However, their mini unbeaten run is likely to come to an end against Liverpool, if Opta’s supercomputer is right.
Opta say that Forest have just 12.4% chance of picking up three points in gameweek 12 of 2025/26.
Meanwhile, Slot’s men have been handed a 71.1% chance of securing the victory on Saturday afternoon.
No side in the Premier League has a higher chance of winning this weekend, with Bournemouth (59.3% versus West Ham) the second most likely according to Opta’s model.
