Confirmed Arsenal team to face Nottingham Forest – Madueke and Eze start | OneFootball

Arsenal takes on Nottingham Forest in their first game after the international break, and this is the team that Mikel Arteta has selected.

Arsenal team v Forest

After two wins from two, the Gunners were beaten by Liverpool at Anfield in their last league game, so they have to win this match.

Over the break, Forest sacked Nuno Espirito Santo and replaced him with Ange Postecoglou and could enjoy a new manager bounce in this game.

Their fans will hope that is the case, but the odds are not good against an Arsenal team that does not want to lose too much ground on Liverpool at the start of the season.

Arsenal has lost none of its last four matches against Forest, winning three of those games.

At home, the Gunners have won their last six matches against Forest, and their last home loss to the team from Nottinghamshire came in 1989.

Postecoglou spent two seasons on the bench of Tottenham before he was sacked earlier in the year, but he never won against Arsenal and lost his final three games against the Gunners.

Arsenal has more depth now, so their fans believe any team they put out in the fixture should bring home all the points.

Forest will need some time to adjust and play how Postecoglou wants them to, and that could make it easier for Arsenal to secure victory in this fixture.
