Arsenal moved to within three points of Premier League leaders Manchester City after defeating Nottingham Forest 1-0 at the City Ground on October 18, 2026. Substitute Noni Madueke scored the decisive goal in the second half to secure the Gunners’ sixth league victory in seven matches.
The first half produced few clear chances, with neither team managing a shot on target. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta introduced Madueke at the break in place of Eberechi Eze, and the winger eventually broke the deadlock with a shot that deflected off Daniel Munoz before entering the net.
The defeat extended Nottingham Forest’s difficult home run under head coach Oliver Glasner. Despite recording 14 shots, Forest managed only two on target and failed to score for the fourth consecutive home league match. The club has recorded just one Premier League win this season and is still searching for its first home league victory.
