Arsenal have enjoyed a superb start to their season, winning 13 of their first 14 matches in the Premier League before slipping to a disappointing draw against Southampton last weekend and a 2-0 defeat away at PSV in the Europa League.
However, they remain top of the Premier League table, but will be hoping that they can return to their best with a fixture which appears favourable on paper. Nottingham Forest travel to the Emirates as the bottom club in the table, but will be buoyed by their win against Liverpool at the City Ground last week.
Steve Cooper's side have only lost one of their last four matches and will be hoping that their encouraging recent performances continue in this tricky assignment.
