Liverpool FC vs. Nottingham Forest FC

Liverpool enter the Premier League fixture at Anfield as clear favorites, reflecting their historical home dominance and superior squad depth despite a new managerial era under Andoni Iraola and several absences including Conor Bradley and Joe Gomez. Their opening-week 2-2 draw at Newcastle showcased resilience with a late Dominik Szoboszlai penalty, while Nottingham Forest, managed by Oliver Glasner, opened with a narrow home defeat to Leeds and travel without key players Ryan Yates and Nicolo Savona. Recent head-to-head results remain mixed, including Forest’s 3-0 upset at Anfield in November 2025, yet Liverpool’s attacking options such as Florian Wirtz, Alexander Isak, and Szoboszlai, combined with home advantage, underpin the 65.5% implied probability for a home win over the 14.5% for an away victory.
