The Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper will be grateful to have no fitness worries whatsoever before this clash owing to a completely healthy group available for selection.

Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp has not got a full squad to pick from. Naby Keïta (Hamstring Injury), Diogo Jota (Calf Injury), Joel Matip (Calf Injury), Luis Díaz (Knee Injury) and Arthur Melo (Surgery) are those who can’t be considered.

Our thinking is that Liverpool have the ability to create a good amount of chances and successful shots on target.

Conversely, Nottingham Forest might well find it a difficult task to break down their defence but we do fancy them managing to get on the scoresheet.

Accordingly, we see a decent 1-3 winning margin for Liverpool after 90 minutes.
