Team News

Arsenal
Nottingham Forest
  • Arsenal could be without as many as seven players through injury for the welcome of Nottingham Forest.
  • Ben White is set for a spell on the sidelines after undergoing knee surgery, while Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice and Leandro Trossard will all require assessment.
  • Kieran Tierney has returned to training, though this one comes too soon for the Scot, leaving Jakub Kiwior and Oleksandr Zinchenko battling to start at left-back on Saturday.
  • Danilo and Ibrahim Sangare miss out due to injury, while Elliot Andersen is a doubt.

Prediction

  • Arsenal headed into the international break winless in three matches, following the 1-1 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge last time out.
  • The Gunners suffered three successive away defeats prior to that match, and could do with a spirit-lifting victory here.
  • Nottingham Forest's impressive start to the season showed signs of slowing down two weeks ago, with Newcastle 3-1 winners at the City Ground.
  • The visitors remain level on points with Arsenal as they head to the Emirates, but will surely be beaten in north London.

  • Both teams have scored in 5 of Forests last 7 EPL away matches.

  • draw or under 2.5

  • Arsenal defender Ben White has been ruled out for "months" after having knee surgery, manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed.

  • Off late Nottingham not a joke draw or away

  • Saka TSA +180

  • ARSENAL Raya, Timber, Saliba, Magalhes, Calafiori, Jorginho, Merino, Odegaard, Saka, Trossard, Jesus

  • FOREST Sels, Aina, Murillo, Milenkovic, Moreno, Ward-Prowse, Dominguez, Yates, Hudson-Odoi, Elanga, Awonyi.

  • Arsenal Win

  • Arsenal top players are back. This should be a routine win.

  • @GoonerRSA Depends who returns fit.They will also have one eye on Tuesdays UCL game at Sporting Lisbon.

  • I doubt Zinchenko will start. More likely to see Timber or Kiwior there. Tierney is back in training. Trossard is definitely out with a hamstring injury.

  • @Overmars isn't Calafiori fit? Do you think he comes straight in?

  • I predict a close, hard fought match. 2-1 to the Arsenal.

  • We have to shut down their wingers. Play the full backs deep or man to man. Starve their wingers of the ball and they don't offer as much threat.

  • arsenal win ht/ft
