Liverpool have a mountain to climb in order to qualify for the Champions League next season, but grabbing three more points against Nottingham Forest would be a perfect way to continue.
A sublime attacking performance against Leeds United at Elland Road on Monday night helped the Reds get back to winning ways. However, they remain outsiders in the push for a top-four finish.
As things stand, Jurgen Klopp and his squad are nine points behind fourth-placed Newcastle with only eight fixtures to play. Here is how you can follow the Forest showdown;
What time does Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest kick-off?
Liverpool welcome their old rivals to Anfield on Saturday afternoon for a 3pm start.
Is Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest on TV? What is 3pm blackout?

What is the early Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest team news?
Speaking on Friday afternoon, Klopp revealed that Roberto Firmino could be missing for three matches after picking up a groin injury. Firmino will definitely be absent on Saturday afternoon due to that setback.
As for Forest, meanwhile, they will be without NINE players for the game after Steve Cooper gave an update from the treatment table during his press conference. However, there is better news when it comes to Taiwo Awoniyi (groin) and Moussa Niakhate (hamstring), who should both feature.
Cheikhou Kouyate, Gustavo Scarpa, Serge Aurier, Ryan Yates, Chris Wood, Willy Boly, Dean Henderson, Omar Richards and Giulian Biancone are unavailable to Cooper with various problems.
