Arne Slot will be eager to return to winning ways as soon as possible following Liverpool's defeat to Nottingham Forest.

Steve Cooper's side defeated the Reds at Anfield on Saturday afternoon thanks to a brilliant strike from Callum Hudson-Odoi.

With Manchester City easing past Brentford at the Etihad Stadium to extend their perfect start to the Premier League campaign, Liverpool have been dealt a blow to their title chances.

The season is, of course, still in its infancy, and everything is still to play for, but Slot's side could soon rue dropping points on home turf.

The Reds may be disappointed with the result, but they must now turn their attention to a huge tie in the Champions League.

So, with that being said, the ECHO have looked at Liverpool's next five fixtures.

Not only is this a huge fixture for the history books, but it's also paramount that Liverpool return to winning ways as soon as possible.

With Liverpool hoping to rival Manchester City and Arsenal for the Premier League title, every game is a must-win.

Slot will certainly be looking forward to this one.

Bologna are an exciting side, but Juventus appointed Thiago Motta, who orchestrated their incredible qualification campaign, as head coach in the summer.
