The league leaders come to the City Ground after the international break looking to continue their excellent start to the season but face a Nottingham Forest side who looked to have shaken off a blip in form when they won at Peterborough last time out.
Bluebirds boss Mackay told Wales Online: 'If you look through their side you see an awful lot of league games among the players there as well as an experienced manager.
'They have experience which in certain times of games they know what to do and how to do it.'
