Friday night sees a key match at the bottom of the table as both Leeds United and Nottingham Forest look to pull away from the relegation trap door. The two sides are in 16th and 17th; six points clear of third bottom West Ham United. We have put together an 8/1 bet builder.
Leeds United vs Nottingham Forest Odds
The two sides are level on points and have the same goal difference. Leeds are one place ahead of Forest having scored more goals. This is a close one to call, and the odds from the best betting sites in the UK reflect this. Leeds have had some good home results of late, making Elland Road a difficult place to go, while Forest have picked up points on their travels over the last few weeks. Depending on other results, a win for either side could take them nine points clear of relegation, while a loss could see them pulled right back into trouble.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin to Have Over 0.5 shots on Target
The main problem with Dominic Calvert-Lewin over the years has been keeping him fit. Leeds boss Daniel Farke has managed the former Everton striker’s minutes really well, and his nine goals in 17 starts have been a major factor in Leeds’ midseason run which has seen them pull six points clear of relegation. Calvert-Lewin has consistently worked the opposition goalkeeper, with 20 shots on target, averaging 1.14 per 90 minutes. We expect him to register at least one effort on target against Forest.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin Over 1.5 fouls
As well as providing Leeds with a goal threat, Calvert-Lewin has put himself about this season. He has been a constant thorn in the side for defenders, and his physicality has seen him rack up 27 fouls at an average of 1.54 per 90 minutes. Given the fact that Forest have won an average of 11.5 fouls per game, the third highest total in the league and the importance of the match in the context of the relegation battle, we expect him to register at least two fouls on Friday evening. We think that 5/4 at SBK is a good price.
Elliot Anderson over 1.5 fouls
We’re staying with fouls for our third bet given that we feel that this will be a competitive encounter. Elliot Anderson has proved himself to be one of the best midfielders in the league over the last season and a half since signing for Forest. While he is known for his technical ability and his quality on the ball, Anderson is not afraid to get his foot in. He has committed 34 fouls in the Premier League this season, averaging out at 1.85 per 90 minutes. As is the case with Calvert-Lewin, we expect the occasion to bring out Anderson’s combative side, and we think he will clock up at least two fouls.
Over 9.5 Corners
Our Kickform stats show that Leeds have won an average of 4.54 corners per game with Forest averaging 5.38. 67% of Forest’s matches have seen the corner count go over 9.5. We think that there will be at least 10 flag kicks in this one.
