Updates from the City Ground as Liverpool take on in-form Nottingham Forest in a top-of-the-table Premier League clash

Liverpool head coach Arne Slot now views their only Premier League defeat of the season differently having seen how Nottingham Forest have defied expectations. At the time, the 1-0 loss in September was considered a major shock as a team who finished 17th last season registered their first win at Anfield since 1969.

Liverpool picked up a point on the road as they drew 1-1 with Nottingham Forest at the City ground in the Premier League on Tuesday. Forest scored with their first attack when Chris Wood finished clinically from Anthony Elanga's through ball in the eighth minute after Liverpool had lost the ball in midfield.

Nottingham Forest host Liverpool in a Premier League encounter that could have huge ramifications for the title race and prove that Nuno Espirito Santo’s side are genuine title contenders this season.
