Game Prediction
A match between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Nottingham Forest will be held in the 20th round of the English Premier League on January 6, 2025. The hosts are in the danger zone and the points will come in handy, but the guests do not intend to lose their sensationally high place in the standings.
Our prediction for the match Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Nottingham Forest
“The Wolves”, before the start of last season, had been left without Lopetegui. Still, O’Neil, who had replaced the coach on the eve of the start, even ensured progress: the team got 46 points, which allowed finishing in 14th position. A year ago, “the Foresters” fired Steve Cooper, who had raised the club from the Championship after a long break, and kept his footballers at a new level. However, it was with Nuno Espirito Santo that the club managed to finish in 17th place, avoiding relegation again (despite the fine in the form of 4 points).
Now the Portuguese specialist and his team are shocking the entire Foggy Albion. The club is above Manchester City and Aston Villa, not to mention Manchester United and Tottenham. It even managed to beat Liverpool, and the number of victories had reached 10 by Christmas. In January, the team played with a 2-0 score in the struggle with Everton. Speaking about the first 16 matches of the Premier League, “the Wolves” took a couple of victories and 11 points. And after a 1-2 result in the home confrontation with Ipswich, O'Neil was finally fired. Everything immediately and radically changed. Vitor Pereira made his debut with a rout of Leicester, and then his team scored a couple of unanswered goals in the game against Manchester United. And the struggle with Tottenham gave an opportunity to take a point – there happened a 2-2 draw.
The hosts have a negative goal ratio. Scoring 1.63 goals, they concede 2.21 goals per game. The sensationally successful guests are generally playing boringly. Wood and the company score 1.37 goals per meeting, conceding 1 goal on average in return.
