Arsenal to Win-to-Nil
We're not convinced there will be any upset this weekend and have backed Arsenal to win and keep a clean sheet against the division's bottom side. Arsenal have won four of their last six games against Nottingham Forest and have kept three clean sheets during that period. The Gunners have won five of their last six matches in all competitions, keeping clean sheets in four of those victories, while their guests have lost three and failed to score in three of their last six league games.
Gabriel Jesus to Score
Arsenal's top goalscorer this season is due a goal this weekend having failed to find the back of the net in his last five matches in all competitions. The former Man City striker last scored against Tottenham in the North London derby win and has netted 5-goals in the Premier League so far this season. The Gunners are going to create a lot of chances against this Nottingham Forest side and our money is going on Jesus to score at least once during the 90-minutes.

Top hosts bottom in the Premier League on Sunday
Arsenal were held to a 1-1 draw at Southampton last time out, despite taking the lead in the 11th-minute through Xhaka. The visitors led 1-0 at the break but it always looked like Arsenal were going to need a second goal to secure their victory. Instead, Armstrong popped up with a 65th-minute equaliser for the Saints who secured an unlikely point in a game most expected them to lose.
Arsenal Predicted Lineup: Ramsdale, Tomiyasu, Gabriel, White, Saliba, Xhaka, Partey, Ødegaard, Saka, Jesus & Martinelli
Liverpool were the big favourites ahead of their trip to The City Ground last weekend but things did not go their way. Van Dijk was guilty of missing a hat full of really good goalscoring opportunities and in the end, Liverpool were punished for not taking their chances as Awoniyi fired in a 55th-minute winner for the hosts against his former employers.
Nottingham Forest Predicted Lineup: Henderson, Cook, Aurier, McKenna, Williams, Kouyaté, Freuler, Lingard, Gibbs-White, Yates & Awoniyi

Arsenal: Emile Smith Rowe, Marquinhos, Mohamed Elneny and Oleksandr Zinchenko could all miss out for the hosts due to injury and illness.
