Liverpool take on Nottingham Forest in the Premier League at Anfield on Sunday afternoon (kick-off 2pm).
The Reds will be looking to continue their winning form against a side that is struggling in the lower half of the table.
We’ve been crunching the numbers ahead of the big game…
- Liverpool are unbeaten in their last 26 home games against Forest in all competitions, since a 2-0 defeat in February 1969.
- Forest’s only point in their six Premier League games at Liverpool came in a goalless draw in February 1993, in Brian Clough’s final season in charge of the club.
- The last four matches at Anfield have produced a total of 23 goals at an average of 5.8 per game, with 16 scored by Liverpool and 7 for Forest.
- This is Liverpool’s 1,200th Premier League match. Their first was a 1-0 away defeat against Nottingham Forest on 16 August 1992.
- The clean sheet against Everton last weekend was only the second in the league for Liverpool this season.
- Their only defeat in their last 46 Premier League games at Anfield (W35, D10) was a 2-1 loss to Leeds United in October last year. They are unbeaten in 16 home league fixtures since then (W13, D3).
- Liverpool have not lost a top-flight match at home against a team beginning with ‘N’ for 40 matches (W33, D7), last doing so in a 1-0 defeat by Norwich City in April 1994.
- Mo Salah has scored or assisted in each of his last 13 league games at Anfield, scoring a total of 14 goals and assisting 17.
- There have been five red cards in Liverpool’s nine Premier League matches so far this season (four for Liverpool, one for Everton’s Ashley Young).
