Mikel Arteta’s men must win at the City Ground to have any real chance of capitalising on any slip ups from leaders Manchester City
Only a win at Nottingham Forest will do for Arsenal on Saturday if they want to keep their faintest Premier League title hopes alive.
The Gunners know a win for Manchester City on Sunday would seal the deal but must do their jobs at the City Ground at least.
Given the manner of their 3-0 defeat at home to Brighton and Hove Albion last week, it would be a real shame to end such a promising campaign in a defeat to a Forest team battling relegation.
Steve Cooper’s side got a creditable draw away at Chelsea last week and are scrapping for their lives.
Date, kick-off time and venue
Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal is scheduled for 7.30pm kick-off Kenyan time at the City Ground in Nottingham on Saturday.
