Nottingham Forest team news v Swansea: Chris Hughton makes two changes

Anthony Knockaert and Miguel Angel Guerrero return to the Nottingham Forest starting 11 as Chris Hughton makes two changes for the home clash with Swansea.

Knockaert and Guerrero were left out of the Reds line-up for the 2-0 defeat at Bournemouth after a run of starts, but having featured as substitutes on the south coast, they are back in the team.

Joe Lolley and Harry Arter are the two that make way, with both players dropping to the bench.

Elsewhere it’s the same side that lost 2-0 to the Cherries.

Brice Samba is between the sticks behind a back four of Cyrus Christie, Tobias Figueiredo, Scott McKenna, and Yuri Ribeiro.

Captain Jack Colback and Ryan Yates will marshal the midfield with Knockaert and Sammy Ameobi wide.

Guerrero will support Lyle Taylor in attack.

On the bench, there is one change, with young striker Alex Mighten back in the squad in place of Gaetan Bong. Teenager Mighten has been missing for the past five games, and will look to make his first outing under Hughton against the Swans.

Forest: Samba, Christie, Figueiredo, McKenna, Ribeiro; Colback, Yates; Knockaert, Guerrero, Ameobi; Taylor.

Subs: Smith, Mbe Soh, Jenkinson, Cafu, Lolley, Arter, Mighten, Ioannou, Swan.
