Team News



Wolves:
Wolves will miss the influential Matheus Cunha, serving a suspension for his conduct in December. Other notable absentees include Sasa Kalajdzic, Enso Gonzalez, Yerson Mosquera, Boubacar Traore, Pablo Sarabia, and Toti Gomes. Marino Lemina and Andre are doubtful.


Nottingham Forest:
Forest enjoys a relatively healthy squad. Callum Hudson-Odoi and Murillo are expected to return, while Ryan Yates is back from suspension. However, Danilo remains sidelined, and Ibrahim Sangare is still recovering from a hamstring issue.



Predicted Lineups

Nottingham Forest (4-2-3-1):
Sels; Aina, Milenkovic, Murillo, Williams; Yates, Anderson; Elanga, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi; Wood.

Wolves (4-3-3):
Sa; Semedo, Dawson, Kilman, Bueno; Gomes, Joao Moutinho, Neves; Neto, Guedes, Hwang.



Prediction

Both teams are in solid form, and this fixture has a history of ending in stalemates. Despite Wolves missing Cunha, their newfound confidence under Pereira will make them tough to beat. Forest’s versatility in attack under Nuno could see them take the lead, but Wolves’ resilience might balance the scales.

Predicted Scoreline: Wolves 1-1 Nottingham Forest
