Key Player:
Lewis McGugan: The talented centre midfielder has had an excellent season so far and is Forest`s top scorer with 11 goals, most of them worthy of winning the goal of the season award. Standing at only 5″9 the attacking midfielder possesses good strength on the ball and has a varied range of passing making him an excellent prospect going forward and one certainly to watch out for on Sunday.
