Nottingham Forest travel to Anfield this Saturday for a Premier League lunchtime clash against Liverpool, a match that will be broadcast live on USA Network in the United States. The game kicks off at 12:30 p.m. BST and marks Forest's first league outing under new manager Oliver Glasner.
Forest head to Merseyside looking to halt a run of two consecutive defeats. They lost 1-0 away to Leeds United in the Premier League last weekend before a 2-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur in the Carabao Cup. The club's current league standing is 15th, having taken just one point from their opening two matches with a draw and a loss. They have scored two goals and conceded three, leaving them with a minus one goal difference and five points behind early leaders Manchester City.
The broadcast details for this fixture were reported by www.google.com.hk. In the United Kingdom, the match is available only on TNT Sports. A TNT Sports spokesperson stated, "This Saturday lunchtime clash is exclusive to TNT Sports in the UK and is one of 52 games the network will be showing live this season." For viewers in the United States, the game will air on the USA Network.

This match represents a significant early test for Oliver Glasner's reign. The new boss will be eager to secure his first positive result and move the team up from 15th place in the standings. His opposite number, Liverpool's Andoni Iraola, is also seeking his first Premier League win as Reds manager after his side drew 2-2 with Newcastle United last weekend. Andoni Iraola said he "will be hoping to claim his first English Premier League win as Reds boss on Saturday."
The task at Anfield is formidable, but Forest will aim to build a platform for their next fixture, a home game against Tottenham Hotspur scheduled for September 5th. Tottenham currently sit 20th in the table, which could present an opportunity for Forest to collect points.
Liverpool's opening draw means they have two points from one game. Nottingham Forest's form reads DL from their two matches. The team's defensive record shows three goals conceded, an area Glasner will be focused on shoring up ahead of facing a potent Liverpool attack. Integrating new ideas and personnel will be key for Forest as they handle this tough early away trip.
