Nott'm Forestvs.Liverpool

sportsmole.co.uk, 12 January 2025, 07:43
An extremely stern examination of Liverpool's Premier League title credentials awaits on Tuesday night, when the Reds visit high-flying Nottingham Forest at the City Ground.

Arne Slot's men maintained their six-point advantage at the summit despite being held to an unexpected 2-2 draw by Manchester United last weekend, and the Merseyside giants crucially still have a game in hand on their title rivals.

Liverpool also made light work of Accrington Stanley in Saturday's FA Cup third-round showdown, triumphing 4-0 at Anfield on a day where Trent Alexander-Arnold struck a stunning long-range goal.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Forest, who eased to a 2-0 success over Luton Town in their cup opener on January 11.

Joe Gomez

Status: Out

Type of injury: Hamstring

Possible return date: February 1 (vs. Bournemouth)

As Dominik Szoboszlai and Jarell Quansah were both fit to start against Accrington, Joe Gomez is the Reds' only injury absentee at the minute; the English defender is expected to be out until February with the hamstring problem he picked up against West Ham United last month.

LIVERPOOL'S SUSPENSION LIST

Darwin Nunez

Return date: January 18 (vs. Brentford)

Misfiring striker Darwin Nunez was cautioned for the fifth time in the Premier League season during the draw with Man United, meaning that he will serve a one-match ban at the City Ground.
