The these sides have a historical link, also meeting in Forest's most recent continental tour in the 1995-96 Uefa Cup, but it is the continental championship from 1979 that connects these teams, with the groundbreaking transfer the English forward scoring the winner of a rather dull championship game to secure historic victory for the Forest supporters.

The popular prediction is on the home team tonight. Additional games on offer in this live coverage. The Scottish side have already been defeated by a European rival this season.
