Cardiff City v Nottingham Forest live stream, Sunday 30 January, 4pm GMT
Nottingham Forest will be looking for their fourth consecutive win in the Championship when they face Cardiff on Sunday.
January has been a fantastic month for Steve Cooper’s side. It began with a 1-0 victory over Arsenal in the third round of the FA Cup, setting up an East Midlands derby against Leicester City in the fourth round.
Forest then ground out a 1-0 victory over Millwall, before beating arch-rivals Derby County in a feisty encounter last weekend. Forest then eased past Barnsley in midweek, winning 3-0 at the City Ground to remain within a point of the play-off places.
The turnaround under Cooper has been remarkable. Under Chris Hughton, Forest collected one point from the first 21 available. Cooper inherited a side that was rock-bottom of the Championship, but Forest have been one of the best teams in the division since he took over. They have still only lost just one away game in the league under their current boss, who is set to receive a hostile reception at the Cardiff City Stadium as a former Swansea City manager.
Cardiff are in desperate need of a win having gone six league games without one. A 3-2 loss to Bristol City last time out leaves the Bluebirds looking nervously over their shoulders at the bottom three, into which they surely would have dropped by now had Peterborough United and Reading not also gone through poor runs of form.
Cardiff will hope to welcome Kieffer Moore back into the fold after Covid-19. Steve Morison is thought to be under pressure as the club’s manager, with Neil Warnock having been linked with a return to south Wales. Defeat here could leave Morison on the brink of the sack.
Forest will be unable to call upon the services of Joe Lolley, Joe Worrall, Alex Mighten and Loic Mbe Soh on Sunday.
Kick-off is at 4pm GMT on Sunday 30 January. See below for international broadcast options.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
