Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest

, KO: 15:00 Sep 14, 2024, Anfield
Nottingham Forest

Liverpool will be looking to make it four Premier League wins in succession when they face Nottingham Forest at Anfield on Saturday afternoon.

New Liverpool boss Arne Slot has enjoyed a dream start to life in the Reds dugout, steering his side to three straight victories, a feat only matched by Man City after three rounds of top-flight action.

The Merseysiders made relatively light work of Ipswich and Brentford before brilliantly dismantling fierce rivals Manchester United 3-0 at Old Trafford a fortnight ago.

Back at their Anfield headquarters this weekend, the Reds will be targeting another three points when Nottingham Forest come to town.

The Tricky Trees have yet to taste defeat in three top-flight outings this term to date, accumulating five points across their opening three contests of the campaign.

Last time out, Nuno Espirito Santo’s were held to a 1-1 draw at home to Wolves, on what was a profitable afternoon for our man Kevin Mac.

How the bookies view it: Light work for Liverpool

Unsurprisingly, Liverpool are lowly 2/9 favourites on Bet 365 to maintain their 100% start to the new Premier League season.

Nottingham Forest is as big as 12/1 (William Hill) to make it back-to-back road wins in the Premier League this season, while an all-square affair at Anfield is an unfancied 6/1 (Ladbrokes).

Head to head: Reds rule the roost

Liverpool have claimed top honours from each of their last three Premier League fixtures with Nottingham Forest, not to mention they have lost just once across the last nine meetings between the pair in all competitions. 

Last season’s corresponding fixture ended 3-0 in Liverpool’s favour thanks to goals from Diogo Jota, Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah.

Players to watch: Salah hot streak to continue?

Mohamed Salah has started the season in fine form for Liverpool, scoring in each of his three Premier League appearances thus far. The Egyptian ace is an eye-catching even-money (1/1) on UniBet to notch against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Chris Wood – who has netted in two of his three top-flight appearances this season to date – has been priced up at 9/2 for anytime strike at Anfield.

Predicted line-ups

New Liverpool signing Federico Chiesa could make his debut this weekend, though he will likely have to settle for a place on the bench. 

Nottingham Forest midfielder Danilo is not expected to return from injury until December at the earliest.

Liverpool: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Szoboszlai, Diaz; Jota

Nottingham Forest: Sels; Williams, Milenkovic, Murillo, Moreno; Anderson, Sangare; Elanga, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi; Wood

Anything else catch the eye?

With Liverpool too short to side with here, I’ll head to the Bet Builder market to get a home win onside at a backable price.

Bundling up the Reds in the half-time/full-time market, as well as backing them to earn over three corners, will bring about an appetising 4/5 shot on Bet 365.

This combination clicked during Liverpool’s previous Premier League home game this season against Brentford and the same selection looks worthy of support on Saturday afternoon.

This match between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest will be played on Sep 14, 2024 and kick off at 15:00. Check below for our tipsters best Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest prediction. You may also visit our dedicated betting previews section for the most up to date previews.
