Nottingham Forest and Leeds United meet for the second time in four days this evening in the second round of the Carabao Cup. The match kicks off at 8pm on Tuesday, August 25, at the City Ground in Nottingham.
Saturday saw the two sides face off in Premier League action, with Leeds claiming the bragging rights in the top-flight opener. Anton Stach’s late free-kick proved the difference, giving Daniel Farke’s men the perfect start to the campaign.

Leeds finished 14th last term and will hope to improve upon that this time round. Forest boss Oliver Glasner is looking to kickstart his tenure at the City Ground.
What the managers said
Oliver Glasner said: “This [a defeat] always gives me a great feedback, how we deal with this situation. We do not bury our heads in the sand so we are focusing on what we need to do and what we have done well.”
Daniel Farke said: “Away games in Premier League are always difficult. Sometimes the second year is more difficult. Last season, we picked up many points with draws. On the road, we want to be competitive and be more effective.”
