Hello and welcome to live coverage of Nottingham Forest v Arsenal.

Osborn sends in Brereton with an excellent, curling ball over the top. He has time to steady himself and shoot across Ospina, but he can't beat the 'keepers dive.

Nelson cuts in from the left, onto his right foot, and from the edge of the box he sends a low shot just wide of the goal and into the side-netting. Smith had it covered.

The game has calmed down a wee bit, but now Arsenal are dominating the game. Lichaj chests back a cross from Welbeck to his 'keeper.

Iwobi slips in Welbeck's run into the box, the 'keeper runs out and blocks his shot, but Welbeck is flagged offside anyway.

Brereton slaloms through the Arsenal defence and spanks a shot at goal that has Ospina diving to his right to pull off an excellent, strong-wristed stop.

Iwobi tries to bend a shot into the top corner, from distance, and it sails over the bar.

Maitland-Niles hobbles away from a challenge on the edge of the box after some neat play and an attempted through-ball.

Lichaj has a cross blocked on the right, and Arsenal attack down the other wing.

GOAL! Forest 1-1 Arsenal. Mertesacker scores - From a free kick on the left, Walcott lifts the ball into Holding, it hits the post and Mertesacker stabs it home.

City have dropped back to absorb some pressure from Arsenal. Cash fouls Nelson on the left wing, outside the box.

GOAL! Nottingham Forest 1-0 Arsenal. Lichaj scores - Dowell smashes in a shot from a tight angle, straight at Ospina, and Lichaj races to the near post to head it in before the 'keeper can reach it.

Elneny concedes another corner, this time on the right. Osborn is tripped as he takes a short one and tries to force his way into the box. Maitland-Niles is the transgressor.

Clough attacks down the left, jinks into the box and as he reaches for a shot, he is tackled and the ball runs to Cash. He stretches to aim a shot to the far corner, and Ospina tips it around the post.

Nelson sends a pass just behind Walcott, missing his run into the box.

Arsenal build from the back, and Maitland-Niles lifts a long bal to nobody. Forest send it long quickly to Brereton, but he can't chase it down.

Nelson can't reach a pass down the left wing in Forest's half, and they have a throw in to build on.

Wenger is in the stands after he DESTROYED a referee in an EPIC RANT.

Dowell gets two chances to cross, and both of them are repelled.

Forest play patiently, looking for an opening but Arsenal are resisting them well by sitting back until Osborn wins a corner off Nelson on the right wing.

Forest are looking pretty comfortable on the ball. They don't look like the kind of side that's struggling in the Championship.

Iwobi takes a shot from the edge of the box but it's straight at a wall of defenders.
