Nottingham Forest striker Taiwo Awoniyi will miss their game against Albion.

Awoniyi suffered a recurrence of a groin injury while playing for Nigeria.

The four-goal forward had been set to make is return to club action having missed the last game before the international break.

He is now expected to miss several months.

Forest boss Steve Cooper said: "He's become an important player for us with the goals he's scored and the goals he will score for us, but he's such a good guy and a good professional who is desperate to do well, so to get an injury like this is harsh on him.”

Anthony Elanga also misses out.

Forest are unbeaten in their last eight Premier League games at the City Ground, including last season, a run which began with their 3-1 win over Albion in April.
