Team News: Chuba Akpom makes Nottingham Forest debut against Wolverhampton Wanderers

New signing Chuba Akpom starts for Nottingham Forest in their Championship clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers at the City Ground.

Nottingham Forest manager Dougie Freedman has handed Chuba Akpom his debut for today's Championship clash against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The striker, who has joined the Reds on loan from Arsenal, starts in place of Dexter Blackstock, who is on the bench after picking up a knock in the 3-1 defeat to Norwich City a fortnight ago.

Modou Barrow has dropped out of the squad, with Chris Burke returning to the starting lineup after he came off the bench to score against Norwich.

Wolves have made two changes from the side that beat Derby County before the international break, with first-choice goalkeeper Carl Ikeme returning to the side in place of Tomasz Kuszczak after recovering from a broken foot.

Kenny Jackett has also brought Dominic Iorfa back into the fray after the young defender was benched for the Derby win.

Forest: Darlow; Mancienne, Wilson, Lascelles, Lichaj; Burke, Lansbury, Gardner, Osborn, Antonio; Akpom

Wolves: Ikeme; Iorfa, Batth, Stearman, Golbourne; Henry, McDonald, Price, Sako; Afobe, Dicko
