According to Ketts( Dr Kish ), a number of players will be out tonight.
In form Nottingham Forest will visit The Valley on Tuesday evening and they have won five of their last six games, the exception being a thrilling 4-4 draw at Blackpool.
Forest's stuttering form has been turned round since Dougie Freedman took over the reins at the City Ground. As at Palace and Bolton, Freedman has former Charlton manager, Lennie Lawrence, as his assistant.
Guy Luzon has several injury problems and is likely to be without Chris Solly, Rhoys Wiggins, Tal Ben Haim, Johann Gudmundsson and Johnnie Jackson, with one or two others also struggling.
Luzon will want to make as few changes as possible to the side that swept Huddersfield aside but a number will be enforced upon him. His team may look something like this:

Might benefit from playing an extra midfielder, soaking up the pressure and then throwing the Watt/Vetokele partnership at them when they tire. We're in danger of being outnumbered in the midfield area with our current 4-4-2, especially if Buyens plays alongside Cousins. If we do play two up front it needs to be Cousins and Diarra in the middle
The key question for me will be how well Forest cope against our attack. I think we will miss JBG most of all, although Eagles looks decent. At home, Wilson can do a job at RB and Bikey has had the break he needs and looked like his head was in the right place at half time on Saturday. I would keep Gomez in centre defence- I don't think we should change him too much - he needs to take what he learned in the Huddersfield game into this one. Anyway, if Johnson and Ben Haim are out, he has to be played there.
It looks like it may depend on the team we can put out but either way we are finally a team with confidence. Forest too are on fire but I hope with home advantage we will just edge it. 1-1 it is though and an entertaining match too.
