15:45 CET – Hello, and welcome to our live coverage of today’s featured match – the Premier League clash between Nottingham Forest and Manchester City from 18:30 CET.
If you’re just tuning in for the day, the Premier League action is already underway, with Leeds edging Spurs 1-0 in the early game and league leaders Arsenal coming up at 16:00 CET, at home to Hull City, as well as Fulham vs Newcastle.
Our attention, however, will be on Nottingham’s City Ground, with troubled Forest looking for a first win in six matches this evening against Enzo Maresca’s Man City.
City, themselves, are coming off a shock home loss to Brighton last weekend, and while they did win midweek in the Champions League, they’ll still be hurting after Arsenal took a three-point lead in the standings.

One of the key narratives today will be the return to Nottingham of Elliot Anderson, who moved from Forest to City in the summer for a whopping €135 million, which briefly made the Englishman the most expensive British player in history.
Anderson has become a central figure for Maresca’s side in the post-Pep Guardiola era, and he’ll be looking to get his new club back on track in the league today.
On the other side of things, Forest’s manager Oliver Glasner could hardly be under more pressure. With a trigger-happy owner peering over his shoulder, a damaging loss today could spell the end of the road for the Austrian, who only joined the club in July.
