Liverpool take on Nottingham Forest hoping to bounce back from their 3-0 defeat to Manchester City a fortnight ago.
Liverpool will host Nottingham Forest at Anfield on November 22, 2025, in a key Premier League clash that could shape the mid-table battle and relegation fight.
The Reds currently sit 8th with 18 points, eager to bounce back after a heavy 3-0 defeat to Manchester City in their last league outing. Nottingham Forest, positioned 19th with 9 points, arrive with renewed confidence after an impressive 3-1 home win over Leeds United.
This fixture promises drama and intrigue, especially considering recent history. Nottingham Forest shocked Liverpool last season with a 1-0 win at Anfield, breaking the Reds’ strong home dominance over the visitors.

The most recent meeting between the two sides ended in a 1-1 draw at Forest’s City Ground earlier this year, reflecting a growing competitiveness between the clubs.
Team News and Lineups
Liverpool are expected to line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation under Arne Slot, with key players such as Alisson Becker, back from injury, guarding the net, and a backline led by experienced duo of Virgil van Dijk and Andrew Robertson at left back - with Milos Kerekez still struggling to find his feet.
Curtis Jones could start in midfield, with Dominic Szoboszlai starting at right back with Conor Bradley unavailable and Jeremie Frimpong yet to find form.
In midfield and attack, Mohamed Salah, Alexis Mac Allister, and Cody Gakpo will be crucial to breaking down Forest’s defense. However, Liverpool will be without Giovanni Leoni, Florian Wirtz, Conor Bradley, Jeremie Frimpong, and Stefan Bajcetic due to injury.
Nottingham Forest, managed by Sean Dyche, will also deploy a 4-2-3-1 formation. Matz Sels will start in goal, while Nikola Milenkovic and Neco Williams lead the defensive line.
The midfield duo of Ryan Yates and Elliot Anderson will be key in transition, with Morgan Gibbs-White and Nicolas Dominguez supporting forward Igor Jesus. Forest will miss Chris Wood, Angus Gunn, Douglas Luiz, Dilane Bakwa, Oleksandr Zinchenko, and Ola Aina.
Recent Form and Head-to-Head
Liverpool’s recent form is mixed — with two wins and three losses in their last five matches across competitions.
Despite the heavy defeat to Manchester City, they showed resilience by beating Real Madrid 1-0 in the Champions League and comfortably overcoming Aston Villa 2-0 in the league. On the flip side, poor results in the EFL Cup and league matches against Crystal Palace and Brentford have raised concerns.
Nottingham Forest have shown gradual improvement, picking up a win, two draws, and one loss in their last four matches. Their 3-1 victory against Leeds was a statement result, while a hard-fought 2-2 draw at Manchester United and a Europa League goalless draw against Sturm Graz demonstrated growing stability.
In five recent Premier League encounters, Liverpool have won three, Forest one, and one ended in a draw. However, Forest’s recent success at Anfield and their ability to hold Liverpool at home shows this fixture is far from a straightforward win for the Reds.
Prediction
Given Liverpool’s quality and home advantage, they enter as favorites, but Nottingham Forest’s recent form and history at Anfield suggest a tightly contested game.
Expect an intense match with both sides pushing hard for points—potentially ending in a narrow Liverpool win or a draw.
