Team news & squads
Nottingham Forest team news
Nottingham Forest approach their second pre-season outing searching for sharper attacking output after their 0-0 stalemate with Chesterfield. Nuno Espírito Santo’s side has largely avoided major injury issues, but Neco Williams and Nicolas Dominguez remain sidelined and will not be available for selection.
Morgan Gibbs-White was given extra rest following international duty and is back in training, as are expected starters Chris Wood, Ibrahim Sangare, Matz Sels, and Taiwo Awoniyi, who is nearing full recovery from an abdominal injury.
Monaco team news
AS Monaco make the trip at full throttle following a 5-0 dismantling of Coventry City and a positive start to their pre-season under Adi Hütter. Paul Pogba will not be involved as he continues his long-term rehabilitation, and recent Barcelona loanee Ansu Fati is also expected to miss out after being absent against Coventry.
Defender Eric Dier is available and rising star Maghnes Akliouche, fresh off a rapid hat-trick last time out, is likely to start.
