Arne Slot has declared that Nottingham Forest should be regarded as serious contenders for the Premier League title as he readies Liverpool for a challenging match at the City Ground on Tuesday. Forest's impressive performance this season has been highlighted by their remarkable defensive record, having not conceded a goal in the league since mid-December. This strong form has elevated their status within the league, prompting Slot to acknowledge their deserving place among the title challengers.
The teams met earlier in the season, with Forest securing a surprising 1-0 victory at Anfield in September. However, Slot emphasized that given Forest's subsequent rise in form, that result should not be viewed as an upset. As Liverpool prepares to face Forest, the stakes are high, and the match promises to be a significant test for both teams. Slot's comments reflect the growing respect for Forest's capabilities as they continue to make waves in the Premier League.
