Wolves vs Nottingham Forest Betting Tips: BTTS

Wolves went into the festive period in high spirits after showcasing an impressive resurgence in the closing weeks of 2024, recording outstanding back-to-back triumphs over Leicester (3-0) and Man United (2-0) before grabbing the huge 2-2 draw at Tottenham.

The timing of the form surge was ideal for the Molineux team, as their seven-point gain enabled them to start the new year above the relegation spots, but they only have a narrow one-point advantage over Ipswich, who are the first team below the red line.

Despite being positioned uncomfortably in the standings, Wolves have demonstrated remerkable offensive capabilities this season with 31 goals bagged, but their sore spot lies in a vulnerable defensive line that has leaked 42 times across 19 league games.

Simply put, entertainment is guaranteed when the Molineux residents are in action, as their average of 3,8 goals per game makes them the most prolific team in the Premier League, with 74% of their top-flight matches featuring golas at both nets.

Next up for them are Nottingham, a team that has presented itself as a true hit of the Premier League this year, reminding everyone of their golden era when they claimed the biggest trophies and wrote history in English football, though the question remains whether they can maintain this high level of play throughout the season and contend for domestic glory.

Only the unrelenting leaders Liverpool (45) and Arsenal (40) have harvested more points thant the Tricky Trees, who stand at 37 points after 19 fixtures, but they are now presented with a great chance to capitalize on the Gunners' slip-up in the form of a 1-1 draw at Brighton and move level on points with them.

Ahead of Monday's trip, Espirito's troops are riding a five-game winning streak and will aim to extend it here by utilizing their sharp attacking line that has netted 2+ in four of those five, although they may find it difficult to resist the attacking firepower of Wolves. All these factors are set to make the game at Molineux a thrilling one, with goals coming thick and fast at both ends of the pitch.

Wolves team news

Wolves have quite a long list of injured players, with Toti, Yerson Mosquera, Mario Lemina, Boubacar Traore, Enso Gonzalez, Pablo Sarabia, and Sasa Kalajdzic all confirmed to be out.

Due to his inappropriate behavior following his team’s 1-2 loss to Ipswich Town on December 14, Premier League has handed Matheus Cunha a two-match suspension, with his absence in the crucial match against Forest being a big blow.
