Sports Mole previews Saturday's Championship meeting between Nottingham Forest and Leeds United.

Nottingham Forest and Leeds United have the opportunity to get back to on-field matters after finding themselves in the news for the wrong reasons this week.

Both clubs have been hit with a transfer embargo after failing to comply with Financial Fair Play regulations, meaning that Stuart Pearce and Neil Redfearn have both been forced to put recruitment plans to one side.

On the pitch it's been a difficult few weeks for Forest, who have failed to win any of their last three games and find themselves five points outside the playoff spots as a result.

Leeds suffered a third loss in four games when Fulham striker Hugo Rodallega condemned Redfearn's side to defeat last weekend.

Just five points separate Leeds from the relegation zone, but a win on Saturday would move them to within four of Forest, who will still be expecting to challenge for a spot in the playoffs.

Pearce has no new injury troubles to worry about, but he could bring Thomas Ince into the starting lineup, while Redfearn may hand a recall to Billy Sharp.

Forest:

Recent form: LWWLDD

Possible starting lineup: Darlow, Lichaj, Mancienne, Wilson, Fox, Paterson, Tesche, Lansbury, Antonio, Ince, Assombalonga

Leeds:

Recent form: DWLWLL

Possible starting lineup: Silvestri, Byram, Pearce, Cooper, Warnock, Bianchi, Cook, Mowatt, Oliveira, Antenucci, Sharp

Sports Mole says: 2-1
