Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool Premier League Prediction Match Details
Tuesday night Premier League action will end with an entertaining match at the City Ground with Nottingham Forest set to welcome Liverpool in the race for the title crown. Can Forest stint Arne Slot men for the second time this season, or will the Reds get revenge?
Nottingham Forest Preview & Form
Nottingham Forest have continued to remain the surprise package this season as they have defied each of their opponents in the last seven games, and they find themselves in the battle for the Premier League title crown for the first time in a long period of time. Nuno Santos’s men are currently on an impressive six-match winning streak in the league, with their last league match ending in a comfortable 3-0 victory over Wolverhampton. The Tricky Trees’ defense has been impressive as they have kept clean sheets in each of their last five successive matches. Over the weekend, Nuno Espirito Santo’s men comfortably beat Luton Town 2-0 at the City Ground in the FA Cup third round thanks to goals from Ryan Yates and Ramon Sosa. Their current six straight league wins propelled them into a title race as they sit third in the league standings with 40 points, the same points as second place Arsenal and only six behind leader Liverpool. They will feel confident in this game, having remained the only side to have beaten Liverpool in the Premier League this season.
On their home soil, Nuno Santos’s men have won each of their last three league matches, with the most recent being a narrow 1-0 victory over struggling Tottenham. They have only suffered one defeat in their last seven matches at the City Ground, where they won the other six games.
Liverpool Preview & Form
Liverpool are currently enjoying an incredible run of form under Arne Slot this season, but the Reds are currently having some run of form, and their fans will be hoping they can now return to winning ways. In their last league matches, Arne Slot’s men played a 2-2 draw against Manchester United at the Anfield Stadium and then followed it up with a 1-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur in the first leg of their EFL Cup semi-final last week. They then ended the winless run by hammering League Two side Accrington by 4-0 over the weekend in the FA Cup third round ties. Currently, they remain at the top of the summit with 46 points, six points behind second and third but have a game in hand.
In their last away game at the Carabao Cup against Tottenham, Arne Slot’s men experienced their first defeat across all competitions. However, they are yet to taste defeat in the Premier League this season. Their last league away game saw them dispatch West Ham United 5-0 at the London Stadium. Liverpool’s attacking frontline has scored a whopping 20 goals in the last five league away games.
