Seeking to preserve their perfect start in the Premier League, reigning champions Manchester City welcome Nottingham Forest to the Etihad Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

While the hosts are sitting pretty at the Premier League summit, the visitors currently sit eighth in the table after picking up seven points from their last four top-flight matches.
Pep Guardiola's men had to come from behind at half time to claim maximum points in the capital, and they were tasked to do the same on Tuesday night when they began the defence of their Champions League crown at home to Red Star Belgrade, eventually conquering by a 3-1 scoreline in their opening Group G fixture.
Osman Bukari surprisingly put Red Star in front with their first shot on target on the stroke of half time, but a dominant Citizens outfit, who in contrast had 37 shots and 76% possession throughout the 90 minutes, turned the game on its head after the break thanks to a brace from Julian Alvarez and a composed finish from last season's Champions League final hero Rodri to help City extend their club record of successive home wins to 19 in all competitions.
Form at the Etihad has been a huge factor behind City's recent success, and not only do they boast a 27-game unbeaten home run in the Champions League – the third-longest run in the competition's history – they have also won all 12 of their Premier League home games in 2023, scoring 35 goals in the process.
