Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal Moneyline Prediction
- Moneyline Pick: Arsenal to win
- Odds: -182 (Tonybet)
On the brink of relegation (17th), Nottingham Forest are unlikely to surprise Arsenal. After all, the Tricky Trees were knocked out of the FA Cup by Wrexham after a 3-3 draw.
The Gunners, on the other hand, haven’t tasted defeat in their last 10 games. They came out victorious in the London Derby against Chelsea (3-2), following the disappointment of a 0-0 draw against Liverpool.
Forest’s most recent victory against Arsenal dates back to 2023, when the Tricky Trees won 1-0.
Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal Player Prop
- Prop Bet: Viktor Gyökeres to score
- Odds: +160 (Tonybet)
Criticised throughout the season for his poor performance in front of the net, Gyökeres finally broke his goalless streak by scoring and assisting against Chelsea.
He can count on Bukayo Saka when it comes to creativity, as Gyökeres’s lack of involvement in the build-up has been compensated for by his teammates.
Against the 17th-placed team, he should have enough space to make the difference inside the penalty box.

- Odds: +200 (Tonybet)
Nottingham Forest haven’t kept a clean sheet in six matches and will now face the best defence in the league. Arsenal have only conceded 14 goals in the Premier League, 20 fewer than their opponents.
With Forest willingly giving up chunks of space, this could be an opportunity for striker Viktor Gyökeres to score. Nobody needs confidence more than him, as he’s been under fire from Arsenal fans for his lack of mobility.
Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal Team News
Nottingham Forest Team News
Most teams wouldn’t have had three managers within a season by January, except for Nottingham Forest. Since his arrival, Sean Dyche has tried to give the side more defensive resilience, with limited success.
The Tricky Trees rely on Igor Jesus up front to score goals, as he often wins ground duels. On the other hand, Jesus has only registered one goal in the Premier League. He’s rarely involved in possession, and Dyche’s system isn’t helping.
Forest defeated West Ham 2-1, a direct opponent. Morgan Gibbs-White stepped up and converted the penalty in the 89th minute. The midfielder is the squad’s best performer in front of the net, having scored five goals in the Premier League.
Chris Wood, Ryan Yates, and John Victor will be sidelined due to injuries. Oleksandr Zinchenko will also miss the match, as he will serve his suspension.
Arsenal Team News
Arsenal are leading the Premier League with a six-point advantage over Manchester City, having defeated Chelsea last week (3-2). Striker Gyökeres finally ended his two-month goal drought on the occasion. The Gunners also welcomed Kai Havertz back after he suffered an injury at the beginning of the season.
Arsenal have dominated the league through a mix of defensive resilience and athletic advantage, counting on duels and set-piece preparation to outsmart their opponents.

The Gunners haven’t lost since a 1-2 defeat against Aston Villa in early December and have only failed to win once since then, in a 0-0 draw against Liverpool. Both teams struggled to create chances due to a mix of inattention and few shots, as most counter-attacks led to imprecise attempts.
Martin Zubimendi has become a key part of the squad since his arrival, providing a mix of midfield control and offensive threat in the penalty box, as he scored Arsenal’s third goal against Chelsea.
Max Dowman, Riccardo Calafiori, Cristhian Mosquera, and Piero Hincapié will be sidelined due to injuries.
