Prediction: 1-1
Nottingham Forest
After sharing the spoils with Derby County in the East Midlands derby, Nottingham Forest will be looking to return to winning ways when they take on Luton Town at Kenilworth Road. The Reds are undefeated in the previous three league fixtures, and they are surely capable of matching the Hatters behind closed doors. Summer signing Anthony Knockaert is widely expected to make his first start for Nottingham Forest on Wednesday evening.
Luton Town, on the other hand, aim to build on a 1-0 win at Sheffield Wednesday. The Hatters have been having their ups and downs at the start of the season, but, taking everything into account, they are likely to share the spoils with the Reds at their Kenilworth Road. The likes of Bree, Galloway, and Potts are all likely to miss the game through injury for the visitors, while Bachirou, Blackett, and Worrall are out of contention for the hosts.
