Arsenal need to avoid defeat later in the afternoon when they travel to the City Stadium at Nottingham Forest in order to defend the Premier League title. While it remains highly unlikely that Arsenal can overhaul Manchester City from here, defeat on the banks of the River Trent would see the challenge come to an end in rather humbling fashion.

A response to last week’s defeat against Brighton is required as Mikel Arteta has been so impressive this season to watch them go down in disappointing fashion. Granit Xhaka got the nod at Kieran Tierney at left-back for the visitors, while Thomas Partey and Jorginho both started in midfield.

Steve Cooper’s side are fighting for their lives at the bottom of the table and have built their bid to stay in impressive home form, with the City Ground not being a happy place to look for Arsenal in recent years. Catch the action live with Standard Sport’s dedicated match blog! Simon Collings will present expert analysis from the ground up!

It’s a bit like watching Arsenal under Wenger. A very deep and compact forest, with Arsenal trying to find a pass in the narrowest of spaces.

34 min: Over 80% of the ball for Arsenal so far.

They look dangerous when Jesus is able to spin him on the edge of the box, but apart from that they’re comfortable for Forrest. So far, so good.

It’s fair to say that it doesn’t go well for the Gunners…

Very sloppy from Arsenal there as it gives Forest a chance to take the lead. Interesting to see if their heads are falling off now.

harsh!

Odegaard gives the ball a terrible pass and Forest moves away. Gibbs-White runs forward, slides the pass to Awoniyi and beats Ramsdale to give Forest the deal.

Some quirky set-piece routines from Arsenal so far, perhaps a sign they’ve tried the title all but gone.

Nico Joffre, their core trainer, is barking orders around every corner.
