The starting lineup for each team in their last match of this tournament is listed.

Arsenal

The Gunners come into this match on a four-game winless streak. The last time they went this long without a win in the Premier League was in April of last year, which cost them the title to Manchester City. Mikel Arteta's side drew with Liverpool (2-2) and Chelsea (1-1), and lost to Bournemouth (0-2) and Newcastle (0-1). As a result, the club has dropped to fourth place, just one point ahead of the ninth position.

• The Londoners have conceded in their last seven league matches.
• Arsenal is unbeaten in their last eight home games in the Premier League, with six wins and two draws.
• The Gunners have not lost in the first half of their last 14 home matches in the Premier League (9 wins and 5 draws).

Nottingham Forest

Nuno Espírito Santo's side lost 1-3 at home to Newcastle in their last outing. Before that, the club was unbeaten in four consecutive Premier League games, securing three wins and one draw. Nottingham Forest is one step below Arsenal, trailing only on goal difference. It's also worth noting Nottingham Forest's defense, which has conceded only 10 goals. Only Liverpool has a better defensive record (6 goals).

• A maximum of three goals have been scored in 9 of Nottingham Forest's last 12 league games.
• Nottingham Forest has opened the scoring in their last five Premier League matches.
• The club has not won the first half in 20 of their last 22 away games in the Premier League (13 draws and 7 losses).

Arsenal vs. Nottingham Forest: Match Prediction

This season, the top ten is incredibly tight – just one point separates the third and ninth clubs, so dropping points can quickly knock a team down several places. Notably, the opponents are next to each other in the standings and are vying for a top-four spot. I believe it will be very difficult for the Londoners in this match, so I'm not rushing to back a clean win for them. Instead, I prefer a bet that they won't lose, with a maximum of three goals in the match.

Nottingham Forest is dangerous even on the road, where they are unbeaten in seven consecutive Premier League matches. The team is strong defensively and dangerous on counterattacks. Nuno Espírito Santo will likely employ the same strategy in the upcoming match. Breaking down one of the league's best defenses will be challenging for Arsenal, especially since Nottingham Forest has conceded more than one goal only once in their last seven away Premier League matches. Arsenal has struggled with finishing – in their last four league matches and two Champions League games, they've only scored more than one goal once.

My prediction – 1X and Total under 3.5 goals
