Head coach Steve Cooper wants Nottingham Forest to match the fantastic City Ground atmosphere with a performance on the pitch against Liverpool on Saturday.
Reds fans have had little to cheer amid a poor run of form for Cooper’s side in the Premier League. But their support has been superb - most recently, making the long trip to Brighton and Hove Albion in numbers on Tuesday night and singing from the first minute until the last.
Cooper has underlined the role the crowd can again play at the weekend, as his team host Jurgen Klopp’s men. Forest pushed Liverpool hard in a pulsating FA Cup tie Trentside last season, but the Welshman has acknowledged the circumstances are very different this time around, following a summer squad overhaul and on the back of nine league games without a win.
