Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest the outcome was in favor of home side.
Jota, Nunez and Salah on target as Liverpool extend their winning run to three matches with a routine 3-0 Premier League win over Nottingham Forest in an emotionally-charged Anfield battle.
The host who had momentarily been top of the table last weekend after their 2-0 win in the Merseyside derby, took their time to break down a resolute Forest low block, with clear-cut chances in the early exchanges few and far between.
It was Darwin Nunez just shy of the half-hour who ignited the game’s spark,
as his powerful effort from an acute angle was well saved by Matt Turner at his near post after an unfortunate slip from Murillo, the left-sided Brazilian centre-back.
Just moments later, it was another Murillo mistake that saw Liverpool take the lead, as a swift counter-attacking move, aided by a rash decision by the Forest defender to step out to meet the onrushing Dominik Szoboszlai.
The Hungarian looked wide to his right, finding Mohamed Salah, before the Egyptian drove inside and slipped a ball into the right channel for Nunez to scamper after.
The Uruguayan’s firm strike was parried by Turner, but the rebound was gobbled up by Diogo Jota, on hand to score again for Liverpool after netting against Toulouse in midweek.
Just four minutes later, Nunez turned goalscorer, as another clean counter-attack did the damage.

Again, penetrating a stretched visiting defence down the right flank, Salah and Szoboszlai combined again, with the right-winger giving it back to the midfielder, who had made the underlapping run.
His cut-back was bundled into the roof of the net by Nunez, who had made the near-post dart, and Jurgen Klopp’s Reds had doubled their money.
Turner produced a strong pair of saves within a minute of each other, first denying Ryan Gravenberch from the edge of the area, before keeping out a Szboszlai drive from a slightly more central area.
The hosts pushed for a third after the break, with Salah especially keen to get on the scoresheet, but the closest they came was through substitute Harvey Elliott,
whose side-footed effort just after the hour was deflected behind by the recovering Ola Aina.
Salah finally got his goal 13 minutes from time as a long punt forward from Szoboszlai was not dealt with by either Harry Toffolo or Matt Turner, who had raced out of his goal to clear.
Neither the goalkeeper nor the left wing-back communicated properly, and the ball’s bounce fell kindly for the lurking Salah, who accepted the gift and slotted into the unguarded net.
Former Manchester United winger Anthony Elanga rattled the crossbar with five minutes to go as Forest threatened to taint Alisson’s clean sheet, but the hosts held on for a three points that takes them to third in the table.
