Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal: Premier League - LIVE
The Gunners travel to the East Midlands hoping to avoid successive defeats away from home in the Premier League, with the 3-0 defeat to Brighton a month ago still very much fresh in the memory. Mikel Arteta's side, though, should be in good spirits at the City Ground after beating Lille in midweek to continue their 100 percent winning start to the league phase of this season's Champions League.
However, preparations have been disrupted by a fresh injury blow to Piero Hincapie following last weekend's win over Leeds. That said, Martin Zubimendi could return, while Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz and Martin Odegaard are expected to start.
Forest, meanwhile, began the day a point clear of the relegation zone after suffering back-to-back defeats either side of the international break. Oliver Glasner will hope to have influential midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White available for selection as he aims to get the season up and running.

Eze did enough in midweek against Lille to keep his place. He really stepped up in the final 30 minutes of that match, once Havertz, Saka and Odegaard came on.

Back to a major talking point from yesterday. Should Morgan Rogers have been sent off for Chelsea in their 2-0 win at Everton?
He suffered a muscle injury during Forest's 3-1 loss to Crystal Palace last Sunday as Glasner endured a miserable first return to Selhurst Park. The midfielder has not been able to take part in full training since, though is on course to take part in Saturday's session in a bid to prove his fitness before Forest welcome the reigning Premier League champions to the City Ground.
PA Saliba's reaction to squad photo snub The initial photo was released earlier this week, with the Premier League trophy and Community Shield perched in front of manager Mikel Arteta and his players. However, Saliba was surprisingly not included.
