Earnshaw banned for Forest

The Wales international will serve a one-match ban after he was sent off during the home victory against Scunthorpe.

Fellow striker Robbie Findley remains a doubt after missing last weekend`s game with a thigh problem.

Boss Billy Davies has a selection poser at left-back after Paul Konchesky returned to Liverpool at the end of his loan spell. Joel Lynch (thigh) remains sidelined, so Davies must pick from Julian Bennett, Chris Cohen or Chris Gunter.

Forward Nathan Tyson continues to struggle with the thigh injury that has seen him miss the last three matches.

A draw will confirm a top-six spot for Forest, who have a superior goal difference over seventh-placed Leeds.
