The Norwegian striker missed the narrow weekend win over Leeds due to a minor issue, and Pep Guardiola won't want to take any unnecessary risks with his team ahead of a packed fixture schedule.
City should have the luxury of naming an unchanged defence, while they could make a change in midfield after Nico O'Reilly was forced off at Elland Road. The big decision comes in attack, and it would not be a surprise if Haaland were named on the bench in the hope City can win the match without him.
Here is how we think Pep Guardiola's side should line up to face Forest:
