Liverpool host Nottingham Forest at Anfield on Saturday 29 August, with both sides chasing a first Premier League win under new management. Kickoff is set for 12:30 p.m. BST.
The Reds arrive on the back of a 2-2 draw away at Newcastle last weekend, having battled back thanks to a Dominik Szoboszlai penalty deep into second-half injury time. The strike was the Hungarian midfielder’s 16th Premier League goal in 106 appearances for the club.
Nottingham Forest, meanwhile, have endured a difficult start under Oliver Glasner. The former Crystal Palace manager has overseen back-to-back defeats, first away at Leeds in the Premier League last weekend, followed by a 2-0 midweek loss to the same opposition in the Carabao Cup.

Streaming the Premier League from abroad with a VPN
Supporters travelling away from home can use a VPN to help with privacy and security when streaming. Virtual private networks encrypt traffic and prevent internet service providers from throttling speeds, while adding a layer of protection when connecting to public Wi-Fi.
VPNs are legal in many countries, including the United States and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy. However, some streaming services restrict VPN use for accessing region-specific content, so it is worth checking a platform’s terms of service before subscribing. Certain platforms may block access when a VPN is detected.
ExpressVPN, based in the British Virgin Islands, is rated highly for streaming and ease of use across platforms, with a strong commitment to transparency, though it sits at the more expensive end of the market and does not offer multihop connections.
