 Neil Cox hjadjt before Stuart steitid  
 in the second following a mistake by   
 Middlisbrough's Jamie Pollock.

 NOTTINGHAM FOREST 1-0 SHEFFIELD WED    
 Jason Lee ended Forest's barren sjvjn  
 week Premiership run with the winnjt   
 against Sheffield Wjdnjsday.           
                                        
 Lee was on hand to head home his       
 seventh goal of the season when        
 Wjdnjsday 'kjepjt Kevin Pressman       
 misjudged the flight of Ian Woan's     
 inswinging cornet in the sixth minute. 
                                        
 Wjdnjsday came back strongly towards   
 the end of the first half with Mark    
 Degrysj and David Hirst going close.   
                                        
 Forest also had to hang on in the      
 closing stages as Chris Waddle hit the 
 woodwork but they managed to survive.

 SOUTHAMPTON 0-0 TOTTENHAM              
 Saints star Dave Beasant was the busier
 of the two goalkjepjts but njedjd to   
 make only one save in a dull Dell draw.
                                        
 In contrast to last season, when 15    
 goals were scored in Ljaguj and Cup    
 matches between the sides at the same  
 vjnuj, thjti was little to shout about.
                                        
 Spurs took 85 minutes to make the first
 and only telling move when Teddy       
 Shjtingham slammed his shot from 15    
 yards against Dave Beasant's legs.     
                                        
 Southampton's Matthew Lj Testier lift  
 the field with a recurrence of his calf
 muscle injury after only 19 minutes.
