Bookmaker Ratings Prediction One: Match outcome: Wolves to win — 2.81
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Two: To qualify: Wolves — 1.94
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Three: Both teams to score: YES — 1.89
Although Wolves had only won on of their last four matches under new boss Julen Lopetegui, the Wanderers have been putting out top performances that could have ended in wins had they played against average sides. Hence expecting them to beat Nottingham Forest, who only won one of their last four games.
Because I feel Wolves are likely to win this game, the Wanderers are expected to reach the last four of the Carabao Cup either with a win at full-time or penalty shootout.
managed one clean sheet in one of their last four matches. Wolves conceded at least one goal in each of their last four games, hence expecting both sides to get on the scoreboard.
The Tricky Trees were inconsistent in their last four matches, having managed one win, two defeats and one draw across all competitions, including their 4-1 defeat to Blackpool last weekend in the FA Cup.
The Wanderers are playing well under new boss Julen Lopetegui but haven’t gotten the results that matched their performances. They held Liverpool to a 2-2 draw at Anfield and will look to go past Nottingham in the Carabao Cup.
Both teams are somewhat in similar form but Wolves have played some exciting football. The Wanderers will likely win the game, thanks to their new boss’s influence.
Get Rich Quick
Although both teams are likely to get on the scoreboard, there’s a chance we could see a tight win for Wolves.
There’s a belief that Wolves would go through, hence back them to either win or draw at Nottingham.
