Confirmed Lineups: Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest (Apr, 2023)

Fbl Eng Pr Liverpool Nottingham Forest

Liverpool’s Starting XI remains unchanged for the third straight match. The only difference is that Joe Gomez comes to the bench for the injured Roberto Firmino. Mohomed Salah has a chance to move into 6th all-time on the Reds scoring list with a goal, passing Robbie Fowler. With the start, he has ample opportunity to do so. 

Surprisingly for Nottingham Forest, leading scorer Brennan Johnson will be on the bench to start the match.

LFC Globe Verdict

The current Starting XI for Liverpool have found their rhythm. Jürgen Klopp said in his press conference that Trent Alexander-Arnold playing higher up the pitch is a big reason why. I think the subs could see some extended minutes today as the Reds will need to avoid heavy legs with 3 matches in the span of 8 days.
