After a one week break from League action because of last weeks Birmingham Senior Cup tie at Boldmere St Michaels, Keith Bertschins side will be looking to continue a recent good run of form against Forest at Damson Park.
There was no fixture between the two sides last season as Forest were not in the Barclays Premier Reserves League north division but Blues won the reverse fixture this season 1-0 at The City Ground courtesy of a late strike from Jamie Clapham.Recent encounters between the teams: 2004/2005 17th Aug Forest Res 0 -1 BluesRes PREM
