No new worries for Forest

Nottingham Forest have no new problems as they prepare to host Charlton.

Reds boss Dougie Freedman could see his squad boosted by the return of Ben Osborn after a shoulder problem and then food poisoning prevented the young midfielder from being involved so far this season.

After winning for the first time this campaign against Rotherham on Saturday, Freedman could name an unchanged starting line up.

Daniel Pinillos was named in the squad for the first time at the weekend after Forest finally received international clearance for the summer signing and the Spanish left-back will hope to make his debut for the club sooner rather than later.

Charlton make the trip without Stephen Henderson, Igor Vetokele and Franck Moussa.

Goalkeeper Henderson is sidelined by a shoulder injury, striker Vetokele is recovering from a muscle problem and winger Moussa has knee trouble.

Right-back Chris Solly could be rested as he struggles to play twice in a week due to a troublesome knee while boss Guy Luzon may make further changes.

Striker Tony Watt played the whole 90 minutes against Derby on Saturday despite a leg knock so he may get a breather while the likes of El Hadji-Ba, Zakarya Bergdich and club captain Johnnie Jackson are pushing to start.
