Saturday's defeat to Tranmere Rovers saw The Lions slip back into the bottom four and although Jackett should be admired for sticking with the side that did so well against Walsall in the Cup, the return of several key players - not to mention two new signings - could see a completely different side run out to the one that emerged from the tunnel at the weekend.
Although Zak Whitbread is set to miss out again with a foot injury Richard Shaw is available again after serving a suspension while Neil Harris and Marcus Bignot - who were both on the bench last time out - could start. Also back in contention is midfielder Alan Dunne, who has missed twelve games through injury, and Jackett could spring an extra surprise on Forest by playing his two new signings - striker Lewis Grabban and goalkeeper Rhys Evans.
