Nottingham Forest will host Manchester City in the Premier League at the weekend, and they will look to get their season back on track with a positive result at home. The Tricky Trees have been quite inconsistent in recent weeks, and they have picked up just one win from the last four matches in all competitions.
Meanwhile, Manchester City are coming into this game on the back of two consecutive victories after a disappointing run of form. They will look to build on it and put together a winning run. Manchester City have won their last three matches against Nottingham Forest, and they have kept a clean sheet in five of their last seven matches against the Tricky Trees.
The Premier League champions are the favourites heading into this game, and they should be able to grind out a positive result here. A double chance on the away side would be ideal.
