Nottingham Forest vs Wolves Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

Prediction published on 13/04/2024, 01:05  by Ian John in Premier League Predictions

Nottingham Forest face Wolves on Saturday in the Premier League (3pm Kick Off) with the home side very much in need of picking up something from this game. After losing in midweek to Tottenham by a 3-1 scoreline, that combined with a victory for Luton means that Forest are outside the relegation spots  by just a single point. A positive for Forest is Everton's additional 2-point penalty means they are now just two points ahead of both Forest and Luton, but the Toffees do have a game in hand over their two relegation rivals. Forest have lost just one of their last four, winning one and drawing two, but scoring just 40 goals this season from 32 games has been their real issue. They have lost three of their last seven at home, but those losses have come against Arsenal, Newcastle United and Liverpool. While they have won three of those games, drawing the other. 

Wolves felt aggrieved that they were denied a late equaliser against West Ham due a VAR decision going against them, not the first time that has happened to Gary O'Neil's team this season. The Black and Gold are without a win in their last three games, losing two of them and their last two wins have both come at home. They have lost two and drawn one of their previous three away games. Two of their last three and three of their last six games have seen under 2.5 goals scored. With no pressure on Wolves in terms of relegation threat, or realistic chances of European Football next season, they may be stubborn opponents for Forest to break down here.
