Arguably the most important match in Nottingham Forest’s recent history takes place on Thursday evening, when Vítor Pereira’s side will hope to defend a 1-0 aggregate lead over Aston Villa in the second leg of their Europa League semi-final – but Forest’s preparations have been hampered by injury concerns.
Super Eagles defender, Ola Aina was absent from Nottingham Forest training ahead of tonight’s Europa League decider.

Pereira was coy on whether any of Murillo, Aina, Sangare or Ndoye could return to face Villa.
He told reporters that Aina had promised him that he would be ready to play against Aston Villa.
He added: “Not because I have doubt about Morgan, but because I have doubt about the injured players, I will delay my decisions. But in my mind I have plan A, B and C. We have a lot of (injury) doubts. We can have doubts about the players (who might be fit), but we cannot have doubts about the spirit, about what we want, about how we believe, about resilience, about what we should do tactically. This is something we cannot doubt.”
