Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa were forced to settle for a 1-1 draw at the City Ground, a result which does little to kickstart either of their seasons. Both Steven Gerrard and Steve Cooper came into this match in desperate need of a win, though the latter was at least given a measure of security after his recent contract extension. Ad Cooper made five changes to the side which lost 4-0 to Leicester last Monday, bringing in Serge Aurier, Harry Toffolo, Remo Freuler, Ryan Yates and Emmanuel Dennis for Neco Williams, Renan Lodi, Lewis O’Brien, Jesse Lingard and Taiwo Awoniyi.
