Man City
Nottingham Forest
  • Manchester City could still be without the likes of Kevin de Bruyne, Jack Grealish, John Stones and Mateo Kovacic for this one.
  • Bernardo Silva picked up an injury in Tuesday's Champions League opener against FK Crvena Zvezda and his absence could hand Matheus Nunes his first Premier League start for City.
  • Jeremy Doku should also return to the starting XI after his impressive display against West Ham.
  • Nottingham Forest are close to a clean bill of health, with Danilo the only player doubtful ahead of the trip to the Etihad Stadium.

Prediction

  • Manchester City made it seven straight victories in all competitions since the start of the season with a 3-1 win over FK Crvena Zvezda in their first Champions League match on Tuesday night.
  • City currently top the Premier League table having taken all 15 points available, they have also conceded the fewest goals of any team in the division (3).
  • Nottingham Forest held on for a point at home to Burnley on Monday evening, but will be boosted by Callum Hudson-Odoi's first goal for the club.
  • Steve Cooper's team have so far taken seven points from five matches and sit eighth, with their favourable goal difference handing them the advantage over Crystal Palace and Fulham, who are level on points.
  • Pep Guardiola's side are expected to make it six wins from six in the Premier League here.

    I think Foden and Haland will score first.

    City is looking very light in the attacking midfield area...One more injury may mean serious problems...Pep either need to loan or re-organise his system... Still should win this match though...(almost 40 shots on goal in the last match)...Turner won't be able to deal with that...
