Latest Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool team information
Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez appears to be on the wrong end of the stick after a string of bad luck. The Uruguayan missed a couple of good chances against Accrington and is also suspended for Tuesday's game after picking up five yellow cards in the Premier League against Man United.
Nunez will be just one of two Liverpool players to miss Tuesday's game, though. Slot's only injury absentee is defender Joe Gomez, who has a hamstring problem. Dominik Szoboszlai and Jarell Quansah are fit to start in the FA Cup after illness.
However, the duo are likely to have to give up their starting positions as coach Slot is expected to field the strongest possible lineup. Accordingly, Cody Gakpo could return and have the chance to become the 8th Dutch player to score in 4 consecutive Premier League matches.
Nottingham Forest, on the other hand, are also coming into the midweek clash with near full fitness. After a long spell on the sidelines with an ankle injury, Danilo made a remarkable return against Luton, being given the final five minutes of the game.
Ibrahim Sangare (hamstring) is currently the only casualty on Forest's injury list, and Santo could make some changes to his squad for the upcoming FA Cup, giving the likes of Carlos Miguel, James Ward-Prowse and Awoniyi a chance to feature.
Carlos Miguel, who is 2m03 tall, was superb in the win over Luton, making six excellent saves. However, Matz Sels will definitely be selected to guard the Forest goal on Tuesday, and will be looking to keep his 10th Premier League clean sheet. He is currently in contention with Jordan Pickford and David Raya for the Golden Glove award.
Latest predicted lineup for Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool
Nottingham Forest:
Sels; Aina, Milenkovic, Murillo, Williams; Anderson, Dominguez; Elanga, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi; Wood
Liverpool:
Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Jones, Gakpo; Diaz
Latest Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool football commentary
Desperate to make amends for their 1-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur in the first leg of their League Cup semi-final (although the Lucas Bergvall controversy overshadowed the loss), Liverpool went all out against a spirited Accrington side, winning 4-0 in a convincing fashion.
Trent Alexander-Arnold's long-range strike was the highlight of Saturday afternoon as he redeemed himself after a poor performance against Manchester United. Diogo Jota, Jayden Danns and Federico Chiesa also contributed goals to make the day for Anfield fans.
While Accrington's efforts are commendable, the question remains how many goals Liverpool can score in the third round match, although coach Slot made a number of changes compared to his usual.
Perhaps fatigue set in during the frantic draw with Manchester United in the Premier League, but Arsenal's failure to get a better result against Brighton & Hove Albion has kept the Reds six points clear at the top, with a game in hand.
Liverpool were beaten at Anfield by Nottingham Forest on Tuesday in September, but they remain unbeaten on the road in the Premier League 2024-25, having scored at least two goals in each of their last 12 top-flight games (five of which were away).
However, Tuesday's crunch clash will see Liverpool's devastating attack come up against a formidable Nottingham Forest defence, who are on a seven-game winning streak and have kept five clean sheets when Luton Town visit in the FA Cup third round.
Goals either side of half-time from Ryan Yates and Ramon Sosa secured victory for the Tricky Trees and they can fully expect a trip to Wembley next spring. Manager Nuno Espirito Santo is working wonders at this side.
The Premier League Manager of the Month for December visited Molineux (his old home) on January 6. And it's no surprise that the relationship between Wolverhampton Wanderers and his former boss Morgan Gibbs-White is not so good. In response to those "cold" comments, the Forest player opened the scoring in the 7th minute.
Chris Wood and Taiwo Awoniyi also made their mark, helping Santo's side to 40 points from just 20 games (equal to Arsenal), and the team are very close to the club's record of 7 consecutive wins (in the league).
The feat has never been achieved in the Tricky Trees' Premier League era, but there was certainly no shortage of confidence following their shock 1-0 win at Anfield in September. It was also the only result Liverpool had at the City Ground last season when Darwin Nunez's late winner caused chaos in the final minutes.
