WOLVES: CURRENT FORM - WWLLL
Wolves' current form goes to show just how unpredictable and competitive the Premier League is. The home team head into this match against Nottingham Forest on the back of two wins in a row. Wolves beat Manchester United 2-0 on the 26th of December.
Before this game, they smashed Leicester City 3-0. Prior to this match, they lost four matches in a row. Wolves also lost 2-1 against West Ham United and they were put to the sword with a 4-0 loss against Everton.
KEY PLAYERS TO WATCH
- Rayan Ait-Nouri: The Algerian defender is known for his attacking ability. Rayan Ait-Nouri often finds himself in advanced attacking positions which makes him a decent option as an Anytime Goalscorer.
- Andre: The Brazilian is a ball-winning midfielder and Nottingham Forest have not played against Andre in a Wolves jersey. Wolves' new player could bring something new to his team's playing style which could cause all sorts of problems for their opponents in this match.
- Hwang Hee-chan: The South Korean forward is a dynamic player who can run and dance his way past opponents with incredible speed on the ball. Hwang Hee-chan has good technical and tactical skills that could cause all sorts of problems for Nottingham Forest.
WOLVES TEAM NEWS
Wolves will be without the likes of Pablo Sarabia, Boubacar Traore, and Sasa Kalajdzic who are all sidelined through injury. The good team news for Wolves is that Hee-Chan Hwang and Jorgen Strand Larsen look set to play in this match, and they will bolster Wolves' attack.
NOTTINGHAM FOREST: CURRENT FORM - WWWWW
Nottingham Forest have won five matches in a row. The winning run started with a 3-2 victory against Manchester United on the 7th of December. This was followed by a 2-1 victory against Aston Villa, a 2-0 win against Brentford, a 1-0 victory against Tottenham Hotspur and they also beat Everton 2-0 on the 29th of December.
KEY PLAYERS TO WATCH
- Anthony Elanga: The Swedish forward has an exciting style of play, and he is always looking to increase the tempo and the speed of play. Anthony Elanga is full of innovative ideas, and he is also a great team player and a capable goalscorer.
- Elliot Anderson: The English midfielder is a key player for Nottingham Forest. Elliot Anderson is an all-action player, and he is quick and skilful on and off the ball. We think that Anderson is worth a punt as an Anytime Goalscorer in this game.
- Morgan Gibbs-White: The Nottingham Forest midfielder likes to dictate play from the edge of the box. Morgan Gibbs-White is an attacking player, and he will look to find the back of the net in this match against Wolves.
NOTTINGHAM FOREST TEAM NEWS
Nottingham Forest also have their share of worries heading into this game with the likes of Ibrahim Sangare and Danilo both set to miss this game due to injury. In more positive team news for Forest, Chris Wood and Morgan Gibbs-White will be looking to put on a show for their team with plenty of attacking intent.
