Manchester City go in search of a seventh consecutive win in all competitions, hosting relegation-threatened Nottingham Forest. BBC Sport examines some of the key themes before Wednesday's match (19:30 GMT). Manchester City were without their top scorer for the visit to Leeds – the city where the Norwegian was born – but nonetheless recorded another important victory to keep the pressure on leaders Arsenal. City have won 14 of the 18 top-flight fixtures Haaland has missed since arriving in 2022, losing only twice. Overall, he has been directly involved in 18 Premier League goals this season, scoring 14 and assisting four more.
