Arsenal visit Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Saturday night. Preview includes team news, predicted lineups, recent form, score prediction and more.

Arsenal will hope to keep the Premier League title race alive for another day when they visit Nottingham Forest on Saturday night.

The home side have steered away from the relegation scrap in recent weeks after picking up results against Southampton and Chelsea, though with only 34 points their safety isn't totally assured just yet.

The Gunners led the title battle for much of the season but a late dip in form has seen them fall off Manchester City's relentless pace. Only a win will do to keep Arsenal's extremely faint hopes alive.

Here's what you need to know before the fixture.

How to watch Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal on TV and live stream

Nottingham Forest team news

Forest manager Steve Cooper remains without a considerable amount of players as he plots Premier League survival in the last two games.

The likes of Neco Williams, Chris Wood, Dean Henderson and Emmanuel Dennis are all sidelined by injury, but the starting XI is relatively settled and has delivered four points in the last two games.

Striker Taiwo Awoniyi has scored four goals in those fixtures against Southampton and Chelsea and will be tasked with finding the strikes that could secure Forest's before the final weekend.

Nottingham Forest predicted lineup vs Arsenal

Nottingham Forest predicted lineup (4-3-2-1): Navas; Aurier, Felipe, Niahkate, Lodi; Yates, Mangala, Danilo; Johnson, Gibbs-White; Awoniyi.

Arsenal team news

Gunners boss Mikel Arteta will no doubt want an improvement from his players after their title hopes were all but ended by a 3-0 home defeat to Brighton.

Leandro Trossard - who hit the woodwork and was responsible for his former side's second goal last time out - could replace the injured Gabriel Martinelli on the left, while Thomas Partey may reclaim his starting XI place at Jorginho's expense.

The back line has looked particularly shaky recently but with William Saliba, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Takehiro Tomiyasu all ruled out, there are few alternatives for Arteta to turn to.

Arsenal predicted lineup vs Nottingham Forest

Arsenal predicted lineup (4-3-3): Ramsdale; White, Kiwior, Magalhaes, Tierney; Odegaard, Partey, Xhaka; Saka, Jesus, Trossard.

Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal score prediction

Arsenal will visit a City Ground no doubt rocking at the prospect of Forest retaining their Premier League status. It's been a dramatic season under manager Cooper but a late push looks to have placed them safely above the bottom three - for now.

The Gunners have been the league's best side away from home this season, picking up 39 points on their travels and failing to win only six of those 18 games so far. Their strength away from the Emirates was shown recently when they won at Newcastle.

Arsenal will be keen to ensure they don't hand City the title with a defeat of their own. They should get three points on Saturday night, but disappointment will almost certainly arrive on Sunday when City face Chelsea.

Prediction: Nottingham Forest 1-2 Arsenal
