Prediction: 1-2
Wolves
City Ground will host Saturday’s Premier League game between Nottingham Forest and Wolverhampton, the two teams who are almost level on points in the standings. The Reds are only two points clear of the relegation zone, but given their difficulties at the back, home win should not be considered. The good news for the hosts is that Cheikhou Kouyate has overcome his injury, while Taiwo Awoniyi is a major doubt, and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
The Wolves, on the other hand, aim to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Newcastle and Leeds United, and we predict that they will take advantage of Forest’s shaky defence. Matheus Cunha is pushing for a start, while all Kalajdzic, Chiquinho, Jonny, Matheus, and Hwang are sidelined with injuries. Defender Hugo Bueno is a major doubt, and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
Highlighted Player (Jack Colback):
After spending nine years at Sunderland youth academy, Jack Colback signed a loan deal with Ipswich Town on 6 August, 2009. The left-footed midfielder, who is capable of playing at left back as well, made 37 appearances for the Championship side, scoring four goals in the English second tier.
Against all odds, Colback decided to sign for Sunderland’s bitterest rivals Newcastle United on 9 June, 2014 and it has to be noted he became the first player to move directly from Sunderland to Newcastle since 1998 when Lionel Perez did the same. In 2015 Sunderland fans created a sick banner depicting Colback hanging with a noose around his neck and that caused uproar on social media.
Colback and his teammates from Newcastle dropped to the Championship at the end of the 2015/2016 season, but he decided not to leave the club. Colback scored 5 goals in 64 appearances for Newcastle United in the Premier League. He is well known for his passing skills, he rarely gives the ball away and journalist often compare him with Italy ace Andrea Pirlo.
