Paul Merson has predicted where Liverpool will win their Saturday match against struggling Nottingham Forest, which will take place

Paul Merson has predicted where Liverpool will win their Saturday match against struggling Nottingham Forest, which will take place at the City Ground.

This weekend, Liverpool travels to Nottingham Forest, a difficult journey because Manchester City and Arsenal are waiting to strike if the Reds make a mistake. Taiwo Awoniyi returned to haunt his former club last season, as Jürgen Klopp’s team lost 1-0 at the City Ground.

However, Liverpool has emerged as a different team this year and leads the Premier League going into this weekend’s games. With a win, Klopp’s team may move up to four points clear of City, who play on Sunday, and Arsenal, who play on Monday.

After going without 14 against Southampton in the middle of the week, Klopp may be able to add a few important players to his roster for the trip to Nottingham. During his news conference on Friday, the Reds manager hinted that Dominik Szoboszlai and Darwin Núñez were back in the running, but Mohamed Salah will be absent once more.

Núñez, Szoboszlai, and Wataru Endō

Paul Merson, a pundit for Sky Sports, thinks Liverpool might win at the City Ground in the end because to the players that are returning. “This is a hard game, but I think Liverpool could have a bunch of senior players back in the squad for this one,” he told Sportskeeda, projecting the visitors to win 2-1. “Núñez, Szoboszlai, and Wataru Endō expected to play some role in this game.”

“With the Manchester City match coming up, I doubt Klopp will rush his main players back, but he’ll have them ready in case this game doesn’t go as expected.

“With all due respect to them, Liverpool’s young players aren’t good enough to play against Man City, so it will be interesting to watch how Klopp approaches this game in terms of his lineup. Although I still predict a Liverpool victory, the Reds will not have an easy game.

In what may turn out to be a pivotal match in the title chase, Liverpool will also travel to Prague on Thursday night before City visits Anfield the following weekend. “I don’t think he is too far off,” Klopp said in his news conference, expressing optimism that Salah will be able to return for that match. He’s not going to be in the picture tomorrow. We had to leave from there. We said touch and go with Darwin and Dom. That doesn’t change with Mo. Perhaps next week. He is not yet returned, but he is on his way.”

According to Liverpool.com: Without several players who would make Klopp’s starting lineup, Liverpool faces a challenging assignment on Saturday. The Reds manager, though, is aware that his team cannot afford to lose ground and will not accept any justifications. On Monday night, Arsenal goes to struggling Sheffield United as City plays Manchester United at the Etihad. By the conclusion of the weekend, Klopp will hope his team is still at the top of the standings.

Ederson

Ederson, an Atalanta midfielder, is apparently a target for Manchester United, Liverpool, and Arsenal.

The Premier division’s biggest clubs have taken notice of the 24-year-old Brazilian as he has established himself as a dependable player in the Italian division. Tutto Atalanta reports that the midfield player might fetch a summer transfer fee of up to €45 million. It will be fascinating to see if Liverpool, Manchester United, or Arsenal are willing to pay a hefty price for him.

At the end of the current campaign, Manchester United needs to bring him in as a centre midfielder. Since joining the team, Sofyan Amrabat has mostly disappointed, and when his loan agreement expires, he will return to his native club.

Ederson might wind up being a great addition to the Red Devils. In addition to adding creativity and goals to the side, he will assist in managing the game’s speed. This season, he has six goals and one assist in all competitions.

Likewise, when Thiago Alcantara departs Liverpool in the summer, the team will want a central midfield player. By season’s end, the Spaniard’s contract will expire.

In the event that Thomas Partey chooses to leave Arsenal, Mikel Arteta will need to effectively replace him. In recent months, there have been rumours that the Ghanaian international wants to leave Arsenal.

It will be intriguing to watch where Ederson ends up, since he will undoubtedly be tempted to join a major Premier League club. Although the Brazilian might be able to recoup the investment in the upcoming seasons, the stated asking amount might end up being a bit of an issue.
