Overview
- Sean Dyche made seven changes to his XI, handing Arnaud Kalimuendo a first start up front due to shortages in attack.
- Sturm Graz goalkeeper Oliver Christensen saved Morgan Gibbs-White’s 35th-minute penalty, and Nicolas Dominguez later hit the crossbar.
- The stalemate leaves Nottingham Forest on five points and 18th in the Europa League league-phase standings.
- Dyche said Forest were “without 11” because of injuries, suspensions and squad restrictions, with Elliot Anderson rested and Igor Jesus suspended.
- Focus turns to Sunday’s home match against Leeds before the international break, with squad management a clear priority.
