Nottingham Forest vs Burnley: Confirmed line-ups for pivotal relegation clash

Nottingham Forest host Burnley at the City Ground in a crucial Premier League relegation battle. Chris Wood starts up front for Forest against his former club, marking his first league start in 196 days. With Wolves already relegated after their defeat at Leeds, Forest sit two points above the drop zone, leaving two spots to battle for.

Entering Sunday's fixture, Nottingham Forest are two points clear of the relegation zone. A home win would ramp up the pressure on Tottenham in the fight to stay up. Burnley look destined for the Championship.

Forest make two changes from the side that faced Aston Villa: Chris Wood and Dilane Bakwa come into the lineup, replacing the injured Callum Hudson-Odoi and Igor Jesus. Wood, who last started a league game against Newcastle in October during Ange Postecoglou's penultimate match, leads the attack.

Forest line-up: Matz Sels; Neco Williams, Murillo, Nikola Milenkovic, Ola Aina; Elliot Anderson, Ibrahim Sangaré; Dilane Bakwa, Morgan Gibbs-White, Omari Hutchinson; Chris Wood.

Burnley line-up: Martin Dúbravka; Quilindschy Hartman, Maxime Estève, Hjalmar Ekdal, Kyle Walker; Florentino, James Ward-Prowse; Jaidon Anthony, Lesley Ugochukwu, Marcus Edwards; Zian Flemming.
