It is goalless between Blackburn Rovers and Nottingham Forest heading into half time at Ewood Park.

Andy Reid had a chance early on for the visitors but fired his shot over the bar when well placed.

Former Forest captain Chris Cohen denied Blackburn a perfect start when he cleared Alan Judge's free kick off the line after six minutes.

The away side were dominating possession and Jamie Paterson forced keeper Jake Kean into a save from his low shot.

At the end of the half, Kelvin Wilson appeared to be pulled back in the area by Chris Taylor, but his penalty appeals were turned down.
