Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest Premier League predictions: Will Slot continue perfect start at Anfield?
Liverpool will look to continue their perfect start to the Premier League season when they host Nottingham Forest.
Arne Slot has adjusted wonderfully to life in the Liverpool dugout, guiding the Reds to nine points in his first three games, with seven goals scored and none conceded — most recently crushing arch-rivals Manchester United 3-0 at Old Trafford prior to the international break. Forest, meanwhile, have also made an unbeaten start, taking five points from three games.

How both teams go into Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest
As mentioned, it couldn’t have gone much better for Slot at the start of his Liverpool reign. The Reds looked irresistible against Man Utd last time out, albeit profiting from some awful mistakes by the Red Devils. The only downside for Liverpool is probably the timing of the international break, with the likes of Salah and Ryan Gravenberch in the sort of form where they just want to keep pushing. However, that’s not something Slot is too worried about.
“That’s always the question after two weeks, but if you saw them playing with the national teams, I think the momentum for the individual [is there] and now let’s see if they come back together if they can play in the same way as the last few games,” he told reporters at his pre-match press conference.
The Reds will feel confident against a Nottingham Forest side they’ve dominated in recent meetings, but Nuno Espirito Santo’s men have been solid at the start of this season, winning 1-0 away at Southampton either side of 1-1 draws with Bournemouth and Wolves.

Liverpool team news
Curtis Jones missed the win at Old Trafford with a knock but should be back in time for this match. New signing Federico Chiesa should also make the squad for the first time after resting up over the international break, having not been named in the Italy squad to face France and Israel. Unfortunately, Harvey Elliott faces around six weeks on the sidelines with a fractured foot.

Nottingham Forest will be without Danilo long-term but, at the time of writing, the Brazilian remains their only injury concern.
