Liverpool preview: Struggling champions
The defence of their Premier League title has been a poor one thus far by Liverpool with only one or two really convincing performances and victories, as they slide out of the top seven in the Premier League ahead of this weekend.
Arne Slot’s Reds went into the November international break on the back of undoing some good work against Aston Villa and Real Madrid by suffering a 3-0 hammering at the hands of Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.
Nottingham Forest preview: Much-needed win
A tumultuous start to the season saw Nuno Espirito Santo depart Nottingham Forest before Ange Postecoglou’s short-lived time at the City Ground and now Sean Dyche’s side have got fighting again as they remain in the bottom three.
A hard-fought but much deserved 3-1 defeat of Leeds United a couple of weeks ago means that Forest have now suffered just one defeat in five matches across all competitions following the appointment of Dyche.

Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest prediction
Despite the fact that Forest have certainly been more competitive and difficult to beat under Dyche, as opposed to their soft centre being regularly exposed under Postecoglou, Sean Dyche teams often tend to be a soft touch for the so-called ‘bigger’ and ‘better’ teams in the top-flight, and Liverpool, needing a win, will be quite content with Nottingham Forest being the latest visitors to Anfield.
