Nottingham Forest vs Wolves Prediction & Match Preview

Nottingham Forest vs Wolves Match Preview

Nottingham Forest ended their three-game unbeaten run with a 1-3 defeat at Tottenham Hotspur last weekend. The loss in North London left them level on point with Luton Town un the danger zone. The Reds will hope to bounce back and grab precious salvation points this Saturday. They host mid-table Wolves in Matchday No 33 at The City Ground.

• Five of Nottingham Forest’s seven league wins have come at The City Ground this season.
• Wolves go into the tie off the back of three defeats and a draw in the last four matches in all competitions.
• None of the previous four H2H clashes saw three or more goals scored.

Chris Wood scored six days ago at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium but he also missed two sitters against Spurs on the occasion. The New Zealander has generally found himself in a lot of promising positions lately. He has been one of the main catalysts of Nottingham Forest’s growth in form in the last several weeks.

Wolves will not come into this in the highest of spirits. They fell to the bottom half of the Premier League standings after a 1-2 loss to West Ham last Saturday on the home patch. Gary O’Neil’s troops lost three and drew one of the last four games in all competitions.

• Each of the previous three head-to-head encounters between these two sides ended in a 1-1 draw.
• Nottingham Forest have 19 wins, 11 draws, and 10 defeats in the last 40 home clashes against Wolverhampton.
• None of the previous four H2H affairs saw three or more goals scored.

Nottingham Forest vs Wolves Prediction

The match carries a much bigger importance for the home team. Nottingham Forest desperately need points to move deeper into safe waters. They’ve generally done much better at home than on the road this season. Five of the Reds’ seven league wins have come at The City Ground. The run includes a 3-1 success against Fulham in the most recent home affair.

Wolves still have big problems with injured players. Their main attacking weapons missed yet another game last weekend. Hwang Hee-Chan and Pedro Neto are still sidelined while Matheus Cunha made a couple of successive appearances from the bench in the previous two rounds.

Wolverhampton are on a poor run of form with three defeats and a draw in the last four games in all competitions. We’ll back Nottingham Forest to claim much-needed points and get the win at the 2.20 odds.

Nottingham Forest played five consecutive games that ended with fewer than three goals in March. The last two matches produced four goals each. Nevertheless, this is exactly the type of game in which we might easily see the switch to the low-scoring contests.

Wolves have been struggling for goals of late. Neither of their previous two away outings saw three or more goals scored. Finally, none of the last four head-to-head encounters between these rivals provided three or more goals. You can back the Under 2.5 goals pick at the lucrative 2.00 odds.
