Forest are now safe from relegation after holding onto a slim win to claim crucial points.
Manchester City are the Premier League champions after Arsenal fell to a 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
Taiwo Awoniyi’s first-half goal ensured Forest retained their league status and handed City – who are in action against Chelsea tomorrow - the title.
Meanwhile, Forest claimed the lead in the 19th minute after a counter-attack. Martin Odegaard gave the ball away to Morgan Gibbs-White, who started a fast counter-attack that brought the breakthrough.
Although Gabriel got to the overhit cross first with a slide tackle, the ball deflected off Awoniyi and into the net.
