Nottingham Forest’s forward, Taiwo Awoniyi, is set to undergo a last-minute fitness assessment before the team’s match against Aston Villa. Awoniyi, who scored in the last game, is recovering from a groin injury that sidelined him for three months.

Manager Nuno Espirito Santo confirmed the ongoing fitness evaluation for Awoniyi, emphasizing the need to carefully manage his return to full fitness. Despite the injury setback, Awoniyi has been instrumental, netting six goals in 14 league games this season.

Unfortunately, Awoniyi’s compatriot, Ola Aina, will miss the upcoming game due to injury. Nottingham Forest supporters await the final verdict on Awoniyi’s availability, hoping for his swift recovery to boost the team’s attacking prowess against Aston Villa.
