Nottingham Forest and Chelsea have announced their starting lineups for Sunday's Premier League fixture.
Nuno Espirito Santo and Enzo Maresca are both under pressure to deliver Champions League football, the visitors knowing that victory at the City Ground would be enough to achieve that goal and the home side aware that they need maximum points to give themselves an opportunity.
On the back of the win over Manchester United nine days ago, Maresca has decided to make just the one alteration to his Chelsea team.
With Jadon Sancho available again after being ineligible to face his parent club, the winger returns on the flank with Pedro Neto moving into a central position.
As a result, Tyrique George has dropped down to the substitutes' bench, which is boosted by the return of Marc Guiu after an absence which has lasted since February 3.
Reece James has retained his position at right-back, leaving Moises Caicedo to partner Enzo Fernandez in the engine room and Romeo Lavia making do with a spot among the replacements.

No changes for Forest
Meanwhile, Nuno has opted to retain the same starting lineup from Forest's 2-1 victory at West Ham United last weekend.
There is the potential for a 4-3-1-2 formation with Nicolas Dominguez operating as a third central midfielder and Anthony Elanga being used alongside Chris Wood in attack.
The alternative is Dominguez being used out on the left and Elanga on the right. Former Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi has to make do with a place on the bench.
Nottingham Forest XI: Sels; Aina, Milenkovic, Murillo, Williams; Sangare, Anderson; Elanga, Gibbs-White, Dominguez; Wood
Subs: Miguel, Morato, Hudson-Odoi, Toffolo, Jota, Yates, Sosa, Danilo, Boly
Chelsea XI: Sanchez; James, Adarabioyo, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez; Madueke, Palmer, Sancho; Neto
Subs: Jorgensen, Acheampong, Badiashile, Chalobah, Gusto, Lavia, Dewsbury-Hall, George, Guiu
