Nottingham Forest Team News

Steve Cooper’s men drew 0-0 against Brighton in the previous round at the Amex Stadium. Although the Seagulls attacked fiercely for the entire 90 minutes, the Nottingham defense did not capitulate.

It was the second draw in the last three rounds for the returning elite. They drew with Aston Villa 1-1 in the 11th round. Goalkeeper Dean Henderson was once again one of the best individuals of the team from the City Ground. He recorded seven saves and his performance is the main reason why this team recorded a clean sheet.

But Nottingham Forest is still in last place in the Premier League table. They have not won in nine consecutive games. They have won just six points in 11 games this season. They scored only seven goals, so their attack is the second most inefficient, while the defense is quite vulnerable and allowed as many as 23 goals to the opponents.

Liverpool Team News

Thanks to a goal from Darwin Nunez, Liverpool beat West Ham 1-0 and achieved their second consecutive triumph. Previously, they defeated Manchester City with an identical score, and the scorer in that match was Mohamed Salah. One of the heroes of the clash against the Hammers was goalkeeper Alisson, who saved Jarrod Bowen’s penalty kick.

Jurgen Klopp’s team made some progress in the standings. They are now in seventh place with 16 points, and they will have another chance to continue their winning streak on Saturday. They enter the match against Nottingham Forest as absolute favorites.

Curtis Jones has recovered from injury and this is positive news for the coaching staff of the European runners-up. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also returned to the lineup, but he watched the entire game against West Ham from the bench. Andy Robertson, who was rested by the coach on Wednesday, is expected to return to the starting line-up.

Diogo Jota, Luis Diaz, and Arthur will be out of the team for a long time.

Michael Owen on Darwin Nunez:

“I love certain aspects about Darwin Nunez. I think off the ball he's a real runner. I mean, he gallops into those channels with purpose, he can beat players. He's quick, he's a big lad." #lfc [liverpool echo] pic.twitter.com/xb9E5tkFkN
