Nottingham Forest team news
Steve Cooper was keen to downplay any fitness concerns surrounding Cheikou Kouyate after the new arrival limped off during Forest's EFL Cup victory over Grimsby Town in midweek.
Jack Colback is a doubt with illness and Omar Richards isn't expected to feature until the start of October despite positive reports on his "good progress". Moussa Niakhate started the club's opening two matches but is set to be sidelined for "a few months" with a thigh injury.

Tottenham team news
Cristian Romero managed to escape punishment for his hair pull on Chelsea's Marc Cucurella but has been sidelined with "a little problem", as Antonio Conte put it. The Argentine centre-back wasn't risked for Tottenham's victory against Wolves last weekend and may be forced sit out the trip to Nottingham as well.
For once, Conte was able to use the phrase "good news" when discussing Oliver Skipp's injury status. The unfortunate midfielder is edging closer to full fitness after picking up a freak hairline fracture in the summer.
Tottenham predicted lineup vs Nottingham Forest
Tottenham Starting 11: Lloris; Sanchez, Dier, Davies; Emerson, Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Perisic; Kulusevski, Kane, Son.
Bench: Forster, Doherty, Richarlison, Bryan, Sessegnon, Tanganga, Moura, Lenglet, Bissouma.
Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham score prediction
Cooper steered Forest to victories against Premier League opposition at the City Ground while they were still a Championship team last season, bullying Arsenal and Leicester during an FA Cup run which was only narrowly ended by Liverpool.
West Ham have already fallen foul of Forest's home comforts this season - Cooper's side have won 13 of their last 16 home games - but Tottenham represent another challenge altogether.
Conte's side haven't dazzled across an entire 90 minutes just yet this season but possess the requisite quality to go into a match against newly promoted foes as the favourites.
Prediction: Nottingham Forest 0-2 Tottenham
