Overall, a 1-1 draw keeps Liverpool’s six-point cushion ahead of Forest intact, even if their head coach Arne Slot will have reservations, as he did when his team lost the reverse fixture at Anfield 1-0 four months ago, despite an excellent second half.

Liverpool dropped points again to Nottingham Forest in the Premier League this season, this time at the City Ground. Chris Wood put the upstart Forest in front just eight minutes in as it looked like Nuno Espirito Santo's team would once again get the better of Arne Slot.
