Nottingham Forest and Millwall are playing out a goalless draw in this afternoon's Championship clash at the City Ground.

The visitors were first to threaten as a Mark Beevers ball was cleared away, before the Reds launched a counter-attack which culminated in a Ben Osborne corner that failed to test David Forde.

Both sides exchanged probing attacks in the early stages of the game but struggled to muster any serious chances on goal.

In the 18th minute, Millwall embarked on a bright spell as Magaye Gueye blasted a shot wide of the Forest goal, before Jos Hooiveld bore down on goal and unleashed a long-range effort that was just off target.

Forest goalkeeper Dorus de Vries then pulled off a save just before the half-hour mark, the Dutchman expertly clawing away a Beevers header as it looked certain for the bottom corner of the net.

The Reds ended the first half on a high as Robert Tesche and Henri Lansbury both registered dangerous chances on the Millwall goal.
