Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal: Enticing 2/1 Bukayo Saka odds up for grabs in Premier League clash ...Middle East

Arsenal travel to the City Ground on Sunday afternoon to face Nottingham Forest, with the Gunners firing on all cylinders, having won nine of their last 10 games in all competitions.

Mikel Arteta's side returned from the international break with a 2-1 win over Leeds United in the Premier League before following it up with a 3-0 victory over Lille in the Champions League in midweek.

Meanwhile, Forest are struggling under new head coach Oliver Glasner, losing 1-0 at home to Coventry City before a 3-1 defeat at Crystal Palace.

Arsenal are the clear favourites at 1.61 (8/13) to win this match, with Forest priced at 5.75 (19/4) and the draw at 3.90 (29/10).

Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal: Can Bukayo Saka build on his Lille heroics?

Much of the story behind Saka's season has been his lack of a clinical edge in front of goal, with four big chances missed across his six Premier League appearances so far, although he has registered at least one shot on target in each of those outings.

However, there is no getting away from the fact that the Gunners' number seven has netted three times in those top-flight matches this term.

Saka remains one of Arsenal's main attacking outlets, so he is likely to start, especially as he only came off the bench shortly after the hour mark in the win over Lille in midweek.

Despite that second-half cameo, the England international scored once and set up another, and he arrives at the City Ground full of confidence.

The 25-year-old winger also has a decent record against Forest in the league, with three goals in six top-flight meetings. As such, Saka to score at 3.00 (2/1) with Bet365 looks a price worth backing.

Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal: Why the second half could bring more goals

Forest's league games have tended to be slow burners, with four of their six matches this season goalless at half-time, while they are the only side yet to score a Premier League goal at home.

Arsenal have also started slowly in the league this term, having led at the break in just one of their six matches, with four draws and one deficit at half-time.

What they do have, however, is the strength to change a game once the substitutes arrive, with their bench contributing 25 goals and assists since the start of last season, the most in the division.

That was on show against Lille, when all three goals came in a seven-minute spell after the hour mark.

Odds for the second half to produce more goals had not been released at the time of writing, so it is worth keeping an eye on the market ahead of kick-off.
