Head coach Nuno Espirito Santo has named his Nottingham Forest team to face Brighton and Hove Albion in this afternoon’s Premier League clash.

The Reds go into today's game looking to maintain their positive start to the season. They are unbeaten in their opening four Premier League games after seeing off Liverpool last weekend.

Callum Hudson-Odoi scored the only goal of the game on Merseyside to secure Forest's first victory at Anfield since 1969. And the result also made it four away wins on the trot in the league for Nuno's men.

They face a tough test at the Amex Stadium but will have made the trip in high spirits. Nuno has made two changes to last Saturday's starting XI. Ryan Yates and Nicolas Dominguez drop out, while Hudson-Odoi and Anthony Elanga return.

Ola Aina, Nikola Milenkovic, Murillo and Alex Moreno will once again make up the defence in front of goalkeeper Matz Sels. James Ward-Prowse and Elliot Anderson will make up the midfield.

Anthony Elanga, Morgan Gibbs-White and Hudson-Odoi will provide attacking support for front man Chris Wood. The substitutes’ bench will be made up of Carlos Miguel, Morato, Neco Williams, Taiwo Awoniyi, Nicolas Dominguez, Eric da Silva Moreira, Jota Silva, Ryan Yates and Ramon Sosa.

Forest: Sels; Aina, Milenkovic, Murillo, Moreno; Ward-Prowse, Anderson; Elanga, Morgan Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi; Wood. Subs: Miguel, Morato, Williams, Awoniyi, Dominguez, Moreira, Jota, Yates, Sosa.
