Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal best football tips for today

Nottingham Forest hosts Arsenal at the City Ground in a game from the third round of the FA Cup. Are you ready to take a look at this in our best football tips for today?

Nottingham Forest are having a very difficult season so far. Because of the team’s poor results the club decided to sack the manager Chris Hughton and replace him with Steve Cooper. The former European champions lost their last two matches in the Championship, though – right now they are 9th in the standings with 34 points, but still having a realistic chance to fight for promotion.

In their last Championship game Forest faced Huddersfield Town at home, but conceded a 0-1 defeat at the City Ground.

Arsenal are the most successful club in the history of the FA Cup, so they are always approaching this competition with some high confidence. Last season the Gunners didn’t reach the final, but now they will try to win it for a second time under the management of Mikel Arteta.

In terms of current shape things are going well for Arsenal. The club was enjoying a run of five consecutive wins before the 1-2 defeat against Manchester City on January 1. Arteta’s team played very well against the Cityzens, too, but Gabriel’s red card in the second half made things more difficult for them. They also conceded a goal in the last few minutes of the game.

The manager Mikel Arteta could make some changes compared to his line-up against Man City. Players like Nicolas Pepe, Mohamed Elneny, Rob Holding and Emile Smith-Rowe could return in the starting eleven. Meanwhile Callum Chambers remains sidelined with an injury.

That’s the best football tips for today for the FA Cup game between Nottingham Forest and Arsenal at the City Ground. Can the hosts cause an upset here? We should see.
