Manchester City may not be top of the table for Christmas, but they are in hot pursuit of their Premier League title challengers Arsenal heading into the second half of the campaign.

Mikel Arteta's lead the way at the head of the Premier League with 39 points so far, two clear of Pep Guardiola's Man City, who will next play Sean Dyche's side, live on TNT Sports and discovery+.

After a tough start to the season for Nottingham Forest, their form has certainly got better under Dyche, but consistency remains difficult as they look to get clear from the bottom three sides and avoid a relegation fight.

Earlier in the campaign, they went nine Premier League matches without picking up a victory with the managerial merry-go-round in full swing, but Dyche has seemingly steadied the ship following Ange Postecoglou's winless stint, while Omari Hutchinson believes the team is on the right track.

One thing is for sure, they love entertaining one of the big boys at City Ground, having beaten Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 in their last home match - their sixth win in nine games in all competitions - to move five points clear of the drop zone.

A narrow 1-0 defeat to Fulham on the Monday before Christmas may have dampened their festive spirit, but Forest will be hoping to see out the year with a bang against Guardiola's side.

This fixture no doubt poses a threat to title hopefuls City, but will they falter and hand Arsenal the advantage, or can they ramp up the pressure on Mikel Arteta's side?
