I am worried about Wolves, who are still in trouble, but not as much as I am about Nottingham Forest. It really feels like Forest can only pick up points at home, which piles the pressure on them for fixtures like this. They lost their long unbeaten run at the City Ground against Newcastle last time out so this game feels even bigger.
Forest are hosting Wolves in a top-flight fixture for the first time since a 5-0 win in November 1983. Nottingham ForestNottingham Forest are winless in six Premier League games (D2, L4), having begun 2023 with a five-match unbeaten run in the division. They have conceded at least twice in five of those latest six fixtures. Forest's run of nine home matches without defeat in the top flight was ended by Newcastle last time out (W4, D5).
The Forest fans have got behind their side so well all season but the players will be really nervous now. It's the same for a lot of the teams down there of course, but we don't know how they will handle that. I don't see there being many goals - even one might be enough to decide things. Prediction: 0-1Sutton's full predictions v DMA'S frontman Tommy O'DellMATCH FACTSHead-to-headWolves could win three successive away league games against Nottingham Forest for the first time. They have taken 10 points from their four most recent visits to the City Ground. Forest's only victory in the past eight league meetings was by 2-0 away in the Championship in January 2018 (D2, L5). However, Nottingham Forest beat Wolves 4-3 on penalties after a 1-1 draw in their EFL Cup quarter-final home tie this January.
Steve Cooper's side have scored the opening goal in 10 of their 14 Premier League home games this season, a joint-high alongside Manchester City and Brentford. However, they've dropped points in five of those fixtures, more than any other side when scoring first at home. Forest can equal their club Premier League record of scoring in 13 consecutive home matches, set from December 1994 to May 1995.
