Forest get the lead against Arsenal, who look abject after losing their title dreams to Man City with a dismal defeat at home last week to Brighton. Forest show no mercy.

Arsenal needed to beat Nottingham Forest to keep any distant glimmer of their title dream alive. Instead, they give Forest the lead from a counter-attack.

Awoniyi is the goal scorer, not even 20 minutes into the game. He's played in on the right of the box, leaving him the simple job of slotting past Ramsdale into empty net.

If Forest can hold on to their lead they'll be safely out of the relegation zone and will also hand City the title. 

The Cityzens have a game in hand on second place Arsenal, and will be guaranteed the league if Arsenal lose here, or if City beat Chelsea on Sunday.
