Every match is very important now for Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool. If they lose a match then they probably won't have the chance to win the title. Liverpool now occupy the top spot in the points table. But if the team loses a match, then the top spot in the table will be lost, the team will move to the second or third place in the table.
They are very close with each other and lose one match means three points that are big enough in a tight race among three competitors. It's certainly that not all three clubs will win all their rest matches in this season so if a competitor makes a loss, they will still have chance to win the title. But they will need to perfection rest of their matches and their task will become harder a lot.
Liverpool are just 3 points ahead of third-placed Arsenal in the points table. So even if they lose a match, the Liverpool team will move from the first place in the table to the third place. But it is very difficult to maintain the winning streak in the Premier League. Here it is much more difficult to win every match consistently. But between Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal, the team that can maintain the most consistency will win the title.
Good news for Liverpool fans is that Darwin Nunez is back in the squad. However, Salah is not in the squad due to injury. Diogo Jota, Alexander Arnold and Alisson will also be left out of the squad. Even so, as Nunez returns to the squad. Liverpool's attack will be stronger today
Liverpool started to have more problems with their players and news about recoveries of Darwin is good for them. They also have to wait for Salah, Jota, Arnold and Alisson who are all important players in Liverpool.
These injuries can affect Liverpool performances in coming weeks and how Liverpool go through this period will decide they maintain their leading position or will have to give up against Manchester City and Arsenal. They actually wait for good news from Mohamed Salah as he is a most important player in their attacking system.
We thought Nottingham Forest was a weak opponent. But today Nottingham Forest players put up a strong resistance against Liverpool. In 60 minutes, Liverpool has not been able to score a goal yet. Liverpool players have 70% ball possession. Despite several good attacks, he has yet to score a single goal. They made 11 shots, but only one of them was on target. Nunez has just returned to the squad from injury. So Klopp didn't keep Nunez in his starting XI today. With the way Nottingham Forest's players are playing defensively, it is now more difficult for Liverpool's players to score.
