Nottingham Forest's winless run now stands at eight games after Saturday's 3-0 humbling at Huddersfield Town, and their next chance to stop the rot comes on Wednesday night when Brentford visit the City Ground.
After setting the early pace in the Championship, Stuart Pearce's side have dropped to 10th in the table, seven points behind leaders Watford, and can count themselves fairly lucky that no side has really pulled away from the pack.
Hull City loanee Thomas Ince failed to have a real impact in his Forest debut, but he should continue in attack with Britt Assombalonga on Wednesday night.
Assombalonga has scored just once in Forest's eight games without a win and is no longer the division's top scorer after Derby County striker Chris Martin reached 10 for the season against Brentford on Saturday.
Martin's strike wasn't enough for Derby, though, as Brentford head to the City Ground level on 22 points from 15 games with Forest and will undoubtedly be confident after toppling the Rams.
Forest's East Midlands rivals Derby travelled to Griffin Park top of the table and were stung by the Bees thanks to Stuart Dallas's injury-time strike which completed a second-half turnaround.
Dallas came off the bench to snatch all three points and his goal might earn him a start for the trip to Forest.
Forest have won their last three meetings with Brentford. The two sides last met in the 2006-07 League One season, with Forest claiming victory 4-2 in their last meeting on April 14, 2007.
