Nottingham Forest v Burnley: Line-ups confirmed for huge relegation clash in Premier League
Chris Wood returns to the Forest starting XI against his old club.
With Wolves officially relegated following their loss at Leeds, the battle to avoid the remaining two spots reaches fever pitch at the City Ground.
Nottingham Forest are two points clear of the relegation zone heading into Sunday’s match and a home win would ramp up the pressure on Tottenham no end.
Burnley look all-but certain to join Wolves back in the Championship next season and have lost 44 of their last 70 games in the Premier League.
Here’s how the sides shape up.
