Head coach Steve Cooper has named his Nottingham Forest team to face Luton Town in this afternoon's Premier League clash.

The Reds return to action after the international break looking to end a four-match winless run. A 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace last time out made for a second successive draw for Cooper's side.

Nevertheless, they have made an encouraging start to the season and have registered nine points from their first eight games. Forest know scoring more goals is an area for improvement, though.

They are still without striker Taiwo Awoniyi due to injury. And the Reds had several other players who were classed as doubts for today's fixture, including Gonzalo Montiel and Serge Aurier.

The latter gets the green light to make the starting line-up, but Montiel misses out. Cooper makes one change to the XI which started at Selhurst Park as Anthony Elanga comes in for Callum Hudson-Odoi.

Aurier takes his place at right-back, with Harry Toffolo on the left. Willy Boly and Murillo retain their spots at centre-back, ahead of goalkeeper Matt Turner.

Ibrahim Sangare, Orel Mangala and Nicolas Dominguez make up the midfield. Morgan Gibbs-White and Elanga will support Chris Wood in attack. The bench will be made up of Odysseas Vlachodimos, Joe Worrall, Neco Williams, Cheikhou Kouyate, Andrey Santos, Moussa Niakhate, Ryan Yates, Brandon Aguilera and Ola Aina.

Forest: Turner; Aurier, Boly, Murillo, Toffolo; Sangare, Mangala, Dominguez; Gibbs-White, Wood, Elanga. Subs: Vlachodimos, Worrall, Williams, Kouyate, Santos, Niakhate, Yates, Aguilera, Aina.
