TONY MOWBRAY has made a number of changes to the Middlesbrough team for tonight's trip to Nottingham Forest.
The Boro boss has been forced top change his defence with both Matthew Bates and Rhys Williams missing with knocks sustained against Millwall.
That means openings for Stephen McManus and Seb Hines at the back, while striker Scott McDonald has paid the price for a poor display against the Lions.
McDonald has been named on the bench at the City Ground and Barry Robson is likely to be the man playing behind lone striker Marvin Emnes, as Middlesbrough look for the win that could take them back to second in the Championship.
NOTTINGHAM FOREST (4-4-2): Camp; Chambers, Lynch, Morgan, Hill; Gunter, Majewski, McGugan, Moussi; Tudgay, Miller. Subs: Derbyshire, Reid, Greening, Smith (gk), Findley.
MIDDLESBROUGH (3-5-1-1): Steele; McMahon, Hines, McManus; Hoyte, Haroun, Bailey, Thomson, Bennett; Robson, Emnes. Subs: McDonald, Arca, Coyne (gk), Martin,. Nimely.
