Nottingham Forest will be hoping to continue their unexpected title challenge on Sunday as they host basement boys Southampton.
Nuno Espirito Santo's men looked on course to win against league leaders Liverpool after Chris Wood's earlier strike, but Diogo Iota's second-half header meant Forest had to settle for a deserved 1-1 draw.
With just six points taken so far this season, Southampton looked doomed. At Old Trafford on Thursday, Ivan Juric put in a battling display against Manchester United and was on course for a memorable win, only for Amad Diallo to score a stunning hat-trick on 12 minutes to turn the score in United's favour.
Nottingham Forest take on Southampton on Sunday 18 January at the City Ground, kick-off 2pm GMT local time. That makes a 9am ET or 6am PT start in the US and Canada, and a 1am AEDT Starting in Australia in the early hours of Monday morning.

How to watch the 2024-25 Premier League season from anywhere with a VPN
If you find you can't watch EPL matches locally, you may need a different way to watch the games — that's where using a VPN can help. A VPN is also the best way to prevent your ISP from throttling your game-day speeds by encrypting your traffic, and it's also a great idea if you're traveling and find yourself connected to Wi-Fi and want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.
With a VPN, you can virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to access the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors' Choice, ExpressVPN, make this really easy.
Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you're streaming. You should make sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: even when VPNs are legal, a streaming service can terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing properly enforced blackout restrictions.

Quick tips for streaming the Premier League using a VPN
- With four variables at play – your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN – your experience and success in streaming EPL matches may vary.
- If you don't see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the “city or country search” option.
- If you're having trouble downloading the game after turning on your VPN and setting it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try to quickly fix it. First, log in to your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs — like Roku — don't have VPN apps that you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you'll have to install a VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you're using (like your phone) so that every device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location.
- All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing a VPN on your router. In some cases with Smart TV services, after you install the sports app on a cable network, you will be asked to verify a numeric code or click on a link sent to your email address in your Smart TV file. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help, as both devices will appear to be in the correct location.
- And remember, browsers can often give away location despite using a VPN, so make sure you're using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We usually recommend Brave.
