Nottingham Forest vs Newcastle United LIVE: Premier League latest score, goals and updates from fixture

Forest have movement on their bench as the hosts seem to have a double change on the cards.

Guimaraes! After Sels palms a left-sided cross out, the Brazilian goes for an audacious effort with the outside of his right foot as he looks for the top-left corner after dancing centrally. It's just over!

Forest then counter with Hudson-Odoi, and he works it in-field to Gibbs-White. Newcastle get bodies back to slow the move and the midfielder stumbles over the ball as the away side regain possession.

The day's visitors are enjoying much of the ball early in this second half. Livramento tries to make inroads on the right, yet Murillo clears well. Newcastle keep on coming.

Newcastle take the kick-off with Isak and we're back in action for the second half. The Magpies have work to do.

While Yates is lucky, on further review, to not be booked for his elbow on the defender. With another risque challenge on Longstaff in the centre, he was lucky the Magpie didn't go down easy, otherwise he could've been in trouble. If anything, these small moments have added to a wider intense atmosphere on the bank of the Trent. Newcastle put in 19 crosses to Nottingham Forest's seven in the opening half but only one of the Magpies' was successful. Murillo recorded seven clearances in the first 45 minutes, the most of any Nottingham Forest player and six more than any Newcastle player. Forest have exceeded their 0.33 xG with Murillo's well-taken header, while Newcastle have underperformed their 0.42 xG. This is the fourth time in six Premier League away matches this season that Newcastle have trailed at half-time, however, they can still stay confident in their abilities, as they have only lost one of the previous three (W1 D1).

Nottingham Forest lead Newcastle 1-0 at the City Ground as we enter the interval. In a relatively even, fast-paced encounter, Murillo's powerfully-taken header is the difference maker. The game's tempo was set almost immediately. Yates managed to evade punishment with an accidental elbow to Livramento's face before Burn was booked for a cynical foul on Gibbs-White in the seventh minute. Willock consistently looked like a promising outlet for Newcastle on the left, yet when he was forced to defend in the 20th minute, he gave away the game's so-far influential free-kick as Elanga was tripped on the right byline. The Swede got up and crossed excellently and his ball was met brilliantly by Murillo to head down past Pope for his first Forest goal in 47 club appearances. There have been a handful of half-bothered penalty shouts, yet with two physical defences playing a big part in this end-to-end match, referee Taylor has remained unmoved.

HALF-TIME: NOTTINGHAM FOREST 1-0 NEWCASTLE UNITED

It's a bit of a crowd scene on the edge of the Forest box. newcastle's pressure culminates in a Schar shot from range that gets blocked. Wood nearly counters, but Burn deals with the danger.

Gibbs-White and Joelinton's battle continues, as this time, the England man fouls his Brazilian opponent.
