An injury-ravaged Liverpool could be held to a draw by a disciplined and counter-attacking Forest side.
The potential for an upset is high here. Liverpool is in the midst of a catastrophic injury crisis, missing numerous key players, especially in defense and midfield. Nottingham Forest, under Nuno, plays a disciplined, counter-attacking style that is perfectly suited to exploit the vulnerabilities of a weakened and makeshift Liverpool side. Forest will defend deep, stay organized, and look to break with pace. Given Liverpool's depleted squad, their ability to break down a low block and defend against counters will be severely tested.
