We shift our focus back to the Premier League as Arsenal travel to the City Ground to face Nottingham Forest. In this comprehensive match preview, we build our predicted starting XI and debate exactly who should start for Mikel Arteta on Sunday.
With huge question marks over the fitness of Martin Zubimendi and William Saliba, plus Piero Hincapié and Christos Tzolis sidelined, Arteta is facing some massive selection headaches. We break down the tactical matchups, how we compensate for the missing players, and what we need to do to secure three crucial points on the road.
Off the pitch, we also unpack Arteta's latest press conference and give our unfiltered reaction to the controversial news that the club is set to make 60 staff members redundant. We discuss the optics of these cuts and what it means for the club's structure moving forward.
