Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest Competition – English Premier League Stadium: Anfield Date: 22nd November 2025 Kick-off time – 15:00 GMT
Liverpool welcome Nottingham Forest to Anfield on Saturday afternoon for a Premier League encounter that sees both sides seeking to build on contrasting recent form. The hosts enter this fixture having suffered a comprehensive 3-0 defeat at Manchester City in their most recent outing, a result that highlighted the gulf between the sides and ended Liverpool’s brief period of improvement. Prior to that setback, Liverpool had secured back-to-back victories with a 1-0 home win over Real Madrid in the Champions League and a 2-0 home success against Aston Villa in league action. Earlier in this sequence, they suffered heavy defeats, losing 3-0 at home to Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup and falling 3-2 away at Brentford in the Premier League, leaving them with two wins and three losses across their last five matches. Nottingham Forest arrive at Anfield in considerably better spirits, having claimed a 3-1 home victory over Leeds United in their most recent match. That result demonstrated their attacking capabilities and represented their second win from their last five outings. Prior to that success, Forest secured a goalless draw away at SK Sturm Graz in European competition and also salvaged a 2-2 home draw with Manchester United in the Premier League. Earlier in this sequence, they suffered a 2-0 defeat away at AFC Bournemouth, though they also recorded a 2-0 home win against FC Porto, leaving them with two victories, two draws and one loss across their last five fixtures. The head-to-head record favours Liverpool, who have won three of the last five meetings between these sides, with Nottingham Forest claiming one victory alongside a single draw. Most recently, the sides played out a 1-1 draw at the City Ground in January 2025, while Nottingham Forest secured a notable 1-0 away win at Anfield in September 2024. Liverpool won 1-0 away at the City Ground in March 2024 and also claimed comprehensive home victories of 3-0 in October 2023 and 3-2 in April 2023. Saturday’s encounter represents a crucial opportunity for Liverpool to bounce back from their Manchester City humiliation and reassert their credentials at Anfield, while Forest will be eager to build on their impressive recent form and secure a rare victory at one of English football’s most iconic venues. The match kicks off at 15:00 GMT, with fans in Great Britain able to follow live radio commentary on BBC Radio 5 Live, while international viewers can tune in via beIN Sports across the Middle East, Peacock in the USA, fuboTV in Canada, or SuperSport across Africa.
