Nottingham Forest take on Arsenal this weekend looking to get back to winning ways after successive defeats in the Premier League.

Oliver Glasner refused to blame Liam Delap for last weekend’s huge miss against Crystal Palace that came with Forest 1-0 up in a game that ultimately ended in a 3-1 defeat.

Delap is likely to keep spearheading the Forest attack this weekend when Arsenal roll into town. He signed for £50 million from Chelsea and did score his maiden goal for the club against Aston Villa last month.

Ahead of this weekend’s game, we’ve looked at the team Glasner can pick against Arsenal to claim a positive result.

Matz Sels is under fire from supporters but should start the game against the Gunners this weekend.

Nikola Milenkovic might not have recovered from bone bruising, and if he doesn’t, Ousmane Diomande, Ola Aina and Murillo should all keep their places in the team.

At wing-back, Neco Williams deserves time to settle on the left, with Daniel Munoz proving a very useful player since arriving as the right-sided wing-back.

We feel the one change to the Forest team this weekend has to come in midfield. Xaver Schlager has been very decent, but the Reds do miss something when Ibrahim Sangare doesn’t start games, and he should return for the visit of the champions.

In the final third, Delap should get the chance to lead the line once again for Forest. Behind him, Dan Ndoye was fantastic at Palace, and ultimately he will keep his place alongside Morgan Gibbs-White when Arsenal come to the City Ground.
