Liverpool got off to a rocky start to the season, narrowly avoiding defeat in stoppage time against a weakened Newcastle, tying the game 2-2 with a well-taken penalty kick by Szoboszlai. On the other hand, Nottingham suffered a bitter defeat to Leeds in their last match and is looking for a good result to get back on track and build confidence ahead of the tough stretch ahead.
In the same matchday, Coventry and Hull will face off in a clash between the two newly promoted teams. Coventry got off to a rocky start to the season, suffering a heavy 3-0 defeat at the hands of defending champions Arsenal, while the “Tigers” crushed Manchester United 2-0.
