Nottingham Forest v Manchester City, Everton v Leeds and more ... (The Guardian)

It's an important day at the top and bottom of the Premier League. Get the latest news with Barry Glendenning.

Elsewhere, Brentford host out-of-sorts Crystal Palace, strugglers Bournemouth travel to Wolves looking for their first win in eight league excursions and two of this season’s surprise packages meet at the Amex Stadium, where Brighton take on Fulham. It was a big result for Sabri Lamouchi’s side, who move five points clear of the relegation zone, albeit having played two games more than each of the only four teams below them in the table. The offer comes with a promise to load no debt on the club and to redevelop the club’s infrastructure. In the second minute of added time, the Italian international fired a long-range effort off the cross-bar, only to see it bounce down and ricochet over the line off the beaten Emi Martinez’s head. Championship: A couple of early goals in the second tier’s three o’clock kick-offs. Premier League: With almost half an hour gone, the wait for a top flight goal goes on as far as our three o’clock kick-offs are concerned.

Nottingham Forest vs. Man City live score, updates, highlights and ... (Sporting News AU)

Manchester City claimed a huge win away to Premier League title rivals Arsenal in midweek. Can Pep Guardiola's men build on that result in another game on ...

The crowd at the City Ground are close to the pitch and Pep Guardiola's squad are warming up at the end of the ground where the away fans are stationed. 2 hours from kickoff: Hello and welcome to the Sporting News' live coverage of Nottingham Forest vs. Foden boots it over everyone, Aymeric Laporte is wrestled to the ground for the second setpiece in a row and the City players are furious. I love challenges and I try to help the team as much as possible in the games we have won. The likes of Brennan Johnson and Morgan Gibbs-White will certainly have their eye on that area of the field. 5 mins from kickoff: Steve Cooper is out in the dugout, taking a rapturous ovation from the Forest faithful. The Wales international gets into the City box but Laporte and Kyle Walker are across to snuff out the danger. The exploits of Joe Worrall, Serge Aurier and their colleagues at the back is really firing up the home crowd. Pep Guardiola would have liked his players to test Keylor Navas a little more, but faced with a well-manned and disciplined Forest defence, they seldom allowed their tempo to drop in possession - something that has been feature of the champions' more listless performances this term. Worrall pushed the limit with his lunging tackle on Grealish to earn a booking and it would not have been unfair to see City run out 3-0 or 4-0 winners. Phil Foden comes in off the right and lets rip with a shot that Keylor Navas can't hold. Foden was restored to Pep Guardiola’s starting lineup and to the fore during the opening stages.

Kyle Walker has said it is 'unacceptable' that Manchester City have let their Premier League lead slip following their draw against Nottingham Forest.

Arsenal back on top as Man City are held to EPL draw (South Coast Register)

In a Premier League title race that keeps producing twists, the pendulum has swung back Arsenal's way again...

Instead, it was Southampton's set-piece specialist James Ward-Prowse who scored the only goal at Stamford Bridge with a free kick just before halftime. Even the normally prolific Erling Haaland was guilty of a glaring miss. The result comes on the heels of three straight league draws and a 1-0 loss to Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League for Potter's side. Chelsea defender Cesar Azpilicueta also sustained a head injury after taking a kick in the face in the second half and was taken off on a stretcher. That put Arsenal back atop the league standings, two points above City and with a game in hand after Pep Guardiola's side went ahead on goal difference on Wednesday following what was seen as a key 3-1 win over the Gunners. Arsenal came from behind twice before scoring two goals in injury time to beat Aston Villa 4-2 in the early kickoff on Saturday and halt a three-game winless streak in the league.

Writing on Twitter after the game, Grealish could not hide his disappointment at failing to come away with three points. A goal looked inevitable, only for Haaland to incredibly smash it over the bar, to the disbelief of the City fans behind the goal. That proved to be a costly miss as the aforementioned Wood punished the big Norwegian with a late equaliser. The visitors should have been further ahead in the second half, with Erling Haaland spurning their best chances, including two in one passage of play.

City star blasts 'unacceptable' result as late Arsenal drama provides ... (Fox Sports)

City star blasts 'unacceptable' result as late Arsenal drama provides major title twist: PL Wrap.

“We missed goals that were one metre to the goalkeeper, not just one, a few. “The first half should already be 2-0 or 3-0, we conceded one shot on target and we dropped points. “We know that’s not acceptable. At this level you have to score and that is why we dropped points,” he said. That is why we didn’t win. Chelsea were booed off at full-time after a result that left them languishing in 10th place, with just two wins in their last 14 games in all competitions and none in their last five. “If the strikers aren’t getting the luck or hitting the target, us as a defensive unit need to hang onto the 1-0 victory and secure the three points. With just minutes left at Villa Park, Mikel Arteta’s side were in danger of slipping up again in their bid to win the title for the first time since 2004. The Gunners, who have a game in hand on the champions, were given a massive boost by their title rivals’ stumble just hours later. Haaland missed another chance moments later and Forest made the champions pay with their first shot on target in the 84th minute. Just three days after surrendering first place with a 3-1 defeat against City, Arsenal bounced back in impressive style to move two points clear of the champions. Arsenal regained pole position in the Premier League title race on Saturday as the Gunners fought back for a thrilling 4-2 victory at Aston Villa, while Manchester City were held to a damaging 1-1 draw at Nottingham Forest.

Arsenal Fans' 'Oil Money' Jibe At Manchester City Has Some Murky ... (Forbes)

Ahead of Arsenal's home game against Brentford the Clock End at the Emirates Stadium unfurled a black banner with white writing. 'Arsenal FC.

But Tebas, like the Arsenal fans, was othering. “You are talking the ethnicity, it's not true. Genuinely I am fascinated to know. “I think there’s something deeply wrong in bringing ethnicity into the conversation. “I think the way he is combining teams because of ethnicity. "I am not at all racist. I have no issues about ethnicity. That’s both ownership and sponsorship.” “This is a behavior that football fans commonly engage in, the latest episode of which was evident during a recent Arsenal game when fans unfurled a banner mocking Manchester City, its owners, and its fans.” “Most of us have been complicit in changes that have taken place in the game over the last thirty years, and no amount of othering can change this fact,” he continued. A lesser discussed aspect of the statement is the combination of the ‘oil money’ slur alongside the words “class and tradition.” Adding in a second Tweet: “For the avoidance of doubt, you can’t be against ‘oil money’ - whatever that’s meant to mean - in some contexts and not the other.

Micah Richards delivers verdict on Man City draw with Nottingham ... (Nottinghamshire Live)

Micah Richards has praised Nottingham Forest for defending 'for their lives' in Saturday's 1-1 draw with Manchester City.

"Then the last one, a man who’s scored 26 league goals, he gets a one on one, he’s just got to caress it in but he goes for power and hits it over. Run it on, the ball goes into him and he’s out of the game, he leaves a massive space here on the wing. "Laporte’s out of position, Rodri in the box doesn’t want to touch him because any touch is a penalty. "First one in the second half from Foden, he’s got so many different options, he could go left, right or even dink but because Haaland’s on his left hand side he’s sort of caught in two minds and he makes the wrong decision. We’re going to show you a heat map here and it’s actually quite entertaining to be honest. Forest picked up a superb late point thanks to Chris Wood's equaliser six minutes from time, in what was their only shot on target.
