Arsenal looking to avoid Forest upset

Nottingham Forest managed a famous 4-2 win over Arsenal at the City Ground when these two teams met in the third round of the FA Cup four years ago but a repeat result looks unlikely on Sunday.

The Gunners saw their midweek EFL Cup semi-final first leg against Liverpool postponed, with that tie now set to take place on Thursday. Had that game gone ahead boss Mikel Arteta would have probably made sweeping changes for this fixture but he could now decide the best course of action will be to just make a few alterations, as they then have a three-day break until that rearranged game against the Anfield outfit takes place.

Arsenal arrive in form

The visitors saw a five-game winning run ended by Manchester City in their last Premier League outing but they were unlucky not to get something out of that game, despite being reduced to 10-men just before the hour mark.

The Gunners have impressed in their cup ties against lower league opponents this term, beating West Brom, Wimbledon and Sunderland convincingly in the EFL Cup, and should be too strong for Forest even if Arteta does decide to rotate.

The hosts will view the Championship as their priority and as such boss Steve Cooper may make a few changes to his own starting XI, although major changes are unlikely as Forest aren’t in action again until next weekend.

The hosts have lost their last two games and have failed to score in each of those games. As such, the Gunners may well be able to keep a clean sheet and a 3-0 win for the visitors looks to have a chance as Arsenal are averaging 3 goals per-game over their last four away from home.

阿森纳想要避免森林的不安

四年前足总杯第三轮比赛中，诺丁汉森林队在曼城球场4-2大胜阿森纳，但周日的比赛不太可能再出现这样的结果。

枪手的第二外语杯半决赛首回合对阵利物浦的比赛被推迟，比赛将在周四举行。有游戏了之前的老板米克尔阿尔特塔可能会彻底改变了这个夹具但现在他可以决定最佳的行动将会做一些改变,然后他们有一个三天的休息之前,重新安排对安菲尔德的比赛服装。

阿森纳状态良好

客队在上一场英超比赛中看到了被曼城终结的五连胜，但他们很不幸没有从那场比赛中有所收获，尽管他们在一小时前被减少到10人。

枪手在本赛季对阵低级联赛对手的比赛中给人留下了深刻的印象，在EFL杯中击败了西布罗姆、温布尔登和桑德兰，即使阿尔特塔决定轮换，对森林队来说，他们也太强大了。

东道主将把总冠军视为他们的首要任务，因此主教练史蒂夫·库珀可能会对自己的首发阵容做一些调整，尽管大的变化不太可能，因为森林队要到下周末才会再次上场。

东道主已经输掉了最近两场比赛，而且在每一场比赛中都没有进球。因此，枪手很有可能保持一场不失球，3-0的胜利给客队带来了机会，因为阿森纳在过去的四场客场比赛中场均打进3球。
