Nottingham Forest scored twice at Anfield and left Liverpool in a "proper mess" at times before finally losing 3-2 at the weekend.
That 'proper mess' comment was an admission by Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp no less, and proved that Forest have it in them to cause even the best teams problems. Sadly, they also have a tendency to shoot themselves in the foot with some of their defending, as witnessed again and again on Merseyside.
It is now 11 games since their last Premier League victory, but Wednesday's visit of Brighton and Hove Albion to the City Ground brings new hope of a late push for Premier League survival.

Yes, the Seagulls are one of the surprise teams of the current campaign, pushing for a top-six finish and FA Cup semi-finalists. However, the manner of their Wembley defeat to Manchester United in Sunday's last-four clash offers Forest hope.
Brighton played 120 minutes and then went out on penalties six spot-kicks into the shoot-out - so hopefully, from a Forest perspective, leaving them drained both physically and mentally. Only time will tell.
What is certain, with just six games left to play, is that Forest need to make their move soon if their Premier League return after 23 years in exile is to be for no more than one season.
They are now second from bottom of the table on 27 points, with only Everton, Leicester City and Leeds United the realistically catchable teams above them.
