Mansion Sports – Many observers have begun to suggest that Liverpool are gradually releasing their grip on the Premier League title race this season. 

Nevertheless, they must maintain full concentration as they prepare to face Nottingham Forest, a team that has grown increasingly solid under their new manager.

The match will take place at Anfield on Saturday, 22 November 2025 at 15:00 local time.

Arne Slot’s squad return from a pre-international-break defeat, while Sean Dyche’s side arrive in Merseyside with the chance to extend their unbeaten run in all competitions to four matches.

Here is Mansion Sports’ coverage on where to watch Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest in November 2025 so you do not miss a moment of the action.

Team Conditions Ahead of the Match

Liverpool

Liverpool supporters are still questioning the controversial decision that ruled out Virgil van Dijk’s goal against Manchester City. However, they cannot ignore the reality that the Reds were ultimately outclassed in a convincing 3–0 defeat by a dominant City performance.

Their determination in previous matches against Aston Villa and Real Madrid was not nearly enough to withstand the hosts at the Etihad. 

Jeremy Doku delivered an exceptional display, repeatedly unsettling Liverpool’s defence before sealing the match with a spectacular curling strike following earlier goals from Erling Haaland and Nico González.

Although City’s opening two goals took deflections, their overall performance fully justified the result. The defeat also ended Liverpool’s remarkable run of scoring in 44 consecutive Premier League fixtures.

The Reds now sit eight points behind leaders Arsenal, and mathematically their position is as close to the relegation zone as it is to the top of the table. It is therefore unsurprising that doubts regarding their title defence have intensified.

Even so, Liverpool’s home form remains a source of pride. Slot has guided the team to four victories from five home league matches this season, and more than a year has passed since they last failed to score at Anfield in the Premier League.

Liverpool also welcome positive injury news: Alisson Becker is expected to return after recovering from a hamstring issue. With the goalkeeper back, only Jeremie Frimpong and Giovanni Leoni remain unavailable, while Alexander Isak has been cleared to play despite earlier fitness concerns.

The £125 million striker began on the bench at the Etihad but is now among the leading candidates to start in place of Hugo Ekitike. On another significant note, Mohamed Salah is poised to make his 300th Premier League appearance for the club.

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest return to Anfield carrying considerable ambition. Liverpool fans will remember that Forest were the last team to prevent them from scoring at home, a feat achieved in September 2024.

Forest now have the opportunity to claim back-to-back league wins at Anfield for the first time since 1963.

Despite sitting 11 places and nine points below Liverpool, the signs of resurgence within Dyche’s squad are unmistakable. 

They are unbeaten in their last three matches and have suffered only one defeat in their previous five across all competitions.

Their 3–1 victory over Leeds United in matchweek 11 marked their second league win of the season, with Ibrahim Sangaré, Morgan Gibbs-White, and Elliot Anderson all contributing. The result lifted them to within one point of safety.

Under Dyche, Forest have shown notable improvements in their attacking metrics, averaging 13 shots and 1.6 Expected Goals per match—figures superior to those recorded under Ange Postecoglou and Nuno Espírito Santo. Whether this progression is sustainable remains to be seen.

Last season, Forest secured four points from their two league meetings with Liverpool. Should they avoid defeat at Anfield once more, they would record a three-match unbeaten league run against the Reds for the first time since 1993.

From a squad-availability standpoint, Forest continue to monitor the conditions of Chris Wood, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Dilane Bakwa, and Callum Hudson-Odoi. Meanwhile, Ola Aina, Douglas Luiz, and Angus Gunn are confirmed absentees.

Wood’s potential absence could be a major setback, as he is considered the ideal player to exploit Liverpool’s weaknesses in aerial duels. Even so, Forest retain alternative options such as Igor Jesus, Arnaud Kalimuendo, and former Liverpool striker Taiwo Awoniyi.

Gibbs-White also enters the match in excellent form and has the chance to score in three consecutive Premier League fixtures for the first time in his career.
