“And if Lingard starts, I think he could really compliment them both in the attack.”
Both sides are in search for a piece of elusive silverware, as United have gone without a major trophy for six years while Forest will be looking to recapture their League Cup form that was once so impressive under Brian Clough.
One Forest fan couldn’t contain their excitement and said: ”This is one of the biggest games I’ve witnessed as a Forest fan, its gonna be a belter.”
A game where the city of Nottingham will unite itself under the flood lights.
It will be a battle worthy of watching.
