open the door for a higher calibre of player in their right-back position next season”, according to Wales Online.
Given Matty Cash’s terrific form so far this season, it’s no surprise to see the midfielder-cum-defender linked with a move away from Nottingham Forest.
Such were the standard of Cash’s displays before the January transfer window opened, European giants AC Milan were monitoring his situation, along with Premier League outfit West Ham.
And now, Forest’s play-off rivals Cardiff City are said to be in the market for a new right-back, and Wales Online believe Cash would be a sound signing for Neil Harris’ Bluebirds, if they were to secure promotion back to the Premier League.
Looking a picture
Defender Joe Worrall says the City Ground display organised by Nottingham Forest supporters’ group Forza Garibaldi will “go down a storm” with the players.
Sabri Lamouchi’s side will play their first home game without any fans on Sunday, when Huddersfield Town are the visitors.
The Reds were back in Championship action last weekend with a 1-1 draw at Sheffield Wednesday, as games returned following a three-month suspension due to the coronavirus crisis.
For the remainder of the season, however, matches will take place in empty stadiums as they are played behind closed doors.
Opposition view
Danny Cowley says the Huddersfield Town players and staff have taken a long, hard look at themselves ahead of this weekend's Sky Bet Championship clash with Nottingham Forest.
The relegation-threatened Terriers resumed their season with a disappointing 2-0 home defeat to Wigan Athletic.
That result has left them 20th in the table and only one point above the relegation zone.
On Sunday, they take on fifth-placed Forest at the City Ground (2.15pm kick-off).
