Costel Pantilimon is a lucky man in the Forest goal.

The giant keeper flaps at a cross and punches the ball straight to Mateusz Klich, but the Leeds midfielder can't control it and Forest clear their lines.

Leeds are in their classic all-white kit. Forest in all-out red. For a man who hates any type of kit clash, I love them.

Leeds get things under way at Elland Road. The atmosphere is electric.

First we'll have a minute's silence ahead of Remembrance Sunday.

It's Leeds' final home game before 11 November - hence the sentiments this evening.

A win for Leeds would see them end the weekend on top of the Championship.

It's a report-writer's nightmare at the moment - teams swapping all over the shop.

It's a nippy old evening in West Yorkshire. Scarf and hat sort of weather.

The players are in the tunnel - but not a glove in sight from what I can make out.

I'm not sure Marcelo Bielsa is the sort of man who allows knitwear on his players.

There's something of a feel-good factor this season at Forest.

Following several campaigns of mid-table mediocrity, Aitor Karanka's side have finally found a bit of resilience and form.

They've only lost once in their past eight league games and go into the match at Elland Road on the back of a 3-0 win at Bolton.

Is this the season Forest can finally push for promotion back to the Premier League? Or will their 20-year wait continue?

Marcelo Bielsa makes three changes for Leeds. Pontus Jansson is back from suspension and replaces the injured Gaetano Berardi, with Adam Forshaw and Stuart Dallas also recalled.

Nottingham Forest bring in Danny Fox and Matty Cash, with Michael Dawson and Gil Dias the two players to drop out of Aitor Karanka's side.

Leeds: Peacock-Farrell, Ayling, Dallas, Cooper, Jansson, Klich, Phillips, Forshaw, Alioski, Hernandez, Roofe.

Nottingham Forest: Pantilimon, Darikwa, Figueiredo, Fox, Robinson, Colback, Guedioura, Cash, Carvalho, Lolley, Grabban.

After a dream start to the campaign, which saw Leeds go unbeaten in their first eight league matches under new boss Marcelo Bielsa, the Argentine has been given a true taste of life in the Championship in recent weeks.

A home defeat by Birmingham on 22 September kick-started a run of just one win in five games - but Wednesday's 2-0 victory over Ipswich breathed a bit of life back into their promotion charge.

Today they take on a Nottingham Forest side who are hovering just outside the play-offs.

Kick-off is in around 15 minutes...

Thanks guys, a humdinger indeed. Two top flight giants of yesteryear go head to head at Elland Road.

Both have ambitions of getting back into the big time. Expect fireworks.

So, with the afternoon's EFL action done and dusted, we turn our attention to the teatime kick-off in the Championship.

Leeds against Nottingham Forest. Humdinger.

Gary Smee will take you through that one...

• Billy Sharp's hat-trick helps Sheffield United beat Wigan 4-2 to return to the top of the table.
• New Ipswich boss Paul Lambert watches them lose 3-0 at Millwall, with Lee Gregory scoring twice.

• Nigel Adkins gets first win in eight as Hull win at fellow strugglers Bolton.
• West Brom held by Blackburn, Norwich up to third with victory over Brentford.

That's the Championship 15:00 games done - and the table looks good for Blades fans...

The Baggies could've gone top with a win today, instead they remain fifth.

It looked like they were heading for a routine victory when Craig Dawson opened the scoring but, Harrison Reed's equaliser 20 minutes from time ensures that the points are shared.

The points are shared at Deepdale.

Tom Barkhuizen's header for Preston just before half-time was cancelled out by Millers striker Michael Smith. It wasn't really a classic.

Millwall brush Ipswich aside to move up to 18th, four points clear of the drop zone.

A Lee Gregory brace did the business, while Paul Lambert will now be fully aware of the task ahead.

Eight defeats in nine for Ipswich, who stay bottom and are being cut adrift.

Gary Rowett's another manager who badly needed a win and - thanks to Darren Fletcher's volley - he has it.

He needed Stoke keeper Jack Butland to make two world-class saves to keep Bristol City out in the second half.

No late heroics this time for Lee Johnson's side.

A massive three points for Hull and boss Nigel Adkins, whose job had been under intense pressure.

Bolton's woeful run goes on and now it's their manager Phil Parkinson who will be looking over his shoulder.
