The two times Nottingham Forest came up against the top-six sides, they failed to get on the scoreboard as well as losing both ties 2-0 and 6-0 to Tottenham and Manchester City respectively.
Liverpool may have struggled at the back in recent games but they silenced a massively good goalscoring side Man City last weekend when they won the tie 1-0 at Anfield. Nottingham are unlikely to get on the scoreboard against the Reds.
Nottingham Forest lost 6-0 away to Manchester City. They lost 2-0 to a Tottenham side that doesn’t score many goals per game. Coming up against Liverpool, who thrashed Rangers 7-1 last week and 9-0 against Bournemouth earlier on this season, is poised to become yet another matchday where they could ship in four+ goals before the final whistle.
The former Benfica forward is finding his feet slowly at Anfield. He scored against Arsenal earlier this month and scored against Rangers in the Champions League. He came off the bench against Manchester City but didn’t have enough time to make a statement. He’s expected to start against Nottingham Forest and is increasingly likely to score at least a goal as he’s keen on catching up with the league’s top goalscorers Mitrovic, Harry Kane and Erling Haaland.
Jurgen Klopp said after the defeat at Arsenal that Liverpool are out of the Premier League title race after only matchweek 10. The Reds pulled off an unexpected win over Man City last weekend and a win over Nottingham this weekend would take them closer to the top-four at least.
Liverpool have managed 13 points from their opening 9 league matches and are 14 points behind 1st placed Arsenal, who have played a game more.
Nottingham Forest are at the bottom of the Premier League table with only 5 points from 10 matches. They are increasingly likely to lose the game to Liverpool this weekend.
