Stats

Wolves are unbeaten in 3 consecutive matches.
Wolves have drawn their last 5 against Nottingham Forest.
Nottingham Forest are unbeaten in their last 5 games.

Head to Head

Wolves have a 63-45 advantage against Nottingham Forest in 138 meetings with 30 draws. The sides drew 1-1 at the City Ground earlier this season.

Wolves Form

Wolves have climbed out of the Premier League’s bottom three since appointing Vitor Pereira as manager. The Portuguese coach replaced Gary O’Neil in December and Wanderers haven’t lost in their previous three.

The Midlands side started Pereira’s reign with a commanding 3-0 victory over fellow relegation candidates Leicester. They followed that result with a 2-0 home triumph against Man United.

The Old Gold almost made it three wins on the spin and led Tottenham twice before eventually drawing 2-2. Hee-Chan Hwang and a Spurs own goal put Wolves ahead before they conceded an equaliser early in the second period.

Wolves Injuries

Defenders Yerson Mosquera and Toti Gomes won’t feature here due to injury.

Forwards Pablo Sarabia, Sasa Kalajdzic and Enso González have injuries and are unavailable.

Midfield trio Matheus Cunha, Mario Lemina and Boubacar Traore are also injured and are set to miss out.

Nottingham Forest Form

Nuno Espirito Santo’s Nottingham Forest are third in the Premier League after going unbeaten in 15 of 19 games.

Forest have won five matches in a row - a record only matched by fellow top-four chasers Newcastle. The Reds beat Man United, Aston Villa, Brentford and Tottenham during their current winning streak.

Espirito Santo’s outfit added to their run of victories by cruising to a 2-0 win at Everton. Forest had 2.03 XG and goals from Chris Wood and Morgan Gibbs-White secured all three points.

Nottingham Forest Injuries

Defender Danilo and midfielder Ibrahim Sangare are ruled out here due to injury.

Verdict

Wolverhampton v Nottm Forest

Wolves are becoming harder to beat as they try to peel away from the relegation zone. Forest look difficult to stop and there is value on a draw between these in-form teams.
