Sky Sports pundit David Prutton says Nottingham Forest have done "solid business" in the January transfer window and expects them to climb further away from the Championship relegation zone.
The Reds travel to Wycombe on Saturday when they will be hoping to build on their victory against Coventry in midweek when they secured a 2-1 win at St Andrew's.
Manchester United loanee James Garner impressed on his debut following his switch from Old Trafford last weekend, while former Brighton striker Glenn Murray came on as a late second half substitute.
Both players were signed in the hope they can lead Forest to a comfortable end to the campaign and avoid another brush with relegation to League One.
And Prutton believes Forest will continue to climb further away from trouble by beating struggling Wycombe 2-1.
"This is a big game near the bottom," he said.
"Wycombe have games in hand on all the sides they are chasing but three wins all season suggests they are far from guaranteed points.
"It won't be a lack of fight that lets them down.
"Nottingham Forest are still precariously close to the bottom three. But they have done solid business in the window and I expect them to continue to climb away. Away win."
Forest will again be without injured midfielders Samba Sow, Ryan Yates and Harry Arter for their trip south, but the trio are making progress.
Boss Chris Hughton says this weekend’s clash will come too soon - although they could return for the clash against managerless Bournemouth next weekend.
Yates and Arter are ruled out through calf problems, while Sow missed the midweek victory over Coventry City after damaging his ankle in the previous game, against Barnsley.
“At the moment, Sow and Arter will miss out,” Hughton said.
