- Forest team confirmed for Man City clash
- Nuno makes six changes from Ipswich tie
- Same starting XI as visit of Arsenal
Nuno Espírito Santo has made six changes to the Nottingham Forest starting XI for this afternoon’s Premier League clash with Manchester City.
The Reds Head Coach has reverted back to the side that secured a point against Arsenal in Forest’s last home Premier League fixture.
Nuno shuffled his pack for the Emirates FA Cup fifth round match against Ipswich Town last week, making six changes for the tie.
Matz Sels continues in goal, fresh from his nomination for the Premier League Save of the Month on Thursday afternoon.
Ola Aina and Neco Williams start the match in the full-back berths, with Murillo and Nikola Milenković starting in the middle of the defence.
Elliot Anderson and Nicolás Domínguez return in midfield, with Morgan Gibbs-White skippering the Reds further upfield.
The width is provided by Callum Hudson-Odoi and Anthony Elanga, with top goalscorer Chris Wood leading the Forest attack.
City meanwhile have made nine changes to their side from that which knocked Plymouth Argyle out of the FA Cup last weekend.
Bernardo Silva and Phil Foden start in the only two changes from their win against Tottenham Hotspur.
