Leeds return to the City Ground
Leeds have barely had time to forget their previous visit to Nottingham before returning for another meeting with Forest.
The EFL Cup rematch at the City Ground comes only days after the two clubs met in the Premier League, giving both sides a very recent understanding of their opponent.
This time the objective is different. There are no league points available, and the winner progresses directly to the third round.
Will Tarik Muharemović play against Nottingham Forest?
Leeds supporters will also be waiting to see how Daniel Farke approaches his starting XI for the cup tie.
Tarik Muharemović has already featured from the opening whistle against Forest this season, having been selected in the Leeds starting XI for the Premier League meeting at the City Ground.
The EFL Cup gives Farke the opportunity to make changes, meaning the official lineup will determine whether the Bosnia and Herzegovina international receives another start.
When does Nottingham Forest vs Leeds start?
Kick-off at the City Ground is scheduled for 8:00pm BST.
UK viewers can watch the game live through ITV or Sky Sports, with ITVX, Sky Go and NOW among the streaming options available.
