Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Preview

While the point earned may not have been the target of Arsene Wenger at the Emirates on Wednesday evening, the Frenchman must’ve been happy with the fight shown by his team as they drew 2-2 against Chelsea. Jack Wilshere continued his excellent form in the Arsenal midfield when he crashed in the opening goal off the post, but Eden Hazard converted from the penalty spot to level the game at 1-1. Marcos Alonso appeared to have won the game for Chelsea when he put the Blues ahead in the 84th minute, but Hector Bellerin’s stoppage time effort ensured Arsenal salvaged a late point. It means Wenger’s men go into the FA Cup break five points behind Liverpool in 4th and two points below Tottenham, as they look to make an instant return to Champions League football at the first time of asking. Still involved in four competitions this season, expect a rotated Arsenal lineup here, particularly with the fact they face Chelsea in the EFL Cup semi-finals on Wednesday evening - a competition Wenger is still yet to win as Arsenal boss. Currently unbeaten in nine games, the shine of that statistic is slightly dampened by the fact they have drawn five of those games, though they will feel confident of victory here as they look to win a fourth FA Cup in five seasons.
