Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest LIVE: Premier League match stream, confirmed team news, lineups

Liverpool welcome Oliver Glasner’s Forest to Anfield this afternoon in their first home game of the Premier League season. Some eyebrows will have been raised as the Reds scrapped a point away at Newcastle last weekend, thanks to Dominik Szoboszlai’s 98th-minute penalty, and Andoni Iraola will be hoping for a less stressful day at the office this afternoon.

The new manager is unlikely to make too many changes to his team, though summer signing Victor Munoz could come in for Rio Ngumoha as reward for winning the equalising spot kick. Forest also have injury concerns, with Neco Williams a doubt after picking up a knock against Leeds on Tuesday but Morgan Gibbs-White has been passed fit after a knee problem.

Liam Delap could make his debut following his £45million move from Chelsea, while Liverpool will be looking for more from their frontman Alexander Isak, who struggled last Sunday in a very heated atmosphere at his former club.
