After an impressive comeback at the weekend, Arsenal will look to continue their winning ways in midweek with a cup tie against Nottingham Forest.
This could be a fixture in which a lot of youngsters get the chance to impress Unai Emery.
Arsenal cannot be too complacent though and must balance the team selection with youngsters and experience, as the last time these two sides met Forest came out on top in what was an embarrassing result for for the club.
A player that has been in good form for Forest so far this season is Lewis Grabban.
The ex-Bournemouth striker signed for Forest last season and he has notched up 20 league goals for them so far. He has four to his name this season and is among the Champoinship’s top scorers.
As well as scoring four goals so far in the league this season, Grabban has found the back of the net twice in the Carabao Cup and will be hoping to add to this on Tuesday night.
Grabban is a tall, physical striker and will look to hold up play for his teammates, using his strength to his advantage. It will be interesting to see how Arsenal manage to deal with this because Rob Holding could start in defence and this would be a good test for him in his first game back from injury.
Arsenal will need to guard from complacency in this fixture as Forest are a good side who have aspirations to return to the Premier League.
A good cup run would go down well with a lot of Arsenal fans and it could be an opportunity for Emery to win his first trophy at the club.
Emery may not want to make too many changes though as victory against Forest would keep the momentum going for the big match against Manchester United next Monday.
