Forest favoured to claim repeat three points
After losing 3-0 at Wolves, Nuno Espirito Santo faces another of his former clubs on Tuesday when 18th-placed West Ham host Nottingham Forest, who are a place and four points outside the bottom three.
The Hammers, who also lost at Molineux in the EFL Cup in August, became the first team to be defeated by Wolves in the league when they were outclassed on Saturday, and have failed to win their last nine games.
Forest have lost their last four, most recently being crushed 3-1 at Aston Villa and Sean Dyche’s early success appears to be waning.
However, they face a poor Hammers side at the London Stadium, where the atmosphere could again turn sour, with fans frustrated by the team and at odds with the board.
Wolves scored their opening goal after four minutes, so a similarly fast start could set Forest up for a victory against one of their direct relegation rivals.

A goal involvement for Gibbs-White?
Forest won 2-1 at the London Stadium last May, with their opening goal coming courtesy of Morgan Gibbs-White.
The attacking midfielder struggled under Nuno at Wolves but became a firm favourite when they were reunited at the City Ground.
Gibbs-White ended his eight-game run without a goal with a lovely dinked finish in Saturday’s defeat at Villa.
His ability to burst from midfield can expose a West Ham defence so often caught square, while he also netted last season at the London Stadium, picking off the Hammers easily after they tried to play out from the back.
The 25-year-old may not have had his best season, but he is often at the heart of his team’s attacking play and could hurt the Hammers.

Forest can dominate in Stratford
West Ham won August’s reverse fixture 3-0 and four of their last five games have featured three or more goals.
Backing 2+ goals in the game is a good place to begin a bet builder, while Neco Williams has tackled 38 dribblers this season, so he is worth looking at to make two or more tackles.
Forest have had 109 corners to West Ham’s 106, and with them expected to be in the ascendancy, can sneak the corner count on Tuesday.
Finally, the Hammers’ 109 shots on target conceded is the most in the Premier League, and that is another metric the visitors can top.
