They are getting some joy down Darikwa’s side. He really needs to sharpen up and get working in tandem with Dias.

Always struggle to Bristol away.

Dias is having a real battle with Bryan.

Bryan has hacked him down again. Ref letting it go. Keep your cool, Dias, he ain’t wurf it!

Having a few spells going forward but not looking comfortable defensively. More than a few misplaced passes so far.

Relax, it's the first game of he season. Nothing is won or lost first week in August

That's true otherwise Derby would have been promoted as champions every year.

Hit the post, edging back into the game

🤪

Foul count is comfortably being dominated by Brizzle. Looking to stop any sign of Forest breaking forward. Ref being lenient so they’ll carry on.

34 gone. Apart from the goal and a few edgy corners, it has been fairly even. Forest have settled down a bit. Murphy needs to get involved.

I am now officially angry at iFollow.

Not good enough. Especially at £110 a year!

Nearly half time. Forest have had a few attacks but the best they have managed is a weak effort by Guedioura straight at their goalie.

Forest have stretched them a few times but just aren’t incisive enough at the business end.

Grabban will be getting properly warmed up I would imagine...

This isn't how I anticipated this game turning out. I can see this staying 1-0 till F.T.

HT. Time for some Karanka tinkering.

Forest have probably been the better team towards them the end of the half. Brizzle profited early on from some proper nerves from Forest.

Match going flat after Geddys injury, that suits City. They will come out looking for a second goal and that will finish the game off. We need to sort things out from the start of the second half.

Has Murphy done anything?

Surely grabban will come on soon.

Missed Forest’s best chance. About it, I think.

Guedioura was quite involved early on. Hopefully a strong cup of tea will sort him out.

Second half is imminent.

COYR!

Grabban will be the first change, I reckon.
