Match Preview of Arsenal vs Forest
Second meets bottom in Sunday afternoon's Premier League showdown at the Emirates Stadium, as Arsenal tackle Nottingham Forest aiming to avoid a third successive game without a win.
The Gunners went down 2-0 to PSV Eindhoven in the Europa League on Thursday, while Steve Cooper's men bested Liverpool 1-0 last weekend.
While taking nothing away from PSV Eindhoven's stellar performance at the Philips Stadion - Cody Gakpo and Xavi Simons in particular terrorised the Arsenal backline - it is fair to say that the result had been coming for Mikel Arteta's side.
As impressive as their winning streak had been, the Gunners had failed to convince against Bodo/Glimt, Leeds United or PSV in the previous week, and strikes from Luuk de Jong and Joey Veerman means that Arteta's men have it all to do against FC Zurich next week to seal a last-16 spot.
Having exploded out of the blocks against Southampton last week, the Gunners were also pegged back by Ralph Hasenhuttl's side - one of a string of less-than-dominant performances that have led to a touch of apprehension creeping in - and Arsenal have been knocked down to second in the table after Manchester City beat Leicester City on Saturday.
Our Predicted Lineups
Arsenal possible starting lineup:Ramsdale; Tomiyasu, White, Saliba, Tierney; Xhaka, Partey; Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli; Jesus
Forest possible starting lineup: starting lineup:Henderson; Aurier, Cook, McKenna, Williams; Yates, Kouyate, Freuler; Gibbs-White, Awoniyi, Johnson
Who will win the match?
We say: Arsenal 1-0 Forest. Arsenal facing newly-promoted teams at the Emirates usually only ever ends one way, but the fatigued Gunners can take nothing for granted versus a Forest side who are growing in confidence by the week, especially with Arteta's side consistently failing to keep the opposition at bay at home.
