Liverpool is set to face Nottingham Forest at Anfield this weekend as Premier League action resumes. Under new manager Arne Slot, Liverpool has enjoyed a strong start, securing three consecutive wins without conceding a goal.
The team has thrived with key players such as Mohamed Salah, Luis Diaz, and Trent Alexander-Arnold excelling early in the season. Alexander-Arnold, in particular, was instrumental during England’s Nations League matches, earning Man of the Match in both games.
However, the international break wasn’t entirely positive for Liverpool, as youngster Harvey Elliott suffered a fractured foot while playing for England’s U-21 squad. Despite this setback, the team appears well-prepared for their match against Nottingham Forest.
Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher confidently predicted a 2-0 victory for the Reds, even with a likely rotated squad due to their upcoming Champions League clash against AC Milan.
Speaking on the “Stick to Football” podcast, Carragher emphasized Liverpool’s ability to control the game and believes Slot will slow the tempo after the hour mark to preserve energy for the crucial European fixture.
While there is talk of Liverpool potentially chasing records this season, Carragher stresses that the team’s focus should remain on winning individual games, rather than being distracted by historical achievements.
