Nottingham Forest have won six on the bounce in the Premier League, and are in the midst of a title challenge.
However, their attention this weekend turns to the FA Cup, as the Tricky Trees host Championship outfit Luton Town.
It has been a testing period for the Hatters following their relegation from the top-flight, and they could be starring down the barrel of a second straight relegation in the Championship this term.

Nottingham Forest vs. Luton Prediction
