Nottingham Forest v Liverpool: Premier League – live (The Guardian)

Minute-by-minute report: Can Forest stall Liverpool's recent momentum and boost their survival hopes at the City Ground? Find out with Rob Smyth.

[Liverpool](https://www.theguardian.com/football/liverpool) will hope that the win over Manchester City last weekend was their catalyst. For a couple of years at the end of the 1970s, this was the biggest game in English football. Forest have improved defensively, conceding only two in their last three games, but what they need now is a famous victory to kickstart their season. Forest won the League Cup final and dethroned Liverpool as European champions; Liverpool ended Forest’s record 42-game unbeaten run and took their league title. Fabinho is in for Jordan Henderson and Jurgen Klopp has also changed both full-backs. The home fans are making their usual racket.

Sat, October 22 Nottingham Forest play host to Liverpool at the City Ground in Nottingham, England. — Liverpool to open the Premier League weekend. 1 hour 30 mins to KO: A half-hour until team news releases at the City Ground. 1 hour to KO: Team news is in, with Nunez and Thiago missing from the squad entirely! 45 mins to KO: Forest have been in a horrendous run of form since their home opener against West Ham in August, which remains their sole victory of 2022/23. We are committed to this style." Liverpool were the defending continental champions heading into that tie, but Brian Clough's men emerged 2-0 winners here en route to winning the trophy themselves. 30 mins to KO: This fixture is of course steeped in history, with the 1978/79 European Cup clash being among the most famous in Forest folklore. The decision was made this morning at 5:15. For Darwin, the game comes too early, he still feels the intensity of the game muscle-wise so there was no chance he could play today.

Steve Cooper seems to not know his best starting XI yet after a summer of unlimited incomings. Jesse Lingard is yet to show any form he showed on loan at West Ham and is instead showing his Manchester United form. [Luis Diaz](https://www.si.com/soccer/liverpool/news/luis-diaz-injury-forces-him-out-for-the-year-after-liverpools-loss-to-arsenal) and [Diogo Jota](https://www.si.com/soccer/liverpool/news/diogo-jota-injury-update-striker-picked-up-calf-problem-in-liverpool-win-over-manchester-city) alongside the potential absence of Darwin Nunez. If his Uruguayan teammate is missing, I expect Salah to be in front of Firmino in a front two. Whether it be Mohamed Salah or Roberto Firmino as the front man, the Forest defence will have to be on it. It is likely that we will see either or both Fabio Carvalho and Harvey Elliot. The term cruise control comes too mind. If Nunez is, in fac,t fit, then Salah will likely play behind him or on the right. This only means one thing.

Nottingham Forest stuns Liverpool: Analysis, Jurgen Klopp reaction (NBC Sports)

Nottingham Forest pulled off a huge shock to beat Liverpool at the City Ground on Saturday as Taiwo Awoniyi's second half strike sealed the upset win.

As for the lineup, well, Forest make two changes as Kouyate and Awoniyi come in. Forest had Kouyate and Yates sat in front of their defense and they snapped into challenges, won the ball back so many times and set the tone for a huge win. Darwin Nunez isn’t in the squad after suffering a small Injury against West Ham in midweek. This victory will give Forest huge belief and now they have become tough to beat, the onus is now on their attacking talents to deliver when it matters most. He pushed his luck in the first half with some reckless challenges but his incredible energy set the tone for this win. Dean Henderson is playing well in goal for Forest, while Liverpool’s goalkeeper Alisson saved Jarrod Bowen’s penalty kick and continues to deliver fine saves when it matters most. Forest are backing Steve Cooper after giving him a new contract but after firing their recruitment staff, there are a lot of questions around their extensive, and expensive, summer splurge. Of course, Virgil van Dijk is a colossus of a defender but he had Liverpool’s best two chances and squandered them both. Ryan Yates (who could have scored a second late on) in midfield has summed up how tough they have become to beat and it was always going to take time for Cooper to find a winning formula with a whole new squad. Van Dijk misses big chances as Liverpool definitely out of title race: In the first half he tried to set up Firmino instead of nodding home from six yards out and late on he was totally unmarked but Henderson saved his header which was straight down the middle of the goal. Salah struggling in central role: The Egyptian King is missing the right wing as Salah started up top again in Liverpool’s 4-4-2 and it just isn’t working. Forest have looked more physical in recent games and their draw at Brighton gave them confidence they could sit back, dig deep and hurt teams on the counter.
