Nottingham Forest Vs Man City Preview

With just one top-flight win to their name this season, Nottingham Forest are perched in 19th spot on six points. Oliver Glasner has not overseen the start many at the City Ground were predicting and the 2-0 loss at Brentford last week means the Austrian will surely be starting to feel the Evangelos Marinakis-heat.

On the topic of pressure, Enzo Maresca didn’t do simself any favours as Man City lost to Brighton on Halloween. The loss on home turf meant it was back-to-back defeats which has allowed Arsenal to reclaim top-spot. However, the UCL win over RB Leipzig on Wednesday has teed City up nicely for the MD10 clash.

Nottingham Forest Vs Man City Team News

Veteran forward Chris Wood may get the nod over Liam Delap up top for Nottingham Forest. The latter hasn’t found the back of the net in the last five Premier League fixtures. Elsewhere, Nicolo Savona is injured but Daniel Munoz and Ousmane Diomande are both pushing to start.

As for Man City, Enzo Fernandez is likely to keep his midfield spot alongside former Forest hero Elliot Anderson. In fact, Enzo Maresca isn’t likely to make numerous changes from the side who beat RB Leipzig. Therefore, the usual suspects such as Erling Haaland, Iliman Ndiaye and Rayan Cherki should all get the nod from the off.
