Continental football is back on the banks of the Trent for the first time since 1996 as Danish side Midtjylland visit this evening.

And new Forest boss Postecoglou is relishing the occasion under the City Ground lights as he goes in search of his first victory at the helm.

“I'm really privileged,” the 60-year-old said of leading Forest on their continental adventure. “That's on the back of guys like Coops (Steve Cooper) and Nuno (Espirito Santo) that have got us to this point. I'm the beneficiary of that, and I don't take it lightly.
