Nottm Forest vs Liverpool LIVE: Premier League result and reaction after Taiwo Awoniyi winner

6 mins: Liverpool clear their lines and boot the ball long down the right wing where Serge Aurier gets to the ball ahead of Salah and belts it out for a throw in with a no nonsense clearance.

The Reds continue to probe Forest’s defence out from the right wing but there’s no way into the box and they have to retreat.

3 mins: Forest nick the ball off Salah and knock it into midfield where some lovely footwork from Cheikhou Kouyate sees him twist and turn his way past two attempted tackles.

He gives the ball to Morgan Gibbs-White who cuts in from the right wing and tries to slide a through ball into the box for Taiwo Awoniyi but Virgil van Dijk leans across the path of the ball and intercepts the pass.

Nottingham Forest get the ball rolling to kick off this Premier League game. They send the ball over to the left wing but it’s won by James Milner and Liverpool work the ball across the back line.

The visitors want to string together a few passes before working it through midfield and sending Milner forward on the right side. He passes up to Harvey Elliott who tries to find Mo Salah in the box but Forest intercept and clear the ball.

Here come the players.

The City Ground is in full voice as the two teams head out of the tunnel. James Milner captains the Liverpool side who are looking to take a big step closer to the top four today.

Forest want to record their second win of the season. Can they upset the Reds?

Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper knows his side will have to be perfect to stand any chance against Liverpool on Saturday.

The Reds visit the City Ground for the first time in the Premier League since 1999 and they are beginning to find some form after back-to-back wins over Manchester City and West Ham.

Forest on the other hand have not won in nine games and have lost six of those as they sit in the bottom three on their return to the top flight.

Despite Liverpool’s difficulties this season it would be one of the biggest shocks in recent years if Forest were able to beat Jurgen Klopp’s side and Cooper knows everything has to go right.

Mohamed Salah has scored in each of his last six away league starts against promoted opposition. Will he do so again today?

Taiwo Awoniyi - formerly of Liverpool - can become the first player to score in each of his first three Premier League home starts for Forest.

Liverpool are unbeaten in 16 Premier League away games against promoted sides since a 2-0 loss at Hull in February 2017. They’ve won 11 and drew five in that run.

But, the Reds are in danger of suffering consecutive Premier League away defeats for the first time since that loss to Hull and then Leicester.

Nottingham Forest have opened the scoring in each of their last three home games but failed to win any of them recording one draw and two defeats.

Forest are the only side in the Premier League this season yet to score from outside the penalty area.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has apologised for chants by the club’s fans referencing the Hillsborough and Heysel tragedies during last weekend’s stormy defeat at Liverpool.

The Catalan, who says he did not hear any offensive chanting himself, also believes City will learn lessons on and off the field from what occurred at Anfield on Sunday.

Liverpool expressed their disappointment at “vile” chanting from City fans, as well graffiti also referring to the two 1980s disasters, after the game.
