Nottingham Forest take on Wolves tonight knowing that anything less than a victory simply won’t do.
The Reds lost 2-0 to Brighton on Sunday, and the last thing that Forest want is to start another long winless run, much like what happened after winning on the opening day.
With Everton and Tottenham to come in the Premier League, this is a game that Forest have to look to be winning at all costs, with Wolves without a win yet in the Premier League.
Ahead of the game, we’ve looked at the potential team that Forest boss Sean Dyche might pick.
Predicted Nottingham Forest team vs Wolves
The Forest rearguard
Matz Sels will keep his place between the posts tonight and is established as the number one goalkeeper.
Across the back four, it’s hard to fathom anything other than one change, with Murillo replacing Morato from Sunday’s team.
Nicolo Savona, Neco Williams and Nikola Milenkovic should all start in their usual positions.
The Forest engine room
Again, there’s no real need for change here.
Elliot Anderson and Ibrahim Sangare are building up a very nice partnership, and as a result, it will likely mean the bench once again for Ryan Yates against Wolves.

Leading the Forest line
Igor Jesus is desperately seeking that maiden Premier League strike, and as a result, this might be the game to stick with him.
Behind him, we expect two changes tonight, with Omari Hutchinson and Callum Hudson-Odoi both coming in to start this game.
Morgan Gibbs-White will once again hope to keep his place in the team against his former club.
