Arsenal x1.37 Vs Nottingham Forest x8.00; Draw x5.00

The clash between Arsenal and Nottm Forest will also be exciting. Arsenal is expected to win with their current lineup. Arteta should optimize his best players to get all three points, avoiding speculation and suboptimal performance. Moreover, Nottm Forest's performance is sometimes quite surprising. So, they need to prepare well and seriously to win the match.

However, unfortunately, Saka will not be able to join in this match, as he is still recovering from an injury. Arteta has already announced this.

Given the uncertainty, the match could go either way, making it an exciting encounter.

Manchester United's higher position in the league table could indicate a slight advantage, both teams are struggling, making it hard to predict a clear winner.
 You mention Manchester City not being the same team as before, which could impact their performance.

Their position on the table do not help decide that. You could go up and could go down at any given time. In this case scenario, Manchester United only limitation has got to be their mindset. I mean the mental strength of certain players in tye sqaud, when that changes, they will go forward and make good wins. The win I envisage against Manchester City should be a confidence booster for them though. The bookmakers might not agree, but Man United have a better chance than City.

The derby is going to be a confidence booster for teams. City haven't been playing well and so is United. Anyone who gets the derby win would definitely build on that.

Arsenal club is really dominating in the first half game against Nottingham by one goal score in the 32 minutes of the game by Zubimendi M. And the first half of the game ended in favour of Arsenal club by the one goal scored in the 32 minutes of first half, with the partner Arsenal players are still going, i believe that more goals will surely comes in the second half of the game and i know that it is a very interesting and tough game for Nottingham but they are still playing there best to be able to hold Arsenal in their home, if not the Arsenal that i know could win Nottingham up to 2 to 3 goals in the first but I'm still waiting to watch the second half of the game to the end of it.

Arsenal are really playing with plenty of depth this season, can you imagine they are putting on a great show and they don't even have their superstar like Saka to be worried on who gets goals for them...Could this be that season they get to secure a premier league title after several failed attempts and ending in second position ??

Didn't look at the bookies offers, was it so obvious that Arsenal was going to win this one without breaking a sweat 👌 Well-done Arsenal 3goals for 3 points

Arsenal know that they could not win the league last season due to lack of points but they are playing well this time and they have lost only one of their 4 matches which was against Liverpool by a single goal in which their strength is clear to us. Arsenal is strengthening itself and I hope it will make it strong enough in this league. It does not matter much because first of all it means more whether they are winning the matches or not and then the strength and hard work of the players will be seen. If they are trying hard then I think they can succeed in it. Arsenal's hard work and efforts have made a lot of impression in the league due to which they will have to go through some difficult matches and become strong.

 Arsenal take another three points in their home turf with David Raya increasing his clean sheets record to 44 and I must say I was impressed. Arsenal were able to maintain the same fire they had in the first half down to the end of the game and to an extent it became difficult for Nottingham Forest to even play like their usual selves. This is the second defeat in a row for them and I'm beginning to have the feeling that the Nottingham of last season may not be the same this time around.

I don’t know why some people were thinking Arsenal won’t be able to get a win today, I was just sure that Arsenal will win the match today and they did, Arsenal dominated the match, and they score 3 goals in the match which I never expected,  I was expecting the goal margin to be a close one, but surprisingly Arsenal confidently won the match, it’s really a bad start for Nottingham forest.

Nottingham forest performance is kind of poor this season, and with them changing a coach, then I knew Arsenal will be able to get a win today, we don’t expect a new coach to join a team then he will change everything immediately, it’s going to take some time, so I knew Nottingham forest getting a new coach is an advantage for Arsenal.

For Manchester City to have lost two games out of three games played round in the table, if they should lose in the derby that should be a terrible approach to begin the season. Manchester City i won't believe to be falling off so easy, they may not be in perfect form for the season yet but assuming they will lose in a derby while they play home is a big judgement, favorites in the game should be City not United.

Arsenal football team played very well in the last match as they did 3 goals in this match which was the requirement of the team and opponent team could not do any goal in this match and match was totally one sided. Zubimendi was a dominant person in this match because he did 2 goals in this match and he gave hundred percent to win this match . He did his first goal in the first half of the match but after that we saw goal by that player in the second half and he did goal at 79 minutes.Gyökeres also played crutial role in this match as he did second goal of the match and he was a good performer of this match as comparison to opponent team. The stats of opponent team was very low quality and could not do special in this match.

I cant imagine how mad is for sure the owner of the Nothingham Forest after sack Nuno Gomez and having a super heated discussion last year and now with some reinforcements plus a new coach like Ange Postecoglu they are doing much worse than before.

I can heard the shouts in that dressroom.

I can not believe, Manchester United is most likely to beat Manchester City in this derby. Ordinarily, the derby used to be quite competitive, this time around it looks like Man U will beat Man City hands down with the poor performance Manchester City is currently suffering from. The Manchester United have on several occasions win Manchester City at home and away but with this time around, Manchester City has shown weaker performance.

Results that come with the international break..

Just when pundits around the world were expecting to see goals in most of these games, then players had other plans by playing the boredraws which is not cool to seat and watch for 90minutes..unless we have some punters out here that wanted the unders to happen but 0-0 is not what we want to see!

Just hoping the Manchester Derby tomorrow will produce goals and not this week have been subjected to..

I think a lot is already wrong with Nottingham Forest even though I can't place where their problem started. One thing that is obvious now is that sacking of Nuno Gomez was a big mistake because he was instrumental to their success. At this point they should pray not to be relegated because no team is playing this season,  even the newly promoted teams like Sunderland and Leeds.

The problem of forest is the president of the club and every one is aware of it he likes interfering with the internal affairs of the club that was supposed to be handled by the Coach and his players especially selling and signing of new players into the team, this was what lead to the fallout between Nuno and the president which eventually lead to his sacking and this is going to have a negative effects on the club performance.

We still have two games  incoming to clean our eyes with, I could accept the other results but Cry vs Sun game was least expected and I was very disappointed at Crystal Palace for not scoring at least a goal against a very bad Sunderland.

Games after international break are always boring with fewer goals but I expected a better games at least.

[Berry2d]

Good job for arsenal in their super win against Nottingham forest today 3 uninterrupted goals and a super dominance in the game,  what a good start after the international break. All thanks to martin and viktor gyoekeres that helped sealed the game for arsenal, although arsenal winning the game was what we all where expecting because in terms of quality arsenal's squad is some meters ahead of Nottingham forest even before the last concluded transfer window that arsenal had added more quality players to the team while Nottingham forest sold some of their key players.
At least it is clear that the sacked coach was never the cause of their inconsistent performance in the beginning of the season as the management thought before sacking him.

Last season was a very bad season for Arsenal, and not only last season, but they always try their best almost every season to make attempts, but at the end of the day, they end up in the second position. That’s what has been happening for Arsenal for the past several seasons, and that’s why this season they came well prepared to break a wonderful record in the Premier League with the best players.

Because if we observe the Arsenal performances right from the beginning of this season, it proves that they didn’t come to play this season; they came to win the league. Look at their game today against Nottingham Forest; their performance was extremely impressive because their results were beyond my expectations. If Arsenal can continue maintaining their form in this way, I don’t think they will have any challenges this season.

They were never bad in those last two seasons; they only had issues with squad depth and struggling to fill in players when some of their key players were injured, and the other issue was finding a proper striker, which I believe they were able to resolve this season.

We could see it in today's game  without Saka and Odegaard and the covers did exceptional well.

The game later ended with Arsenal defeating Nottingham forest 3-0. Zubimendi M. Scored two goals followed by V.Gyokores that netted 1 goal for the gunners. Zubimendi M was rated Player of the match,no doubt his performance contributed immensely to Arsenal victory over Nottingham. I am surprised that Nottingham forest couldn't produce a single goal despite all the goals chances they had.I think the sack of head coach Nuno Espirito wasn't necessary,his exit from the club at this early stage of the season may affect the performance of Nottingham forest players.
