Billy Davies is set to bring back captain Paul McKenna and playmaker Radoslaw Majewski for Saturday's home game against Reading.
Davies rested a number of first team regulars for Forest's mid-week cup exit to Birmingham and is expected to field a team similar to the one which triumphed at West Brom last week.
Kelvin Wilson, Chris Gunter, Paul Anderson and Dexter Blackstock are all set for recalls as well as on-loan left back Nicky Shorey, who is expected to return to play against his former side.
However, striker Rob Earnshaw is still struggling with a hamstring injury and is a major doubt.
Forest are unbeaten in 17 Championship games and will be looking to consolidate their position in the automatic promotion spots.
