20:00 Tuesday

First and second in the Premier League meet this evening as Forest look to close the gap on league leaders, Liverpool to just three points.

Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool Prediction

  • Nottingham Forest have won seven successive matches after their 2-0 FA Cup win over Luton. Forest are looking to close the gap to league leaders Liverpool to three points.
  • Liverpool fell to just their second competitive defeat of the campaign when they lost to Spurs last week. Their only loss in the league came in the reverse fixture.
  • Forest will hope to do the double over the Reds, but Liverpool won't underestimate their opponents this time and will know the importance of a win.
  • This should be a tight game but if Forest allow the chances they did against Wolves last time out, then I can see Liverpool punishing them.

Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool Bet Builder Tips

Our Bet Builder Tips for Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool features Nicolás Domínguez to Receive a Card, Salah to Score and Liverpool to Win.

At the time of publishing this is a best price of 10/1 with BetMGM.

Dominguez will play a crucial role in dm this game, tasked with stopping Liverpool's fast breaks and passign play on the edge of the Forest box too. He is prone to a rash challenge as is evident from his seven yellows despite averaging just 1.1 foul a game.

In a high pressure match like this and facing Liverpool's most fouled players in Gravenberch and Mac Allister, I can see him picking up a card.

Salah's record this season speaks for itself and he has often been the difference in big games too. With Forest set to sit back Liverpool will likely lean on Salah's creativity and ability to find the net in these situations. It also helps that he will be taking penalties.

Liverpool know the importance of picking up a win here to avoid giving Forest a real chance of competing for the title this season and will want to make up for their earlier loss against this side.

Forest have one of the league's best defences but they face a Liverpool attack who have been almost impossible to stop this season.

Forest looked vulnerable in their last league game against Wolves and were fortunate the heroics of Sels stopped a number of chances. If Liverpool get the same chances, they will make them count.
