Sean Dyche’s Nottingham Forest simply have to beat bottom club Wolves on Wednesday to give themselves a little bit of breathing space above the relegation zone.
WATCH — Nottingham Forest v Wolves
Forest lost 3-1 at relegation rivals Leeds on Friday and given West Ham’s win at Burnley on Saturday, all of a sudden they are just three points above the bottom three. Forest are going well in the Europa League but staying in the Premier League is Dyche’s main aim and they just have to beat Wolves. If they do they then drag Spurs into the relegation scrap too.
Rob Edwards’ side sit on eight points and are 18 points behind Forest, and safety, ahead of this game. They lost 3-1 at home to Chelsea on Saturday as they gave away two penalty kicks in the first half and were their own worst enemies once again. Wolves never give up but they’re making too many big mistakes.
