Nottingham Forest vs Wolves Preview

  • Forest to win
  • Gibbs-White to score or assist

Introduction: A Clash of Contrasting Starts

As Nottingham Forest and Wolves prepare to face off in the third round of the Premier League season, the two Midlands rivals find themselves in starkly different situations.

Nottingham Forest, who narrowly avoided relegation last season, have made an impressive start to the new campaign, remaining unbeaten with a win and a draw. Meanwhile, Wolves have struggled, losing both of their opening matches and conceding eight goals in the process.

This match promises to be a fascinating encounter as both teams aim to build momentum.

Nottingham Forest’s Strong Start: Building on Early Success

Nottingham Forest have surprised many with their unbeaten start to the Premier League season, a stark contrast to their battle for survival last term.

Under the guidance of Nuno Espírito Santo, who has a strong connection with Wolves, having previously guided them to Championship glory and European qualification, Forest fans are beginning to dream of a similar rise.

Espírito Santo has a solid record against his former club since leaving, with two wins and a draw, further fueling optimism among the Tricky Trees faithful.

However, despite their good form, a draw might be the more realistic outcome based on recent history.

The last four head-to-heads (H2Hs) between these two teams have all ended in stalemates after 90 minutes, with Forest taking the lead in each but failing to secure victory. Another tight contest could be on the cards as Forest looks to extend their unbeaten run.

Wolves’ Woes: Seeking Redemption

Wolves have endured a nightmare start to the season, suffering defeats in their first two matches and conceding a staggering eight goals, including a 6-2 thrashing at the hands of Chelsea. It was the first time since 2007 that Wolves had conceded six goals in a league match at home.

Manager Gary O’Neil expressed his frustration, calling the second-half performance against Chelsea “unacceptable,” and there will be an expectation for his team to respond with a stronger showing at the City Ground.

Despite their poor form, Wolves can take solace in their recent record at Nottingham Forest’s home ground, where they have gone unbeaten in their last six league visits (W3, D3).

However, extending that streak will be challenging, given their current struggles on the road. Wolves have lost five of their last seven Premier League away games (D2), with all five losses coming by at least a two-goal margin.

Players to Watch: Key Influencers on the Pitch

Morgan Gibbs-White (Nottingham Forest): Once a fan favourite at Wolves, Morgan Gibbs-White will be eager to make an impact against his former club.

Known for scoring late in matches, his last 11 goals for Forest have all come after the 40th minute, including the winner against Southampton last weekend. His ability to deliver in crucial moments could prove decisive once again.

Matheus Cunha (Wolves): Matheus Cunha will be a player to watch for Wolves, especially after his notable performances in previous meetings with Forest.

Cunha scored before half-time in both H2Hs last season and found the net in the first half against Chelsea in Wolves’ recent defeat. His early influence in games could be crucial for Wolves as they look to turn their season around.

Conclusion: A Critical Early-Season Encounter

As Nottingham Forest and Wolves meet at the City Ground, the match holds significant importance for both teams.

Forest will aim to continue their unbeaten start and build on their early-season success, while Wolves desperately need to put points on the board after a dismal start.

With key players like Morgan Gibbs-White and Matheus Cunha in the spotlight, this Midlands derby promises to be a tightly contested and intriguing affair.
