Liverpool is currently on a winning streak, having secured all three matches under the management of Arne Slot. This weekend, they will be challenging Nottingham Forest, who also aim to maintain their unbeaten status at Anfield.
The highlight of Slot’s early days in the Premier League was a 3-0 victory against Manchester United just before the international break.
Nottingham Forest has had a solid start under Nuno Espirito Santo, achieving draws against Bournemouth and Wolves in addition to a win over Southampton.

Curtis Jones has returned to training after a muscle injury, providing more midfield options. Luis Dias and Alexis Mac Allister might be considered for rest after returning from extensive travel due to international duties. Mac Allister is also dealing with a minor muscle issue.
