Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool Prediction Match Details
Relegation-threatened Nottingham Forest will host Carabao winner Liverpool at the City Ground in round 27 of the Premier League fixtures.
Nottingham Forest Preview & Form
Nottingham Forest will enter the match following a disappointing 1-0 loss at home to Manchester United in the FA Cup knockout stage during the middle of the week.
Prior to their FA Cup defeats, Nottingham Forest suffered their fourth defeat in six league games at home to Aston Villa, with the result ending in a 4-2 defeat, keeping Forest in 16th place with 24 points and just four points separating them from the relegation zone.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s team have conceded an alarming number of goals, keeping just one clean sheet in 15 games. Forest won twice and lost three times in their last five Premier League home games. It is safe to assume that Forest will score this weekend, as they have scored in all nine matches under Nuno Espirito Santo.

The Reds performed well in their victory over Chelsea in the EFL Cup final last weekend, with Virgil scoring a header in the 118th minute to give Jurgen Klopp his first trophy of the new season.
The Reds extended their unbeaten streak to five matches across all competitions after defeating Southampton 3-0 at Anfield, securing their spot in the quarterfinals, where they will face Manchester United.
