Nottingham Forest vs Man City: Preview

Forest seemed to have turned a corner as of late, with many initially worrying about their early-season form, but there is now a healthy gap between them and the bottom three, despite losing 1-0 at Fulham on Monday.

Dyche will have to come up with a masterplan to beat Pep Guardiola's side, who are in the midst of a rampant run of form.

Duo Willy Boly and Ibrahim Sangare are both on duty at the Africa Cup of Nations, whilst Ola Aina (thigh), Chris Wood (knee) and Ryan Yates (thigh) are sidelined.

City swept aside the Hammers at the Etihad Stadium last time out, with Erling Haaland scoring another two goals.

The Norwegian freak now has 25 goals in 23 games at club level this term and will be bidding to add a few more before 2025 ends.

Rayan Cherki is beginning to show flashes of why the Sky Blues brought him to the club in the summer, adding flicks and tricks galore to his display at the Etihad Stadium against West Ham.

Rayan Ait-Nouri and Omar Marmoush are both away at AFCON, with Jeremy Doku (calf), Rodri, John Stones, Oscar Bobb (all thigh) and Mateo Kovacic (foot) all currently unavailable.
