Manchester City fans have backed Pep Guardiola to return to a more orthodox formation by welcoming Nathan Ake back into the starting line-up against Nottingham Forest, while Jack Grealish is tipped to continue his fine form in attack.

City travel to the City Ground knowing that they will end the weekend top of the Premier League should they beat Steve Cooper's side.

The Blues have won their last two games by three goals to one, with Wednesday's win at Arsenal knocking the Gunners off top spot.

Guardiola admitted after that win that his initial tactics for the trip to North London were 'horrible'. The Spaniard altered things at half-time to allow City to get a grip on proceedings, and he is expected to follow suit this afternoon.
