On the prowl for a third consecutive win across all tournaments, Liverpool return to Premier League action on Sunday, when Nottingham Forest stop over at Anfield.

The Reds dismantled Toulouse 5-1 in Thursday's Europa League contest, while Steve Cooper's side threw away a 2-0 lead against Luton Town to draw 2-2 last weekend. Benefitting from Toulouse's brave approach in the Europa League, Liverpool should not expect such an emphatic scoreline against a Forest side bound to sit back and soak up pressure, but three points ought to be theirs regardless.

Sure to be morally damaged by letting a two-goal lead slip against the newcomers last weekend, it could be Forest's turn to try to recover from a 2-0 deficit at Anfield, but Cooper's side should not repeat Luton's feats on Sunday.

为了在各项赛事中取得三连胜，利物浦将在周日回到英超赛场，届时诺丁汉森林将做客安菲尔德。

在周四的欧联杯比赛中，红军以5-1大胜图卢兹，而史蒂夫·库珀的球队在上周末对阵卢顿的比赛中丢掉了2-0的领先优势，最终以2-2战平。受益于图卢兹在欧联杯上的勇敢表现，利物浦不应该期望在面对森林队的比赛中取得如此明显的比分，但无论如何，三分应该是他们的。

上个周末，森林在对阵新来者的比赛中失去了两球的领先优势，这无疑是道德上的伤害，现在可能轮到森林在安菲尔德试图从0 - 2的落后中恢复过来，但库珀的球队不应该在周日重复卢顿的壮举。
