NOTTINGHAM Forest made only one change to their team as they looked to get back to winning ways against struggling Barnsley.
Billy Davies' side were desperate for three points as they looked to revive their play-off hopes, following five games without victory.
And the manager shuffled his pack slightly, bringing Radi Majewski back into the starting XI in place of Lewis McGugan.
McGugan has scored six goals in recent weeks – but five of those had been netted when the midfielder had come off the bench.
Forest: Darlow, Hutchinson, Ward, Halford, Cohen, Guedioura, Lansbury, Reid, Majewski, Cox, Sharp. Subs: Collins, Moussi, McGugan, Greening, Tudgay, Blackstock, Al-Rashidi.
Barnsley: Steele, Kennedy, Cranie, Wiseman, Jones, Perkins, Mellis, O'Brien, Noble-Lazurus, Scotland, O'Grady. Subs: Alnwick, Harewood, Dagnall, Edwards, Cywka, Knight, Rose.
Referee: Andy Haines, Tyne and Wear.
