Follow all the action from Etihad Stadium
Follow live coverage as Manchester City face Nottingham Forest today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.
The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will be chasing Pep Guardiola's side, but just as fascinating will be the race for Champions League places, with more teams than ever before having designs on top-four finishes. Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.
Meanwhile, it's Southampton, Leicester City and Ipswich Town who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:

Manchester City vs Nottingham Forest
Currently outside of the Champions League picture let alone the Premier League title race, Manchester City have a seven-game winless run to end as they clash with Nottingham Forest at the Etihad this evening. Pep Guardiola's side couldn’t stop Liverpool’s momentum on Sunday, losing 2-0 to the runaway leaders. They have now fallen 11 points behind the Reds in the table. In their last time out, the Tricky Trees edged out Ipswich Town 1-0 to get back to winning ways. Looking to restart their fine run of form from the end of November, they’ll be sure to try and add to City’s recent misery. Sunday’s was the sixth defeat in 33 days for the despairing Guardiola’s squad. Will we see the seventh tonight, or can the fifth-placed Citizens turn it around against their sixth-placed visitors?
