Following their 3-0 win at Anfield in November, Nottingham Forest are looking to complete their first league double over Liverpool since 1962-63.

Liverpool have won just one of their last 15 away league games against Nottingham Forest (D8 L6), beating them 1-0 in March 2024 thanks to a late Darwin Núñez strike.

Nottingham Forest are unbeaten in their last three league games against Liverpool (W2 D1), last having a longer run against them between September 1962 and September 1963 (W3 D1).

Nottingham Forest have drawn each of their last three home league games. They last had four consecutive draws at the City Ground in November/December 1998, in the last campaign they were relegated from the Premier League.

Liverpool have won just three of their last 11 Premier League away games (D3 L5). However, they did end Sunderland’s unbeaten home run last time out, and are looking to win consecutively on the road for the first time since September.

Nottingham Forest have failed to score in 12 Premier League games this season, with only bottom side Wolves failing to in more (14 before their meeting with Arsenal). Two of Forest’s last five Premier League games have finished 0-0, as many goalless draws as in their previous 124 games in the competition.

Excluding penalties, Nottingham Forest have scored six and conceded 13 goals from set-pieces in the Premier League this season (-7), while Liverpool have scored eight and conceded 14 (-6). These are the two worst negative differences between set-piece goals of any side in 2025-26.

This will be Vítor Pereira’s first league game in charge of Nottingham Forest. The last six Forest managers have lost their first Premier League game at the club, with Dave Bassett the last to avoid that fate in March 1997 (1-0 vs Tottenham Hotspur).

Murillo, Nicolo Savona and Morgan Gibbs-White were on target for Nottingham Forest in their 3-0 win against Liverpool in November. Only two Forest players have scored home and away goals against the Reds in a Premier League campaign – Dougie Freedman in 1998-99 and Steve Stone in 1995-96.

Against Sunderland last time out, Mohamed Salah recorded his 92nd Premier League assist for Liverpool, the joint-most of any player for the club, tying Steven Gerrard. The Egyptian, however, has neither scored or assisted in his two appearances at the City Ground in the competition, one of just two venues he has played at more than once in the league for Liverpool without a goal involvement (also 3 apps at Bramall Lane).
