The heavens opened over Manchester on Friday afternoon…

Pep Guardiola’s team welcome Steve Cooper’s side to the Etihad Stadium for Saturday 23 September’s 15:00 (UK) kick-off.

Man City enter the game as the only team in the division who hold an 100% record in the league so far thanks to victories in our opening five matches.

City have also received a potential boost ahead of the meeting with Forest as Guardiola revealed Jack Grealish could make his return from injury when we lock horns with Cooper’s men.

The England international hasn’t featured since August’s win at Sheffield United, but returned to the training field earlier this week.

He and his colleagues were once more upbeat at the City Football Academy in preparation for what will undoubtedly be a challenging test on Saturday.

Check out the best images from training as City fine-tuned our preparations for the visit of Nottingham Forest this weekend.
