Nottingham Forest Vs Manchester City Live Score, Premier League 2025-26: Tricky Trees Look To Disrupt Cityzens’ Momentum

Forest work a smart set-piece after Igor Jesus holds it up well, Murillo and Milenkovic combine in the air, and sustained pressure down the right ends with Savona’s teasing cross diverted behind for a corner as the Tricky Trees keep City pinned back.

Anderson flashes a dangerous ball into the box but Gvardiol clears, as Forest continue to threaten on the break with wide pace and Gibbs-White’s late surges into the area.

Early drama at the City Ground as VAR checks a potential penalty after Cherki goes down following a clever lob from the left, but the on-field call stands and play continues.

The first half gets underway at the City Ground as Nottingham Forest and Manchester City kick off, with the Tricky Trees looking to start on the front foot against the Cityzens’ early pressure.
