Newcastle have dominated possession and had the majority of the chances but have failed to signifcantly test Dean Henderson in the Forest goal so far in the Premier League season opener.
Allan Saint-Maximin, Bruno Guimaraes, Joelinton and Callum Wilson all saw decent chances go begging.
Eddie Howe handed a debut to goalkeeper Nick Pope while Sven Botman has started the game on the bench.

10. Allan Saint-Maximin - 8
A persistent threat down the left but should have scored at least once following a close range header in the first half and blocked effort in the second. Photo: Stu Forster
11. Callum Wilson - 7
Had a quiet game until a deft finish but the game beyond Forest’s reach. His third opening day goal in a row for the club. Photo: Stu Forster
