Arsenal would not have expected to head into a home game against Nottingham Forest in November behind their visitors in the table. Mikel Arteta's men need a win to reignite their title hopes.

Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard is today in line to make his first appearance at the Emirates Stadium since August with the visit of Nottingham Forest. The Gunners captain injured his ankle playing for Norway at the start of September and has just returned to action.

Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta must wait to see if winger Bukayo Saka will be fit to face Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
