Injury Expert shares early Nottingham Forest team news v West Ham United

Nottingham Forest are set to be without five first-team players for their Premier League clash against West Ham on Sunday 12 November, according to injury expert Ben Dinnery.

The injury expert shared the data on his website and has listed the players that will not be available and are “ruled out”, with only one of them potentially fit before Sunday’s clash at the London Stadium.

Callum Hudson-Odoi, Chris Wood, Gonzalo Montiel, and former Hammers transfer target Divock Origi are all “ruled out” of action, key defender Felipe’s fitness status is at 25% but isn't expected to return for Sunday's game with Dinnery putting his return until after the forthcoming international break.

Must win

Nottingham Forest will certainly be buoyed by their terrific home win against Aston Villa on Sunday (5 November), a game in which they showcased their defensive resilience and threat on the counterattack.

West Ham United are in dreadful form right now, form which has left Moyes' immediate future at the club in fresh doubt and news has emerged already regarding a potential decision should the Hammers lose again against Forest.

Saturday’s defeat against Brentford was their third consecutive Premier League defeat, a result which now leaves the Hammers languishing in the bottom half of the table and without a win in the league since 30 September against Sheffield United.

Reliable Hammers journalists Claret and Hugh, posting on their official website (7 November) shared that the West Ham boss will not be sacked should they suffer their sixth consecutive defeat in a row against Nottingham Forest on Sunday (12 November) because it isn't an "easy game".

Ideally, the Irons should be beating the Forest, especially considering their depleted options right now but you simply cannot predict results so easily in the Premier League but things could get really toxic should West Ham United fail to win yet again on Sunday.

It is a must-win game.
