Nottingham Forest will hope to boost their Premier League survival hopes when they welcome Newcastle to the City Ground.

Last Saturday's 3-1 defeat at Tottenham means Steve Cooper's side are just two points above the relegation zone and they will be pleased to return to familiar surroundings as 20 of their 26 points have been attained on home soil.

Forest midfielder Jonjo Shelvey is set to feature against his former employers but striker Chris Wood is ineligible to play because he is technically still on loan from the Magpies.

Newcastle will be without suspended midfielder Joelinton and injured winger Anthony Gordon for the trip to Nottingham as they attempt to eat into Tottenham's four-point advantage in the race for Champions League qualification.

Eddie Howe will be hoping for a repeat of the reverse fixture as his team ran out 2-0 winners when the two teams met at St James' Park on the opening weekend of the season.

Nottingham Forest v Newcastle prediction

Nottingham Forest are missing a glut of players but their record at the City Ground gives them a chance.

Steve Cooper's side are unbeaten in the league on their own patch since September, although five of their last nine home matches have ended in draws, so there's a good chance that they will bag a point against a Newcastle side that has lost a tad of their pre-World Cup swagger.

Our prediction: Nottingham Forest 1-1 Newcastle (13/2 at bet365)
