In the starting XI, Lukasz Fabianski overcomes an injury to feature in goal, with David Moyes’ only change arriving in midfield, as Said Benrahma comes in for Manuel Lanzini. Neco Williams, meanwhile, is the most-selected player in this fixture and is owned by 26.9 per cent overall, although he’ll be rooted to the bench for many.

TAIWO AWONIYI has sent the City Ground into raptures after giving the home side the lead.Nottingham Forest thought they were behind just moments earli.

Lewis O’Brien jinked into the box, Lingard fluffed his attempt and Ben Johnson’s block bounced off Awoniyi’s knee and in. Cue the noise. The Hammers had their moments. Just a couple more would do for Moyes despite £30m striker Gianluca Scamacca and £17.5m winger Maxwel Cornet coming off the bench to no avail in the second half. In the space that was left in the programme, boss Cooper spoke of doing more than just making up the numbers after guiding them back to the Prem for the first time since 1999. And one of them ended the club’s 23-year wait to rewrite history as club-record signing Taiwo Awoniyi scored the club’s first goal back in the big-time at a sun-kissed City Ground.

Follow the action from the City Ground as Steve Cooper's Forest take on David Moyes' Hammers.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek brings it under control then lays it off to Reece James before Ryan Sessegnon hacks down the wingback to give Chelsea a free kick. James sends a couple of crosses into the box but the ball comes back to him each time. Spurs get the ball rolling again and Chelsea immediately push high. Koulibaly is waiting for the ball again but this time his volley is spooned well over the crossbar. However, they did have goalkeeper Dean Henderson to thank for keeping the three points as he saved Declan Rice’s second-half penalty. The City Ground had not hosted a top-flight match since 1999 and Taiwo Awoniyi ensured it was a winning homecoming for Forest with his first-half goal.

Nottingham Forest have named their starting XI to face West Ham United in the Premier Division at the City Ground.

Defender Steve Cook is named on the bench having missed the Newcastle game with injury. Neco Williams and Harry Toffolo are the wing backs as Mangala joins Lewis O'Brien in the centre of midfield. That means Scott McKenna plays despite Steve Cooper saying he was a major doubt in the build-up.

Taiwo Awoniyi had the City Ground bouncing like it hasn't for 23 years as his scrambled first-half goal set Nottingham Forest on course to a well-deserved ...

but if you look at it, we had good numbers up the pitch, made a lot of passes to get there, and sometimes you get what you deserve.” “The fans were amazing today and got off their feet with the way we started the game. Awoniyi left Liverpool for Germany last summer after a six-year stint at the Merseyside club, where he was regularly fielded out on loan. “As a striker you just have to be ready for anything around the goal. But had no further luck against the Forest centre-halves. Gianluca Scamacca – Led the line with Antonio hauled off. Tomas Soucek – Had a couple of first-half chances but his usual solidity alongside Rice was sorely missing. Never really commanded the centre of the field as we’re used to seeing. Lukasz Fabianski – Blocked Williams’ close-range effort on 40 mins, and produced a great save off a Niakhate header. Taiwo Awoniyi – Matched up to Zouma and Johnson, the target man Forest needed to get the crowd going. Harry Toffolo – It was his positive attitude to get on the ball and charge into the box, setting up the game’s only goal. But played with poise for the majority of the game.
