Command Analysis
Arsenal
EnglandCurrent form
Arsenal have been disappointing their fans more often than not throughout the season. With each round in the Premier League, the Londoners are moving away from the real fight for first place. After 11 rounds, they have 19 points and are in an intermediate fourth place. The gap from the leading Liverpool is already nine points, Manchester City from the second line has a gap from the Gunners of four points.
Mikel Arteta men went into the international break on an unpleasant streak of four matches without a win in the Premier League. Undoubtedly, the draws with Liverpool (2:2) and Chelsea (1:1) can be counted as an asset. However, in the confrontations with Bournemouth (0:2) and Newcastle (0:1) they failed to score a single point. The attack began to fail very often, somewhere there was no luck with the implementation, somewhere there was not enough courage and determination up front. Plus, in the last matches, Saka and Havertz, who are the mainstays of the attack, have lost their aim. It should be noted that the last time Arsenal had such a long streak without a win in the Premier League was back in April last year. Then the Londoners lost the title to the Citizens.
In the Champions League, Arsenal have collected seven points in the first three rounds. However, in the last away game, a minimal 0:1 defeat was recorded against Inter. With seven points, the Gunners are in 12th place in the table.
Disqualifications and injuries
Tierney, Tomiyasu and White are all out due to injury, while Calafiori and Trossard are questionable.
Interesting trends for betting
- Arsenal have conceded goals in their last seven Premier League matches
- In the three previous matches, taking into account all tournaments, the Gunners have not won in the first half
- Arsenal are on an eight-match unbeaten run in the Premier League at home, with six wins and two draws.
Probable line-up: Raya - Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko - Odegaard, Partey, Rice - Saka, Havertz, Martinelli.
Nottingham Forest
EnglandCurrent form
Nottingham Forest has become one of the main discoveries of the season in the Premier League. In 11 rounds, the "foresters" have scored 19 points and are in fifth place in the table. The modest team has only two defeats. One of them was in the previous round in the confrontation with Newcastle (1:3), and in that game Nuno Espirito Santo charges were the first to open the scoring, but they did not hold on to the advantage. Among the most resounding achievements, it is impossible not to note that it was Forest that inflicted the only defeat of the season in the Premier League on Liverpool, and they did it away with a score of 1:0.
It should be noted that https://www.nottinghamforest.co.uk target=_blank rel=noopener>Nottingham Forest are reliable in defense – they have conceded more than one goal per game only twice in 11 rounds. Wood stands out in attack, and Hudson-Odoi and Morgan Gibbs-White are always ready to support him. Recall that Chris Wood was recognized as the best player in October in the Premier League. The striker returns from the national team in a great mood, as he scored five goals in two games.
Nottingham are at their best when playing second fiddle. It is no coincidence that the team has not lost away from home since the start of the season – three wins and two draws. They managed to take points not only from Liverpool, but also from Chelsea at Stamford Bridge (1:1).
Disqualifications and injuries
Danilo and Sangare are injured and will not play today. Anderson appearance on the field remains in doubt.
Interesting trends for betting
- Nottingham Forest have drawn at half-time in three of their last five matches
- There have been three or fewer goals in nine of the Foresters' last 12 Premier League games
- Nottingham Forest have opened the scoring in their last five Premier League games
- Nottingham Forest have received fewer yellow cards than their opponents in five of their last six matches
Probable line-up: Sels - Aina, Milenkovic, Murillo, Moreno - Yates, Dominguez - Elanga, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi - Wood.

3.40Tip and bets
Arsenal have seen a significant decline in their play and results – only one win in the last five rounds in the Premier League. They have not been able to fully express themselves in attack, and excessive caution often leads to a loss of points. Nottingham Forest are having one of their best seasons in history, successfully playing as number two, clearly taking advantage of the minimal chances at the opponent’s goal thanks to the excellent form of Chris Wood. We do not think that the hosts will easily take three points today in a confrontation with an opponent who has gained excellent momentum.
Our prediction is a Nottingham Forest win with an Asian handicap (+1.5) at odds of 1.77
Bet on total
Nottingham Forest are relying on defence, especially in away games. Don't expect the visitors to take unnecessary risks today. Arsenal have also taught their fans to play cautious football this season, where the result often comes first. It highly likely that we won't see more than two goals scored at the Emirates.
The second bet is total under 2.5 goals with odds of 2.04
Bet on the first half
Both teams are not used to forcing events on the field and taking unjustified risks right away. Thus, in three of the five previous matches of the "foresters" in the first half there was a draw, which we do not exclude today.
Forecast - draw in the first half with odds of 2.50
