LONDON, Nov 8 - Manchester City suffered their third consecutive defeat in the Premier League after losing 3-1 to Nottingham Forest at the City Ground on Saturday. The visitors had a mountain to climb after trailing 2-0 by the 18th minute, following goals by defender Jair Cunha and forward Liam Delap. After the break, Rayan Cherki reduced the deficit with an emphatic strike, but Delap restored Forest's two-goal lead in the 73rd minute.
City manager Maresca's men are still awaiting the outcome of a Premier League investigation into financial rule breaches, which could result in a points deduction. Earlier, Arsenal maintained their lead at the top of the table with a 1-0 win over Hull, thanks to a last-minute goal from captain Martin Odegaard. In another match, Leeds secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Tottenham, while Newcastle and Leeds drew 1-1. Manchester United, who now face relegation, will take on Aston Villa in their next game.
