Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
Liverpool have a good historical record against Nottingham Forest and have won 60 out of the 132 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Nottingham Forest's 32 victories.
Nottingham Forest won their away game against Liverpool by a 1-0 margin in the reverse fixture in the Premier League last year and will be looking to complete a league double over the Merseysiders for the first time since the 1962-63 campaign.
Liverpool won this exact fixture by a 1-0 margin last season and managed to end a winless run of 13 matches away from home on the trot against Nottingham Forest in league competitions.
Nottingham Forest have won each of their last six matches in the Premier League and could equal their longest-ever winning streak in the history of the competition this week.
Prediction: Nottingham Forest 1-2 Liverpool
Forest have not exclusively faced teams that they would ordinarily be expected to conquer during their stellar sequence - Brentford at home, Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa and Man United are no pushovers - and Santo's men will certainly give the league leaders a terrific run for their money. However, Liverpool's big hitters finally enjoyed a well-earned break on FA Cup weekend, and Slot's men should therefore cut revitalised figures at the City Ground, where they have our vote to end Forest's magnificent run by the narrowest of margins.
