Nottingham Forest continued their impressive Premier League form with a commanding 3-0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux Stadium.
The win marked Forest’s fifth in 18 encounters against Wolves, closing the head-to-head gap between the two sides.
Morgan Gibbs-White silenced the hostile crowd in the 7th minute, finishing off a swift counter-attack orchestrated by Anthony Elanga. Gibbs-White’s first-time strike against his former club set the tone for the match.
Callum Hudson-Odoi was pivotal in Forest’s second goal. In the 44th minute, he surged down the left flank, leaving Matt Doherty trailing before delivering a precise cutback to Chris Wood, who slotted home with ease. The English-Ghanaian winger’s pace and vision troubled the Wolves defense all night.
Forest sealed their triumph deep into stoppage time. Hudson-Odoi’s cross-field pass found James Ward-Prowse, who unselfishly set up Taiwo Awoniyi to tap into an empty net.
Despite Wolves’ 61% possession and higher expected goals, Forest’s clinical finishing secured the points. They now face Liverpool on January 14th, riding high on this emphatic result.
