Wolves vs Nottingham Forest Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Steve Ashfield in Premier League Predictions
It's unlikely the most confident of Nottingham Forest supporters would have anticipated their success this season. Forest come into this match third in the Premier League and travel to Wolverhampton Wanderers who are 17th in the table. It's a big night for Forest manager Nuno Esprito Santo who used to be in charge at Molyneux. He did well for Wolves, not so well at Tottenham but has worked wonders with Forest since taking over last season.
Wolves are a place and a point above the relegation zone and have the joint worst defence in the Premier League. Vitor Pereira is now in charge of Wolves and they come into this game unbeaten in their last three league games. That includes a home win over Manchester United and Wolves will be hoping to continue their improvement and move away from the bottom three in the Premier League. Can they do that? Read our match prediction.

Wolves & Nottingham Forest Squad Analysis
Wolves will be without top scorer Matheus Cunha for this match. He begins the two-match suspension that was given to him after pleading guilty to a misconduct charge after what happened against Ipswich Town.
Larsen is likely to start this match.
The home side will certainly miss the goals he's been scoring for them this season. He's likely to be replaced by Jorgen Stand Larsen who came on as sub and scored at Wolves.
They already have several players on the sidelines. Enso Gonzalez, Yerson Mosquera, Boubacar Traor, Pablo Sarabia, Sasa Kalajdzic and Toti Gomes are all out injured. Mario Lemina also has what has been described as a "small injury" and Andre is another doubt for Wolves after being injured against Tottenham.
Nottingham Forest have no new injury blows ahead of this away game against Wolves. They remain without Ibrahim Sangare and Danilo but more recent injuries seem to be clearing up for them.
Callum Hudson-Odoi and Murillo are both exepected to be fit for this match and Ryan Yates has served his suspension.

Our Wolves vs Nottingham Forest Prediction
Nottingham Forest are dreaming of European football after their highly impressive start to the season. They were expected to slip down the table and did have a bad patch. However, they have come through that and keep on winning at the moment.
Wolves are out of the bottom three but still in plenty of trouble. The ineptitude of the current bottom three may well keep them safe. Wolves have shown improvement since their managerial change but are without Cunha and several other players.
Our main Wolves v Nottingham Forest prediction is Nottingham Forest to win.
