16.42: Tyson should have put Forest ahead but missed with his close-range shot.

16.40: Phillips on for Quashie.

16.38: It’s all Blues now – can they get a winner or will Forest hang on for a point?

16.30: Tyson looking dangerous for Forest – at the moment you wouldn’t guess which of these sides were at either ends of the table.

16.23: Cameron Jerome on for Agustien as Alex Mcleish’s men look to score again.

16.20: With Wolves leading Burnley 1-0, Blues desperately need to find another goal if they are not to lose contact at the top – and Reading are up against Derby as well.

16.13: Perch equalises for Forest from a couple of yards out – to be honest it’s a deserved equaliser for the home side.

15.47: Agustien is the third Blues player to go into the referee’s book

15.36: Jaidi yellow-carded for a challenge on Tyson – Blues are gradually beginning to assert themselves on the game.

15.30: Blues looking resilient at the back but Forest look the more dangerous at the moment.

15.23: Quashie caught offside – the home side are on top in terms of possession but will they be able to score against a Blues defence which has been stingy all season?

15.15: McFadden puts Blues 1-0 up. Right-foot cross from Quashie, headed on by Bent and finished off by McFadden – a bit harsh on the home side who had started the game brightly.

15.03: Quashie gets a yellow card for a foul on Perch.

15.00: We’re under way.
