How each side is likely to approach the game. Confirmed line-ups are released about an hour before kick-off.
Home
Nottingham Forest
City Ground, Nottingham
Nottingham Forest are a mid-table side who are hard to beat at home but can struggle to create against organised defences, which keeps their games tighter.
Away
Arsenal
Emirates Stadium, London
Arsenal are among the title contenders. Expect them to control possession away at City Ground and push Forest back, so their chance count, and the corners market, tends to run high.

Betting notes
How to bet on Forest vs Arsenal
Four angles to weigh before you place a bet on this fixture.
- 01
Wait for the confirmed line-ups, usually out an hour before kick-off. A missing striker or first-choice keeper can move the goals lines more than the 1X2 price.
- 02
Powerplay247 is an exchange: you can back or lay every market on Forest vs Arsenal and trade out in-play, for example after an early goal, instead of waiting for full time.
- 03
The model leans towards goals: over 2.5 at 54% and both teams to score at 57%. Goals markets look sharper than the result here.
- 04
The corners range is 11-14. The favourite tends to win most of them while the underdog sits deep, so team corners can beat the match total.
