NFO

Nottingham Forest are a mid-table side who are hard to beat at home but can struggle to create against organised defences, which keeps their games tighter.

Away

Anfield, Liverpool

LIV

Liverpool are among the title contenders. Expect them to control possession away at City Ground and push Forest back, so their chance count, and the corners market, tends to run high.

Betting notes

How to bet on Forest vs Liverpool

Four angles to weigh before you place a bet on this fixture.

  1. 01

    With the draw only 24%, the match-result market is fairly clean. Liverpool on the Liverpool -0.5 handicap gives a bigger price if you expect a comfortable win.

  2. 02

    The corners range is 10-13. The favourite tends to win most of them while the underdog sits deep, so team corners can beat the match total.

  3. 03

    Powerplay247 is an exchange: you can back or lay every market on Forest vs Liverpool and trade out in-play, for example after an early goal, instead of waiting for full time.

  4. 04

    Wait for the confirmed line-ups, usually out an hour before kick-off. A missing striker or first-choice keeper can move the goals lines more than the 1X2 price.
