CITY GROUND, NOTTINGHAM — Liverpool are the first of the Premier League title chasers in action this weekend when they travel to relegation-threatened Nottingham Forest.
Manchester City host Manchester United in the derby at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday, while Arsenal must wait until Monday for a visit to Sheffield United, meaning Jurgen Klopp's team have the opportunity to put a marker down.

6th minute: Yates shoves Clark over. Very much a "welcome to the big football, youngster" challenge. But it's a daft one as Liverpool have a free-kick in a half-decent position. Robertson's ball in his cleared. He has another go and the offside flag goes
