Nottingham Forest Team News
- Out: Cheikhou Kouyaté, Giulian Biancone, Chris Wood, Willy Boly, Omar Richards
- Doubt: Sèrge Aurier, Ryan Yates, Gustavo Scarpa, Dean Henderson
It’s troubled times in Nottingham across what has been a season of frustration for Forest after finally returning to the Premier League. Despite a massive summer spending spree that saw them add an entire new first-team squad to the books, but that gamble has done little to improve the club’s chances of avoiding relegation. Forest come into the weekend sitting in the bottom three after posting five losses in their last six outings (0-1-5), and a stern test awaits Steve Cooper’s men as they travel to Merseyside.
Cooper is guaranteed to be without five senior members; Cheikhou Kouyaté, Giulian Biancone, Chris Wood, Willy Boly, and Omar Richards, all of whom have been ruled out thanks to injury. A further four will face late assessments to gauge any involvement in proceedings on Saturday, with Sèrge Aurier, Ryan Yates, Gustavo Scarpa, and Dean Henderson all on the clock to prove their fitness for the away day at Anfield.
