THE LOWDOWN
WOLVES
Under the management of Gary O’Neil, Wolverhampton Wanderers are performing above their pre-season expectations by ensuring they are not really close to the bottom three and the relegation zone. They begin the 16th match day of the 2023/24 Premier League campaign sitting 13th in the table with a hefty points gap.
They come into this one on the back of a 1-0 victory against Burnley at Molineux during the week with South Korea international, Hwang Hee-chan, notching his ninth goal of the season and his eighth in the Premier League this season. Wolves have managed five victories with three draws in their 15 matches so far this season.
NOTTINGHAM FOREST
At the time of writing, Steve Cooper just about remains in charge of Nottingham Forest but with the reputation of Evangelos Marinakis, the expectation is that the Welshmen will soon be given his marching orders from the City Ground after The Reds were thrashed 5-0 by Fulham at Craven Cottage on Wednesday evening.
Forest begin this weekend sitting 16th in the table and with a four-point lead over the bottom three and the relegation places. However, they have now suffered four successive defeats and managed just one win in 11 matches since winning at Stamford Bridge prior to the September international break.
THE TEAM NEWS
WOLVES
Gary O'Neil has several injury concerns for this weekend with the likes of Pedro Neto, Jonny and Joseph Hodge all remaining unavailable for the home team.
Wolves continue to sweat over the fitness of Rayan Ait-Nouri, although the full-back has a chance of featuring.
PREDICTED XI (3-4-3): Sa; Kilman, Dawson, T. Gomes; Semedo, Lemina, J. Gomes, H. Bueno; Hwang, Cunha, Sarabia
UNAVAILABLE: Jonny (Injured), Hodge (Injured), Neto (Injured)
QUESTIONABLE: Ait-Nouri (Injured)
NOTTINGHAM FOREST
It has been reported that Steve Cooper has just one game to 'save his job' but the former Swansea boss will be heading into the do or die game without his key striker, Taiwo Awoniyi, due to injury.
He does have just two injury concerns, though, as, alongside Awoniyi, Ivorian defender Willy Boly is the only other player that is missing for this weekend due to injury.
PREDICTED XI (4-2-3-1): Vlachodimos; Aina, Felipe, Murillo, Toffolo; Mangala, Sangare; Hudson-Odoi, Gibbs-White, Elanga; Wood
UNAVAILABLE: Boly (Injured), Awoniyi (Injured)

THE PREDICTION
Ahead of the campaign, these two were expected to be in the battle down at the bottom end of the table but thanks to the poor performances of the relegated teams, that battle appears to be non-existent at this stage. Wolves have found a way to get victories on a semi-consistent basis this season as they now welcome a Forest side that have a bizarre collection of players that seemingly gave up on Wednesday and such a quick turnaround leaves little for much improvement so a low-scoring home win would appear likely.
BETTING TIP: WOLVES TO WIN & UNDER 3.5 GOALS
