After suffering only their second defeat of the season on Thursday in the Europa League against PSV, Arsenal will have their sights set on a return to winning ways when they welcome Nottingham Forest to the Emirates Stadium in the Premier League on Sunday. Mikel Arteta's side were far below their best as they slumped to a 2-0 defeat in Holland on Thursday ending their 100% winning start to the Europa League.
The loss to Ruud van Nistelrooy's side came after the Gunners drew with Southampton in the Premier League last Sunday with Granit Xhaka's early strike being cancelled out by Stuart Armstrong just past the hour mark.
Arsenal have been fast starters in the Premier League this season, scoring first in nine of their 11 Premier League games but have faced criticism for their recent second half performances with many crucial first-team players featuring in both league and European action possibly suffering from fatigue.
