Gordon is a surprise inclusion in the Newcastle XI after limping off at half-time in last week's 4-4 draw with Luton Town. It means the only change is a tactical one, with Wilson in for Murphy as a more natural centre-forward. Newcastle captain Lascelles, who came through the Forest academy, is fit again and on the bench.

For Newcastle, it is the corresponding fixture from last season that provides cause for optimism. Eddie Howe's side came from behind to win 2-1 at the City Ground with a last-gasp Alexander Isak penalty, a second win in a run of eight in nine that carried the Magpies towards Champions League qualification. Isak is also now missing due to injury.

Struggling Forest are two points above the bottom three and come into this game looking for their first league win of 2024, but they advanced to the fifth round of the FA Cup by beating Bristol City on penalties in midweek and have fond memories of facing Newcastle on Boxing Day, running out 3-1 winners courtesy of a hat-trick from Chris Wood. Former Newcastle man Wood is absent here through injury, however.
