What is at stake for Man City and Nottingham Forest?

There is plenty riding on every game for Man City as they, along with Arsenal, remain in contention to win an unprecedented quadruple – Premier League glory has, and always will be, the priority for Pep Guardiola, though

City have won each of their last four league games, including a 1-0 victory at Leeds on Saturday, and they currently sit second in the table, five points behind leaders Arsenal and with a crucial game in hand on the Gunners.

As for Nottingham Forest, they can ill-afford to drop too many more points if they wish to avoid slipping into the relegation zone, with just two points separating the Tricky Trees in 17th from West Ham United in 18th spot.

New head coach Vitor Pereira has suffered back-to-back Premier League defeats since taking the reigns at the City Ground, with a 1-0 home loss to Liverpool followed by last weekend’s 2-1 defeat at Brighton.
