Nottingham Forest, Recent FormNottingham Forest will not be too disappointed to take a point from their 2-2 result against Chelsea last time out. During that encounter they had 24% possession and had 11 attempts on goal with 2 on target, while their opponents hit 6 of their 14 shots on goal.
Whilst manager Steve Cooper will be pleased with his team's performance in front of goal, having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games, he will want to tighten up his defence if they are to pick up more points, with 13 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 15 games overall.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form, having lost 3 of their last 6 games and picking up only 2 wins.
Taiwo Awoniyi will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 4 goals in the last 6 league outings for Nottingham Forest.
Arsenal, Recent FormMikel Arteta will have some work to do building up his players after their 3-0 home thrashing at the hands of Brighton & Hove Albion. Their share of possession in that meeting was 41%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target. Brighton & Hove Albion had 12 shots on goal with 6 on target.
