- Nikola Milenkovic – 1+ foul committed: Milenkovic is likely to spend plenty of time defending Liverpool’s movement around the box. Against quick combinations and runners between the lines, one mistimed challenge is a very realistic route to this landing.
- Ryan Gravenberch – 1+ foul won: Gravenberch regularly receives the ball in central areas where Forest will look to stop Liverpool progressing. His ability to carry through midfield makes him a natural candidate to draw at least one foul.
- Cody Gakpo – 1+ shot on target: Gakpo should get opportunities from Liverpool’s sustained attacking pressure, particularly cutting inside or arriving into shooting positions. We only need one effort to test the goalkeeper.
- Dominik Szoboszlai – 1+ foul committed: Szoboszlai’s pressing and defensive work can bring him into plenty of challenges in midfield. With Forest looking to break through those areas, one foul across the full match looks a sensible line.
