Arne Slot has outlined the task Liverpool face in Nottingham on Tuesday as he insisted high-flying Forest are genuine title challengers.
Liverpool are six points clear at the top of the table with a game in hand at the halfway stage but Slot, the club’s head coach, has warned the biggest hurdles are still to be cleared and is mindful of the threat Nuno Espírito Santo’s squad pose.
Forest are the only team to have beaten Liverpool in the Premier League this season - they won 1-0 at Anfield on September 14 - and if they were to do the double over the league leaders, it would have a significant impact on blowing the race to become Champions wide open.
