This could be his 200th Premier League appearance, at least 42 more than any other Arsenal player since he joined in 2016. Match officials Simon Hooper will officiate his first-ever Arsenal game this weekend - in contrast, it’ll be the 19th time he has overseen a Forest match, the last of which was their opening-day defeat to Newcastle United. This season has seen him take charge of eight Premier League fixtures, and in that time he has brandished 25 yellow cards - seven of which came in last weekend’s Everton v Crystal Palace game - but no reds, and awarded just one penalty.

However, during the Reds’ 23-season top-flight exile we did meet four times in cup competitions, although just once on our own patch. That came in September 2019 when we ran out 5-0 victors in the League Cup on a night that saw Gabriel Martinelli bag his first Gunners goals, with Rob Holding, Joe Willock and Reiss Nelson also netting. We also triumphed 4-0 in the same competition at the City Ground three years earlier when Granit Xhaka was among the scorers, but our two FA Cup meetings saw us defeated 4-2 in 2017/18, while Lewis Grabban’s goal knocked us out of the competition at the third round stage last season.

We haven’t kept a clean sheet in any of our last 10 Premier League home games, though we have won the last eight in a row. In English top-flight history, only one side has ever won nine consecutive home games while conceding each time - Aston Villa back in 1888/89.

Arsenal vs Nottingham Forest: Live stream, TV channel, team news and kick-off time for Premier League gameARSENAL host Nottingham Forest at the Emirates on Sunday as the leaders look to pile the misery on the Premier League's bottom side.

The security of Remo Freuler and Cheikou Kouyate allows Ryan Yates to make determined forward runs from midfield, while Jesse Lingard and Morgan Gibbs-White have proven dangerous on the break, with the latter’s set-pieces responsible for three goals so far this season. What the managers say Arteta: "There’s no time to feel sorry for ourselves. We have to react. On Sunday, we have a really important game, and then we’ll look at Zurich. “We have to be much better than we were [against PSV]. We knew what they were trying to do and the way we executed certain actions, the way we competed, it wasn’t good enough.
With all the comings and goings, it was hardly a surprise that Forest looked disjointed in their early fixtures, and claimed just one win from their opening eight games - a 1-0 victory in their first home match against West Ham United. However, there have been recent signs that the Welshman now has a better idea of his best XI, with draws against Aston Villa and Brighton & Hove Albion sandwiched between a defeat at Wolves, before Liverpool came to town last Saturday. Taiwo Awoniyi struck the only goal of the game to reignite his side's season, and while they’re heading to north London bottom of the table hopes are high that things are on the way up for newly-promoted outfit.

Granit Xhaka has scored three Premier League goals this season, as many as he had in his previous three campaigns combined, while only in 2018/19 has he ever scored more (4).

What to look out for Michael Cox, writing in the official matchday programme: Cooper has turned around Forest’s fortunes by emphasising the importance of deep defending and playing on the break. There’s also been a significant formation change from 3-4-1-2 to 4-3-3, allowing the opposition more possession but less time in dangerous areas. Cooper is still relying primarily on centre-backs who played for him last season in the Championship. Scott McKenna has been the only outfield ever-present, and recently has been playing alongside the experienced Steve Cook. Neco Williams started the season in good form at right wing-back, but switched to the left to accommodate Serge Aurier.
