Nottingham Forest vs Burnley kick-off time

Nottingham Forest vs Burnley kicks off on 19 Apr at 09:00 EST and 14:00 GMT.

Match preview

There is a real sense of occasion heading into this one, especially with Nottingham Forest riding the high of a historic European night. Having just secured a spot in their first continental semi-final since 1984 by knocking out Porto from the Europa League, the Forest faithful are dreaming big, but manager Vitor Pereira knows he can't let that distraction derail their domestic survival. While their European form has been the stuff of legends, their Premier League position remains precarious, making every point at home feel like gold dust.

They face a Burnley side that has been difficult to shake off in recent years; these two have developed a habit of locked-in draws, including a 1-1 stalemate earlier this season. Burnley arrives with plenty of pride and contracts to play for, and while they’ve struggled for consistency, they are more than capable of spoiling the party if Forest shows any signs of a European hangover.

Key stats & injury news

On the statistical front, this fixture has tight contest written all over it - four of the last five meetings between these two across all competitions have ended in draws, with three of those finishing 1-1. Forest has struggled to dominate Burnley recently, winning just one of their last eight league encounters, though that lone victory did come fairly recently at Turf Moor. 

In terms of team news, the hosts are dealing with a bit of a good news, bad news situation following their midweek heroics. Goal-machine Chris Wood and defensive pillar Murillo both limped off against Porto, but the early word from the medical staff is optimistic that both should be fit to feature. Unfortunately, the news isn't as bright for Callum Hudson-Odoi, who was spotted leaving the stadium on crutches and looks set for a spell on the sidelines with a muscle injury.

Burnley, meanwhile, will look to exploit a tired Forest backline, though they'll need to improve their away record significantly, having won just twice in their last 21 trips to The City Ground.

• Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
• Apple TV, Roku & Consoles: These devices often don't support direct VPN apps. The easiest workaround is to use Smart DNS (usually found in your VPN account settings) or Mirror/Cast the stream from your VPN-connected phone or laptop to your TV.
