Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest betting tips

There's more than enough riding on this one for both sides ahead of their 3pm kick off this Saturday.

Liverpool smashed six past Leeds on Monday night and will hope that's the sign of things to come.

Saying that, the result at Elland Road was their first win since knocking seven past Manchester United (3L, 2D since).

Jurgen Klopp's men are still well in the hunt for a European place of some variety, though which competition that might be is still yet to be decided.

The Reds are nine points off Newcastle in fourth and six behind 5th place Spurs, who've played a game more.

Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota all got on the scoresheet on Monday, making Klopp's selection dilemma a positive one.

For Forest, they were pretty toothless in their 2-0 defeat to Man Utd last weekend.

They failed to carry a threat going forward and allowed United's midfield to dictate the game.

Steve Cooper's odds to go as Forest boss were slashed as a result with the in the bottom three on goal difference.

But he's still at the helm heading for Anfield and will hope to end ten-game winless run.

DiogoGoGo

Diogo Jota ended a long wait without a goal when scoring twice at Elland Road and that should see him retain his place.

It was the Portuguese's first time on the scoresheet since returning from a long injury lay off in February and he'll be keen to make it the first of many from now to the season's end.

His odds to score anytime of 5/4 with William Hill could be a sound bet.

But at slightly bigger odds, we'll bank on him having more than one shot on target in the 90 minutes.

He's back

Yes, Luis Diaz is back in the Liverpool fold after his injury.

But if he's thrust straight back in, it could be he's up against returning ex-Liverpool man Neco Williams.

Williams was a solid stand-in for Trent Alexander-Arnold during his time at the club before moving on and, no matter who he faces on that left hand side, will face a stern test.

We reckon he'll do OK and show his typical tenacious side.

Urging Caution!

It could be a bit backs to the wall at times for Forest, who will need to deal with the Liverpool attacks better than Leeds did -- and better than they did themselves against United.

Orel Mangala has found himself in the referee's book in both of the last two games, despite playing less than half an hour in each.

If he starts, this price could look even better. But we're still happy to play even if it's just a long cameo once again.
