Arsenal club captain Martin Odegaard expects a 'difficult test' against Nottingham Forest at the Emirates Stadium this afternoon.
The Gunners last played Forest in the 1-0 FA Cup defeat at The City Ground last term and Mikel Arteta will be hoping his side can inflict revenge by returning to winning ways against Steve Cooper's team. Gabriel Jesus is looking to end a run of six games without a goal after urging his teammates to 'stay calm' heading into the break for the World Cup next month.
Arsenal can return to the top of the Premier League with a win against Forest after Manchester City moved above them following their 1-0 win over Leicester on Saturday. Mohamed Elneny returned to first team training this week after recovering from a muscle injury, with the Egyptian midfielder set to feature in the matchday squad.
