Saturday Premier League stats and tips: Nottingham Forest vs Man City
Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper celebrates at the final whistle
Manchester City are back on top of the Premier League, can they keep a grip on that crown? Planet Sport checks out the team news, stats and best bets for their trip to Nottingham Forest.
This probably isn't the greatest time for Nottingham Forest to face a rampant Manchester City given the state of their defence.
Willy Boly and Scott McKenna both went off against Fulham and will be out of action for a long time, so Felipe and Joe Worrall are likely to step in.
Ryan Yates could return, while Jesse Lingard is still a doubt. Jonjo Shelvey might be given his first start for Forest.
Dean Henderson, Taiwo Awoniyi, Giulian Biancone, Moussa Niakhate, Omar Richards and Cheikhou Kouyate are all still out.
John Stones is still missing for Manchester City with a hamstring injury, as Pep Guardiola might use this as an opportunity to shuffle his pack again.
