Manchester City have won four of their last five Premier League matches against Nottingham Forest (L1), winning 2-1 earlier this season at the City Ground.
Since returning to the Premier League in 2022-23, Nottingham Forest have lost all three of their away Premier League games against Man City without scoring, conceding 11 times. They are winless in eight away top-flight visits (D3 L5) since a 3-0 win in November 1989.
Nottingham Forest’s three Premier League games at the Etihad have been lost by an aggregate score of 11-0. It’s one of three instances a side has failed to score while shipping 10+ goals at a stadium in the competition, along with Birmingham City at Old Trafford (0 goals, 17 conceded) and Bradford City at Old Trafford (0 goals, 10 conceded).
Manchester City have won 16 of their last 19 Premier League home games (D2 L1), at least three more than any other side since April 2025.
39% of Man City’s Premier League wins this season have been by one goal (7/18), beating Newcastle 2-1 and Leeds 1-0 in their last two. It’s their highest proportion of wins by a single goal since 2012-13 (52% - 12/23).
Across his spells at Wolves (10 games) and Nottingham Forest (2), Vítor Pereira remains winless in the Premier League this season (D2 L10). Only two managers have taken charge of more games in a campaign in the competition without winning: Paul Jewell in 2007-08 (24, all with Derby) and Terry Connor in 2011-12 (13, all with Wolves).
Under Pep Guardiola, Manchester City have won 24 of their 26 Premier League games on a Wednesday at the Etihad Stadium (D2), averaging 2.85 points-per-game – the best of any side under a manager at home on a specific day of the week in the competition’s history (10+ games played).
Manchester City’s Pep Guardiola has won 17 of his last 20 Premier League matches against Portuguese managers (D1 L2), including two wins over Nottingham Forest’s Vítor Pereira when he was Wolves boss in May 2025 (1-0) and August 2025 (4-0).
Only Chris Wood (37) has scored more Premier League goals for Nottingham Forest than Morgan Gibbs-White (24, level with Bryan Roy). Gibbs-White’s seven goals this season are his joint-most in a Premier League campaign (also 7 in 2024-25).
Nico O’Reilly has scored three goals in Manchester City’s last two Premier League home games, while a goal in this game would make him only the second player to score in three successive home appearances in the competition for the club while aged 20 or younger after Phil Foden in July 2020.
