A pivotal clash at both ends of the Premier League table takes place at the City Ground this Sunday, as Nottingham Forest hosts Liverpool. With Forest making a sudden managerial switch and Liverpool fighting to stay in the Champions League hunt, this fixture is far more than a routine away trip for the Reds.

This match marks the Premier League debut of Vítor Pereira as Nottingham Forest manager. The former Wolves boss replaced Sean Dyche earlier this week and enjoyed a dream start on Thursday, leading Forest to a 3-0 win over Fenerbahçe in the Europa League. Sitting just three points above the relegation zone, Pereira will be desperate to translate that European momentum into domestic safety.

Liverpool, led by Arne Slot, is seeking redemption. Despite sitting 6th and recently winning back-to-back games against Sunderland and Brighton, the memory of a 3-0 home defeat to Forest back in November still stings. With fourth-placed Manchester United only three points ahead, Slot knows any further dropped points could be fatal to their top-four ambitions.

Step-by-step VPN guide to watch Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool today

NordVPN

1. Download & Install: Sign up to ExpressVPN or another reputable VPN service (check out GOAL's guide here) and download the app on your device.
2. Connect to a Server: Open the app and select a server location where the match is being shown (e.g. if you are in the UK but want to watch a US stream, connect to a US server).

How to watch on the Big Screen

Watching on your phone or laptop is fine, but live sports belongs on the big screen. Here is how to get the VPN working on your TV:

• Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
• Apple TV, Roku & Consoles: These devices often don't support direct VPN apps. The easiest workaround is to use Smart DNS (usually found in your VPN account settings) or Mirror/Cast the stream from your VPN-connected phone or laptop to your TV.
