As Liverpool prepare for Sunday’s trip to the City Ground to face a Nottingham Forest side teetering above the relegation zone.
Forest caused a shock when beating the Reds 3-0 at Anfield back in November, but Arne Slot‘s men are in better form now and determined to claim that fourth place in the Premier League.
If Nottingham Forest win, it will be their first league double over Liverpool since 1962-63.
Liverpool have won just one of their last 15 away league games against Nottingham Forest (D8 L6), beating them 1-0 in March 2024 thanks to a late Darwin Nunez strike.
Nottingham Forest are unbeaten in their last three league games against Liverpool (W2 D1), last having a longer run against them between September 1962 and September 1963 (W3 D1).
Liverpool have won just three of their last 11 Premier League away games (D3 L5). However, they did end Sunderland’s unbeaten home run last time out, and are looking to win consecutively on the road for the first time since September.
Against Sunderland last time out, Mohamed Salah recorded his 92nd Premier League assist for Liverpool, the joint-most of any player for the club, tying Steven Gerrard. The Egyptian, however, has neither scored or assisted in his two appearances at the City Ground in the competition, one of just two venues he has played at more than once in the league for Liverpool without a goal involvement (also 3 apps at Bramall Lane).
