Wolves vs Nottingham Prediction & Betting Tips (6 January)

Wolverhampton is slowly emerging from the crisis since the arrival of its new coach, Vitor Pereira. Under his leadership, the team regained momentum, inflicting a heavy defeat on Leicester 0-3 last week, beating Manchester United 2-0 on Thursday on Boxing Day, and snatching a draw against Tottenham 2-2. These 7 points come at the right time after a dark series of 4 defeats against Bournemouth 2-4, Everton 4-0, West Ham 2-1 and Ipswich Town 1-2. The Wolves thus leave the relegation zone to climb to 17th place, one point ahead of the first relegation zone.

Nottingham surprises everyone! Considered a candidate for retention after a difficult 17th place last season, Nuno Espírito Santo's team now occupies 3rd place in the Premier League. A run of five consecutive victories against Manchester United 2-3, Aston Villa 2-1, Brentford 0-2, Tottenham 1-0 and Everton 0-2 allowed them to shine.

The big absence to report is that of Cunha, pillar of the Wolves attack, suspended for this match. Other players are also missing, such as Traoré, Sarabia, Mosquera, Lemina, Gonzalez and Kalajdzic, but their absence is anecdotal since they were already missing when these Wolves started to recover in the PL. Despite this, the Wolves will be able to count on the Dane Strand Larsen (6 goals and 2 assists in the Premier League) as well as on the brilliant form of Hwang, scorer in the last two meetings. This duo should compensate for the absence of Cunha up front.

Wolverhampton Nottingham Forest The Nottingham Reds still have to do without the long-term injured Danilo and Sangaré, who are still absent at the end of the year. New Zealand striker Chris Wood, author of 10 goals in the Premier League, should start, supported by attacking midfielder Gibbs-White (2 goals and 3 assists). Wingers Elanga (3 goals, 2 assists), Hudson-Odoi (2 goals) and key midfielder Anderson (5 assists) are also in the running.
