Another fan saw a draw as a realistic outcome, adding: “There’s a chance they’ll win, but I reckon a draw would be a decent result. It’s possible they’ll go all the way. There’s definitely a chance of Champions League.”

Luca Price and Bill Marsden were more confident: “Oh, easy, easy! 2-0. Elanga and CHO [Callum Hudson-Odoi].”

As for the league, they added, “I want to say second, but I think maybe third. Champions League place.”

Gemma and Hadley offered a more cautious outlook. Hadley predicted a narrow 2-1 loss but emphasized the new manager’s positive impact, saying, “He’s really brought all the players together.”

The Chamberlain family expressed confidence in Forest’s chances: “I think we’ll be the only team to double them this year. Liverpool are having a little bit of a dip… I think it’ll be 2-1 to Forest or 1-0.”

Albert and Kobby believe in an upset. “I want us to get at least a draw, I want us to cause an upset, and we can. We’ve got the players. Elanga, Hudson-Odoi, Chris Wood, Gibbs-White - they all need to start. It’s possible we can win the league.”

David Strickland expressed cautious optimism. “I’m nervous. I don’t want to say ‘Manager of the Month Curse,’ but last time we won that, we lost to Fulham and Arsenal. Liverpool are probably more nervous than us. If we turn up and perform, we can beat them, but I’d take a point right now. If we beat Liverpool, we have to be considered title contenders.”

With the Forest faithful rallying behind their team, Tuesday’s match promises to be a thrilling showdown. Whether cautious or confident, fans are united in their hope for another memorable performance.

Tuesday's game will be broadcast live on TNT Sport for supporters in the UK.

The match will also be available to watch via local Premier League TV rights holders in countries outside of the United Kingdom.
