Manchester City will host Nottingham Forest in the upcoming Premier League matchday 29. The Citizens are fighting for the title, trailing leaders Arsenal by just four points (with a game in hand), and dropping points against the underdog could be fatal. Pep Guardiota's side are in excellent form: they have won four of their last five league matches, including significant away victories.
Nottingham Forest are in 17th place and desperately fighting for survival. The team has struggled on the road and is experiencing serious attacking issues – they have failed to score in three of their last four away matches. In their December meeting, City confidently defeated their opponents at home (2-1), and the favorites should look even more convincing at home.
Given the colossal difference in class, the hosts' competitive motivation, and their head-to-head record, there's virtually no doubt Manchester City's ultimate success will be assured. Guardiota's side regularly score at least two goals per match, and the visiting defense is unlikely to be able to contain Haaland and company for 90 minutes.
