Team news, predicted lineups and score
For Arsenal, Martin Odegaard, Riccardo Calafiori and Saka should be healthy for this clash. Declan Rice remains a question mark. He suffered a broken toe a few weeks ago, then tried (and failed) to play a full match against Chelsea before being substituted at halftime. But Rice is tough as nails, so expect him to at least try to start again.
Ben White is out after undergoing “minor” knee surgery. Leandro Trossard is expected to miss the match after picking up a knock in a Nations League game on Nov. 17.
Arsenal predicted lineup: Raya, Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori, Odegaard, Partey, Rice, Saka, Havertz, Martinelli.
For Forest, Ivory Coast international Ibrahim Sangare could make his return to the midfield after missing two months with a hamstring injury. He started the season absolutely on fire in helping Forest earn five points from their first three matches. Danilo remains out while recovering from a broken ankle.
Nottingham Forest predicted lineup: Sels, Aina, Milenkovic, Murillo, Moreno, Yates, Dominguez, Elanga, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi, Wood
Predicted score: While Arsenal are getting healthier, it will take time for them to truly gel. Simultaneously, Forest come into this match with zero pressure on their shoulders. Arsenal 2, Nottingham Forest 2
