Line-ups confirmed as Forest look to go level on points with Arsenal
Wolves are without suspended striker Matheus Cunha when they welcome Nottingham Forest to Molineux on Monday night.
Cunha has been in brilliant form this season but was suspended after clashing with Ipswich staff on 14 December.
Nottingham Forest are on a good run of five consecutive wins, and a sixth would see them level on points with Arsenal in second place.
How high can I finish this season?
Wolves team news
Jorgen Strand Larsen has scored in six Premier League games this season, but Wolves haven’t won a single one. The big forward will be hoping to end that streak as he leads the line in Cunha’s absence.
Pedro Lima and Tommy Doyle also start – a debut for Lima – while Matt Doherty captains the side with Mario Lemina on the bench.
Doherty looks to play at centre-back with Lima at full-back.
