'Love it' - Nottingham Forest fans excited as Steve Cooper reveals team for Bournemouth clash

Steve Cooper has announced his Nottingham Forest starting line-up as he prepares his side to face fellow promotion chasers Bournemouth on Tuesday evening.

Scott Parker's side hold a three-point advantage over Forest in the second automatic promotion spot as we head into their penultimate fixture of the regular Championship campaign at the Vitality Stadium. But victory for the visitors would see them leapfrog their rivals on goal difference ahead of the final day.

Cooper named an unchanged side following the 5-1 drubbing of Swansea City last time out. The Bournemouth game is set to kick off at 7pm and the line-ups are as follows...

Bournemouth XI: Travers, Phillips, Cook, Kelly (c), Lerma, Solanke, Christie, Smith, Billing, Anthony & Zemura.
