The return of Nottingham Forest for the first time in this century is not a fairy tale with a happy ending. Today’s hosts have a series of nine games in a row without a win in a row, while the problems cover the entire length of the field. Moreover, numerous contracts last summer did not justify themselves in any way. The team confidently settled in the relegation zone, while only Wolverhamton scored less and only Leicester conceded more. Moreover, in the home arena, the team got only four points, which, on the eve of such an opponent as Liverpool, is a bad omen. Nevertheless, one win and three draws correspond to six points and the last position in the standings. Kolbak, Lodi, Toffolo, Richards and Niahate, who has a hip injury, will not be able to play today.
Liverpool came to life. The team won the last two matches, beating Manchester City and West Ham with a score of 1:0 in turn, which ensured the first winning streak of three matches in a row. Jurgen Klopp will look to capitalize on this momentum to lead his team to their first away win this season in the Premier League. Before this game, the Merseysiders have four wins and draws, which corresponds to 16 points and seventh position in the standings. The attack looks good, which differed 22 times, while on the road the team scored in 31 of the last 33 matches. In the Champions League tournament, the last round brought more than convincing success in the duel against Rangers (7:1). After a trip to Scotland, the Reds are in second position in the quartet, where they will face Ajax next week. Jones, Robertson, Oxlade-Chamberlain and Arthur, who has a muscle injury, will not be able to play today.
