Manager Arne Slot has enjoyed a smooth transition into his role, guiding the team to a flawless start, including an emphatic 3-0 victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford before the international break. This dominant performance has reinforced their status as one of the early title contenders.
Nottingham Forest, on the other hand, have had a mixed start to their campaign. While their defense has been relatively solid, with tight performances across their first three matches, they’ve managed only one win so far. Steve Cooper's side will need to be at their best to challenge a confident Liverpool side that will go into the match as clear favorites to secure another three points.
With the Anfield crowd behind them and their sights set on maintaining their perfect record, Liverpool will be determined to put on another strong display against a Forest side aiming to disrupt their rhythm.
