Wood will miss Nottingham Forest's Premier League match against Manchester United but remains a possibility for the Leeds game. He is unlikely to start against Sturm Graz in the Europa League. Igor Jesus or Taiwo Awoniyi are expected to continue filling in during Wood's absence. Nottingham Forest sit in the bottom three with one win in nine matches under three different managers and have scored only five goals this season.
