Liverpool is looking to add another win at home when they go against Nottingham Forest on April 22, 2023, at 10:00 PM (GMT+8). Liverpool is doing great with their home games, which makes this format works for their advantage. The Forest on the other hand is the more desperate team in this contest. Forest are now sitting at the 18th of the league table, below the relegation table. Their recent results are the main reason why they are pinned below the safety zone. However, since the Forest are tied in points with the team at the 17th, they have a chance to escape the drop zone.
These two teams have played 117 matches already, and the hosts are doing well against the visitors. From those 117 matches, they won 57 matches, while the visitors only recorded 31 wins. The hosts are doing well at home, winning their last 23 league home games against the visitors. Their last home defeat against the visitors is recorded way back 1969. The visitors on the other hand won their reverse fixture on their match earlier this season. It is a 1-0 win for the visitors, as they now hope for a double over against the hosts.
Liverpool
Liverpool is currently sitting at the eighth of the league table with 47 points across their names. A win in this match could put them at the seventh with additional three points, 50 points in total. This is not impossible though, as they have stepped up over the past weeks. In fact, they are coming from a dominating win against Leeds United on their last match. They had a 6-1 dominating victory against the Leeds, and are now aiming for the same results here. Over the past weeks, Liverpool have proved that they are a threat to all teams in the contest. In fact, they showed that they are an unstoppable team, as they are back in their impressive form. Diogo Jota, and Darwin Nunez is expected to lead this squad in this match.
Naby Keita, who is yet to recover from his muscular issue is unavailable in this game. He will join Stefan Bajcetic, and Calvin Ramsay on the sidelines for this match.
Nottingham Forest
The Forest is sitting at the 18th place in the Premier League, with 27 points across their names. Their current standing is not surprising since they are a team who failed to be at their best this season. As they are below the relegation table, they are aiming to win as much games as possible. It is unfortunate that they last match ended in a 2-0 defeat against Aston Villa, which could have been big for them. For this match, they are aiming to bounce back in order to escape the drop zone. As the Forest looks to bounce back in this game, they need to find answers on what went wrong from their recent results. Considering their current results, the Forest are desperate for turnaround in their results.
The Forest is facing injury crisis recently, which will surely affect their future matches. Giulian Biancone, Omar Richards, Chris Wood, Willy Boly, and Cheikhou Kouyate are all unavailable in this match. Ryan Yates, Serge Aurier, Dean Henderson, and Gustavo Scarpa are all unavailable in this game as well.

Liverpool (2.0)
