Team Form and Analysis
Nottingham Forest
Nottingham Forest has been dealing with some defensive woes this season, but their recent form has shown signs of improvement, especially in tough matches. Key to their survival hopes has been the performance of their forward line, which has begun to click into gear. However, injuries to crucial players could impact their matchday squad, and they will need their star performers to elevate their game against a high-flying Liverpool team.
Liverpool

The Reds have been less convincing defensively at times, making it imperative that they find more consistency in the back.

Tactically, expect a high press from Liverpool, looking to dominate possession and stifle Nottingham Forest's attempts to build from the back.
