Is Manchester United v Nottingham Forest on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Premier League fixture

Date:

Manchester United will hope to bounce back from their first defeat under Ruben Amorim as Nottingham Forest come to Old Trafford.

After a vibrant performance against Everton on Sunday, Amorim’s side failed to fire against Arsenal in midweek and suffered a 2-0 loss.

A victory here would lift them above their opponents, though, as Manchester United look to climb the table under their new manager.

Nottingham Forest’s charge for a European qualification place has been somewhat checked by a run of three defeats in four games amid a tough run of fixtures, though Nuno Espirito Santo’s team remain firmly in the mix.

Here’s everything you need to know.
