Nottingham Forest somehow managed to record a set of unbeaten games at home this season. They lost just once in the past 10 home outings across competitions. Seven of those 10 fixtures were from the Premier League.

On the other side, City will be having the desperation of conceding two defeats in a row on the road. It deserves to mention that they lost to Tottenham and United in those two fixtures.

In that case, we are expecting a victory for Manchester City on Saturday. We don’t expect a one-sided affair like the reverse fixture.
