Big guns return for both! Forest and Man City name starting XIs | OneFootball

The starting line-ups are in from the City Ground for the first fixture of the Premier League weekend as Nottingham Forest take on Manchester City.

With no fresh injury concerns from their FA Cup win on Monday night, Forest are as close to full strength for the clash as Nuno Espírito Santo could hope for as the big names return to the side.

After also missing FA Cup action, Nico González, and Abdukodir Khusanov all return to the starting XI for Pep Guardiola, while Phil Foden retains his place.

Nottingham Forest: Sels; Aina, Milenković, Murillo, Williams; Anderson, Domínguez; Elanga, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi; Wood.

Manchester City: Ederson; Nunes, Khusanov, Dias, Gvardiol; González, Silva; Savinho, Foden, Doku; Haaland.

Forest currently lead City by a point in third place prior to kick-off.
