Leeds are now fractional favourites to take all three points from the 2pm kick-off at The City Ground through being a best-priced 17-10. Forest, who just about headed the market on Saturday, can be backed at 15-8 whilst 12-5 is the best price on offer about a draw.

United's Patrick Bamford heads an open looking first scorer market at a best-priced 13-2 but Forest's former Whites striker Chris Wood is joint second favourite at 15-2 along with team mate Sam Surridge. Forest youngster Detalf Esapa is also 15-2 with a few firms, followed by two more Forest attackers in Brennan Johnson and Emmanuel Dennis who are both 8s.

New record Leeds signing Georginio Rutter is 17-2 to score first and 7-2 as an any time scorer on what would be his Premier League debut. Whites attackers Luis Sinisterra, Willy Gnonto and Crysencio Summerville are all 9s to net first along with Forest injury doubt Jesse Lingard.

Forest's Alex Mighten is next at 10s, followed by United's Jack Harrison and no goalscorer, eventualities which are both 12s. In a very tight market, a 1-1 draw is clear favourite in the correct score market at 31-5. Leeds are 10-1 to win both 1-0 and 2-1 whilst Forest are 19-2 to record a 1-0 triumph and 21-2 to record a 2-1 success.
