Liverpool are flying high after a scintillating start to the 2024/25 Premier League campaign. They have kept a perfect record with a 3-0 thumping of fierce rivals Manchester United two weeks ago at Old Trafford.
It was also the third subsequent clean sheet for Arne Slot and his troops. The Dutch manager will have a nice chance to celebrate his fourth win on the trot in the Premier League this weekend.
Liverpool host Nottingham Forest in Gameweek No 4 on Saturday afternoon at the Anfield.
Nottingham Forest have been playing hot and cold since the beginning of the season. They did not impress in two home draws to Bournemouth and Wolves but a 1-0 road victory over Southampton fully revealed the team’s strengths in the second round.
Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest Prediction
Nottingham Forest have been playing tight, defensive-minded football so far in the season. None of their four competitive games this term has seen three or more goals scored.
They are now up against Liverpool who are yet to concede this season, meaning a home win to nil might just be the way to go here.
The gulf in quality is huge in general. Liverpool head into the tie on the back of three comprehensive victories. They’ve also been the dominant force in the history of this matchup.
