- Nottingham Forest head coach Sean Dyche downplays any rivalry with Crystal Palace ahead of Sunday’s 2pm City Ground match, focusing solely on winning and performance.
- Amid summer tensions, Palace chairman Steve Parish suggested that the Europa League demotion over multi-club ownership breaches added extra spice to the fixture between Nottingham Forest and Crystal Palace.

- On Jan 30, Palace confirmed Jean-Philippe Mateta will miss the trip as AC Milan leads transfer interest with a 35million bid, amid Forest's reported bid.
