Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Nottingham Forest could line up for Tuesday's Premier League showdown with Liverpool at the City Ground.

Nottingham Forest head coach Nuno Espirito Santo should have all but one of his players available for Tuesday's blockbuster Premier League battle with leaders Liverpool at the City Ground.

The Tricky Trees welcomed Danilo back from his serious ankle injury in Saturday's 2-0 FA Cup third-round win over Luton Town, meaning that Ibrahim Sangare (hamstring) is the hosts' only absentee at present.

Santo could afford to make sweeping changes for the visit of the Hatters, but the Forest boss will revert to his strongest XI on Tuesday, starting with Matz Sels replacing Carlos Miguel in goal.

The Belgian shot-stopper is out to record his 10th Premier League clean sheet of the season in midweek, where he will be protected by the ever-impressive pairing of Murillo and Nikola Milenkovic.

Ex-Liverpool man Neco Williams has forced his way into Santo's first XI and will likely line up against his former club on Tuesday, as Ola Aina occupies the right flank amid links with Manchester City.

Ryan Yates's reward for scoring on Saturday will likely be a demotion to the bench as Elliot Anderson and Nicolas Dominguez link arms in the middle, just off Morgan Gibbs-White in the number 10 slot.

Callum Hudson-Odoi's strike propelled Forest to a momentous 1-0 win at Anfield earlier in the season, and the Englishman joins Chris Wood and Anthony Elanga in a fearsome Forest front three.

Nottingham Forest possible starting lineup:
Sels; Aina, Milenkovic, Murillo, Williams; Anderson, Dominguez; Elanga, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi; Wood
