Wolves are without suspended striker Matheus Cunha as they host in-form Nottingham Forest at Molineux on Monday evening.

Cunha has been in great form this season but was banned after his clash with Ipswich staff on December 14.

Nottingham Forest are on a fine run of five consecutive wins and a sixth would see them move level on points with Arsenal in second.

How far can they finish this season?

Jorgen Strand Larsen has scored in six Premier League games this season, but Wolves have not won any of them. The tall forward will be hoping to end this streak as he leads the line in Cunha’s absence.

Pedro Lima and Tommy Doyle also start – a debut for Lima – while Matt Doherty leads the side with Mario Lemina on the bench.

Doherty looks to play in central defense with Lima in full-back.

Wolves XI: José Sá, Rayan Aït-Nouri, Santiago Bueno, Matt Doherty, Rodrigo Gomes, João Gomes, Tommy Doyle, Pedro Lima, Hwang Hee-Chan, Gonçalo Guedes, Jørgen Strand Larsen

Nottingham Forest team news

Chris Wood leads the attack for a seemingly settled Forestry side led by former Wolves man Morgan Gibbs-White. Murillo returns to defense.

Forest have 20 points more at this stage of the season than last year and pose a serious charge to European football.
