Forest vs Liverpool: New Manager Bounce or Reds Rejuvenated?
22 Feb
Summary
- Liverpool seeks consistency amid fears of past form dips.
- Nottingham Forest battles relegation despite new manager optimism.
- Arne Slot's Liverpool aims for crucial points at the City Ground.
Sunday's Premier League action features a critical clash between Nottingham Forest and Liverpool at the City Ground. Liverpool arrives with a recent upturn in form, having won four of their last five matches, including a convincing FA Cup victory over Brighton. However, questions persist about their consistency, a concern that has plagued their season.
Nottingham Forest, meanwhile, is in a desperate battle for Premier League survival. Despite a promising 3-0 away win in their first match under new manager Vitor Pereira, the team remains perilously close to the relegation zone. The renewed optimism under Pereira is palpable, but the urgent need for points remains.
For Liverpool, securing a victory at the City Ground would be a significant statement of intent for the remainder of the season. Manager Arne Slot has made two changes to the lineup that faced Brighton, with Ryan Gravenberch and Hugo Ekitike returning. The game is part of a busy Sunday schedule, which also includes Crystal Palace vs. Wolves and Sunderland vs. Fulham, all kicking off at 2 PM GMT.
