There are two Premier League matches kicking off at 14:00 BST.

Brighton and Hove Albion take on Manchester City at the Amex Stadium, while Nottingham Forest and West Ham United meet at the City Ground.

TEAM NEWS

Pep Guardiola makes four changes from the team that lost to Tottenham Hotspur last weekend.

Matheus Nunes, Abdukodir Khusanov, Rodri and Bernardo Silva come in for Rico Lewis, Ruben Dias, Nico Gonzalez and Rayan Cherki, who is missing from the matchday squad.

Phil Foden is also absent.

James Trafford keeps his place in goal, while Rayan Ait-Nouri is fit enough to start after coming off injured in Gameweek 2.

Brighton make three alterations to their starting XI.

The hosts bring in Joel Veltman, Jack Hinshelwood and Diego Gomez.

Mats Wieffer, who is not in the squad, Yasin Ayari and Matt O’Riley make way.

Georginio Rutter returns from injury to make the bench.

It’s much more straightforward team news from Nottingham Forest, who are unchanged.

As for opponents West Ham, Graham Potter has made three changes to the side that lost 5-1 to Chelsea.

Out go Jean-Clair Todibo, Nayef Aguerd and Aaron Wan-Bissaka and in come Kyle Walker-Peters, Konstantinos Mavropanos and Mateus Fernandes, who makes his debut.

Manchester City XI: Trafford, Nunes, Khusanov, Stones, Ait-Nouri, Rodri, Bernardo, Reijnders, Bobb, Marmoush, Haaland

Subs: Ederson, Dias, Ake, Doku, Nico, Gundogan, Akanji, O’Reilly, Lewis

Nottingham Forest XI: Sels, Aina, Milenkovic, Murillo, Williams, Sangare, Anderson, Ndoye, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi, Wood

Subs: Gunn, Morato, Luiz, Kalimuendo, Jesus, Hutchinson, Yates, McAtee, Boly

Petrovic... The player who played away to Spurs, only one with a CS for me. Not Yoro home to Burnley, not Milenkovic home to WH and not VDV home to Bournemouth.

  I did say when all the stats came out that doesn’t mean they will repeat this season, plus extra pressure on them to get them knowing the points implication.
  
  Glad I avoided them
