Wolverhampton — Nottingham Forest Prediction, H2H and Probable Lineups — 3 December 2025
On December 3, 2025, in Matchday 14 of the English Premier League, Wolverhampton will host Nottingham Forest. The match is set to kick off at 20:30 Central European Time. Let’s take a closer look at the potential outcome of this clash.
Wolverhampton
Wolverhampton are enduring yet another unconvincing season. The team cannot find their game and are in terrible form. Their last win came back at the end of September, when they defeated Everton in the EFL Cup. Since then, they have failed to win again and are currently on a nine-match winless streak. The team has lost their last seven games, failing to score in their last four games.
After 13 matches, Wolverhampton have collected only 2 points and deservedly sit at the bottom of the table. With just 7 goals scored and 28 conceded, they have the weakest attack and the weakest defense in the league. In the EFL Cup, they have already been eliminated after losing to Chelsea. As for their home form, the team has lost three home matches in a row.
Their results at home against Nottingham Forest show an absolute balance: in the last six meetings, each team has two wins and two matches ended in a draw. Five of the last six clashes at Molineux have finished with under 2.5 goals.
Nottingham
Nottingham Forest are not showing the same bright football this season as they did last year. However, despite their terrible start to the campaign, the team has recently improved their results. In their latest match, they played at home against Brighton and lost 2–0. This defeat ended Nottingham’s five-match unbeaten run. Before that, the team had three consecutive wins in all competitions, including a very impressive 3–0 victory over Liverpool.
In the league table, Nottingham currently sit in 16th place with 12 points, only one point above the relegation zone. As for European competitions, the team confidently beat Malmö 3–0 at home in their most recent match and have managed to stabilise after a poor start in the Europa League. They are now in 16th place with eight points but still have a realistic chance of reaching the knockout stage.
Their away form, however, is far from convincing. This season, Nottingham have won only once on the road — the match against Liverpool. All other away games ended with four draws and four defeats.
Head-to-head against Wolverhampton in recent years has been quite balanced. The last five or six meetings have mostly ended in draws. In 5 of these 6 games, both teams scored. Nottingham did win one of those matches as well.
Probable Lineups
- Wolverhampton: Johnstone, Tchatchoua, Agbadou, Mosquera, Toti, Wolfe, Bellegarde, Andre, Joao Gomes, Aries, Larsen

Wolverhampton — Nottingham Prediction
Both teams enter this match after defeats in the previous round. For Nottingham, it was only their first loss in the last six matches, although the team still sits in the lower part of the table. Wolverhampton, however, are in a much worse situation. The Wolves cannot find their game at all, remain firmly at the bottom of the standings, and have the weakest attack and one of the weakest defenses in the league. Recent head-to-head meetings between these teams have been relatively balanced. Considering these factors — Wolves’ desire to finally break their long losing streak and Nottingham’s motivation to extend their strong head-to-head record — we expect an interesting and open match where both sides will have scoring chances. My bet for this match: Total Over 2 goals at odds of 1.53.
