Premium Tip<\/th> Odds<\/th> Why we\u2019re backing it<\/th><\/tr><\/thead> Correct Score: Nott’m Forest 2-1 Leeds<\/strong><\/td> 8\/1<\/td> Leeds United got the better of Nottingham Forest on Saturday, but the City Ground gives the hosts a chance to respond immediately. This should be another closely fought contest, although Forest\u2019s home advantage and motivation to avenge that defeat could prove decisive. With both teams likely to score, back a 2-1 Nottingham Forest win at 8\/1 with bet365.<\/td><\/tr> Chris Wood anytime scorer<\/strong><\/td> 7\/5<\/td> Chris Wood remains one of Nottingham Forest\u2019s most reliable sources of goals, having scored 20 Premier League goals in 2024\/25. The striker also led the line in the recent meeting with Leeds, coming off the bench and registering an effort after his introduction. With Forest likely to rely on Wood\u2019s physical presence and penalty-box movement in the rematch, back the New Zealander to find the net.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
