There is a huge game near the bottom of the Premier League on Sunday as Everton host Nottingham Forest at Goodison Park.

The Toffees are coming off a humiliating 6-0 defeat away at Chelsea on Monday and are currently placed two spots above the relegation zone.

Forest are one place in behind in 17th, so a victory for either side could have major ramifications for the fight against the drop.

.

The loss against Chelsea was damaging personnel-wise, too, as Seamus Coleman, Jarrad Branthwaite and Nathan Patterson all picked up injuries in the game.

Everton are hopeful that Branthwaite can play against Forest, but the other two will miss out which means a spot at right-back for Ashley Young.

Dele Alli is a long-term absentee, while there are concerns over the fitness of Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Idrissa Gueye, though they might be asked to play through any pain in such a big game.

Key player: Everton

Abdoulaye Doucoure is Everton's top scorer this season with six Premier League goals.

Taiwo Awoniyi and Willy Boly are still injured for Forest, but there are hopes they can both return within the next couple of weeks.

Anthony Elanga missed the Wolves draw and should he still be declared unfit, Giovanni Reyna will retain his place in the starting XI.

Key player: Nottingham Forest

Morgan Gibbs-White scored in the 2-2 draw at Wolves so he'll be brimming with confidence for this relegation clash.
