Key occasions
Preamble
Ange Postecoglou was within the dugout the last time Nottingham Forest performed Midtjylland within the Europa League. It was the start of October and, clearly, Big Ange didn’t oversee a win. Since that 3-2 dwelling defeat within the league part, Sean Dyche has come and gone, and now Vítor Pereira leads Forest deeper into their first European marketing campaign for 30 years.
After seeing off Fenerbahce within the playoff spherical, Forest face Midtjylland within the first leg of their last 16 tie on the City Ground. The Danish aspect completed a lofty third within the league part and their squad consists of Premier League pedigree in Philip Billing, Kevin Mbabu and Mads Bech. The winner of this tie will tackle Porto or Stuttgart within the quarter-finals and doubtlessly set themselves on a collision course with Aston Villa within the last 4.
