Nottingham Forest are in 17th place in the Premier League standings and have not been at their best over the past year. The away side played out a 2-2 draw against Wolverhampton Wanderers last week and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.
Everton, on the other hand, are in 16th place in the league table and have struggled in the top flight this season. The Toffees slumped to a damaging 6-0 defeat at the hands of Chelsea in their previous game and will need to bounce back this weekend.
