Europa League 2025-2026: Nottingham Forest-Porto, the likely lineups

The third Europa League match between Nottingham Forest and Porto will be played at the City Ground at 9 p.m.

The English are fresh from changing their third coach of the season: in fact, on their bench tonight debuts Sean Dyche, who will try to lift a team in great difficulty.

In Europe, the hosts drew 2-2 with Betis in Seville and then lost at home 3-2 to Denmark’s Midtjylland.

At an altogether different time are Farioli’s Portuguese side, which won away from home with Salzburg 1-0 and 2-1 at home with Red Star, and are also leading the domestic league.

The likely lineups

NOTTINGHAM FOREST (4-2-3-1): Sels; Williams, Milenkovic, Murillo, Zinchenko; Anderson, Douglas Luiz; Ndoye, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi; Igor Jesus. All: Dyche.

PORTO (4-3-3); Costa; Alberto Costa, Bednarek, Kiwior, Moura; Froholdt, Varela, Veiga; Pepe, Samu, Sainz. All: Farioli.
