If you want to get the lowdown on this crucial clash, you’ve certainly come to the right place. Keep reading to find out what our predictive analytics model forecasts.

Following a four-point deduction, Nottingham Forest find themselves outside the relegation zone on goal difference, with only six matches remaining.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side appeared to have turned the tide in recent weeks, drawing with Luton Town and Crystal Palace before defeating Fulham 3-1 at the City Ground.

However, the Reds suffered a 3-1 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur last weekend, meaning they have managed to win just two of their previous 12 league games.

To make matters worse for Forest, they have lost seven of their last 11 home matches in the Premier League, picking up only three victories in that time.

In fairness, Wolves have also struggled for consistency of late, winning just one of their last five league matches while failing to win any of their previous three.

Following a 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa, the Wanderers were held to a 1-1 draw by Burnley before losing 2-1 to West Ham United last weekend.

Between December and February, Wolves took 10 points from a possible 12 on their travels, defeating Brentford, Chelsea and Spurs while drawing with Brighton.

However, Gary O’Neil’s side have taken a solitary point from their last three away games, conceding six goals in the process (2 goals per game).

Head-to-head: Interestingly, Nottingham Forest and Wolverhampton Wanderers played out three 1-1 draws in the Premier League between January and December 2023.

Looking at the wider H2H statistics, Wolves have lost just one of their previous 12 matches against Forest across all competitions.

Team news: Nottingham Forest look set to be without injured trio Taiwo Awoniyi, Nuno Tavares and Willy Boly for the foreseeable future.

As for Wolves, Pedro Neto, Hwang Hee-chan and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde are sidelined through injury, while Rayan Ait-Nouri is a doubt for Saturday’s clash.

When you couple Forest’s poor form with Wolves’ impressive recent record in this fixture, all the signs point towards an away win at the City Ground.

Forebet’s algorithm predicts that Wolverhampton Wanderers will score over 1.5 goals on their way to defeating Nottingham Forest.
