Top Two Predictions for Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool
Liverpool are the big favourites to progress through to the Semi-Finals of the FA Cup this weekend as they go up against Championship opposition in the form of Notts Forest. These two sies haven't gone head-to-head since 1999 and this was one of the stand out fixtures during the late 1970s when both teams were winning European trophies.
Contents
BTTS
We're expecting goals at both ends of the pitch in this game just as there have been in six of the last seven meetings between Notts Forest and Liverpool. Liverpool have a strong defensive record but are likely to rotate their usual starting eleven as they have done in each of the previous rounds of this competition. Both teams have scored in three of Forest's last four outings and the hosts have only failed to score in one of their last six matches. Liverpool have found the back of the net in each of their last five games in all competitions, so you can see why we're not backing either side to keep a clean sheet on Sunday.
Takumi Minamino to Score
Japanese international, Takumi Minamino has scored in each of the last two rounds of the FA Cup and top scores in this competition for Liverpool this season with 3-goals. The Japanese forward is likely to come into the starting eleven to add some fresh legs to Liverpool's attack and we're backing him to score against Notts Forest on Sunday.

Forest up against the odds this weekend
Nottingham Forest went in at the break a goal down at home to QPR in midweek but recovered really well in the second forty-five to win the game comfortably. Spence got the hosts back onto level terms in the 55th-minute and Yates put Forest 2-1 up with 7-minutes left on the clock. Johnson added a third goal in the 87th-minute as QPR threw men forward in search of an equaliser. That win keeps Forest in touch with the play-off places in 8th spot and they go into the Liverpool game with nothing to lose.
Notts Forest Predicted Lineup – Horvath, Figueiredo, McKenna, Worrall, Spence, Colback, Yates, Garner, Johnson, Zinckernagel & Davis
Liverpool and Arsenal played out a tight and tense opening 45-minutes at the Emirates on Wednesday night but in the second half, the visitors showed their true colours. Jota put Klopp's men in front in the 54th-minute and soon after, Firmino made it 2-0 and ended any hopes of an Arsenal comeback. Liverpool have already won one trophy this season and there is a lot of talk that the Reds could go all the way and secure the quadruple.
Liverpool Predicted Lineup – Kelleher, Gomez, van Dijk, Robertson, Alexander-Arnold, Henderson, Jones, Fabinho, Minamino, Firmino & Salah
