Nottingham Forest vs Bristol City - Duo suspended for O'Neill's first game in charge
Posted Thursday, January 17, 2019 by PA
Martin O’Neill will take charge of Nottingham Forest for the first time against Bristol City.
He could yet be joined by Roy Keane, who was O’Neill’s number two when he was in charge of the Republic of Ireland.
The Reds’ new boss will be without suspended duo Dan Fox and Tendayi Darikwa for the game.
Fox picked up a one-match suspension after being sent off for two bookable offences in the 2-0 defeat at Reading, while Darikwa received a three-match ban for a straight red card in the same game.
New Bristol City signing Kasey Palmer could be pushing for a starting place after scoring as a substitute on his debut in a 2-1 win over Bolton.
Palmer joined on loan from Chelsea for the remainder of the season after a temporary spell at Blackburn was cut short.
Eros Pisano has not featured since Boxing Day with an adductor strain and is unlikely to feature against Forest.
Matty Taylor could feature after being an unused substitute against Bolton.
