Match preview

Nottingham Forest's home results have been keeping them out of the Championship relegation zone and the Tricky Trees can extend their four-match unbeaten sequence at the City Ground by overcoming promotion-chasing Swansea.

Successive 2-0 defeats at Barnsley and Bournemouth have come as a blow to Forest, who had made a solid enough start under Chris Hughton, losing one of the first seven games after the 61-year-old's appointment.

However, they have won their last two home fixtures and should fancy their chances against the Swans, who laboured to a 1-1 draw at home to struggling Sheffield Wednesday in midweek.

Swansea have won just one of their last four games and haven't triumphed on their travels since a 2-0 success at Wycombe in September.

Steve Cooper's side are still in the thick of the promotion scrap but six-goal centre-forward Andre Ayew is their only player to have scored more than twice and their lack of alternative firepower could mean they come up short this weekend.

Key stat

Swansea have not won any of their last four away games
