Liverpool head coach Arne Slot now views their only Premier League defeat of the season differently having seen how Nottingham Forest have defied expectations. At the time, the 1-0 loss in September was considered a major shock as a team who finished 17th last season registered their first win at Anfield since 1969.

Arne Slot will welcome back Liverpool ’s big-hitters for tonight’s Premier League trip to Nottingham Forest, but there is a decision to make at right-back. The Reds head to the City Ground seeking revenge as their only league defeat of the campaign to date was in the reverse meeting with Forest at Anfield back in September.

Liverpool will be looking to boost their lead at the top of the Premier League table on January 14 as they head to in-form Nottingham Forest. Arne Slot's team will face a major test at the City Ground with Forest emerging as the surprise package of the campaign,
