Welcome along to tonight's live Leeds United coverage as the Whites take on Nottingham Forest at Elland Road. There's no underestimating the size of tonight's clash with both teams struggling at the wrong end of the Premier League table.
Leeds dropped back into the bottom three on Monday night as Everton picked up a point against Tottenham Hotspur at Goodison Park. A win tonight though could move them up to 13th in the table and give Javi Gracia's side's hopes of survival a huge boost.
Forest haven't picked up a league win since they saw off the Whites at the City Ground in early February, going seven games without a result. That form has seen them fall to within a point of the drop zone and Leeds will be keen to leapfrog them this evening.
We're reporting live from Elland Road all evening to bring you all the team news, build-up and match action.

Good performances throughout
Harrison, Roca, Sinisterra, McKennie, Firpo and Struijk stand out as the top performers tonight though. Exceptional from Javi Gracia's side who are visibly making progress. Crystal Palace next and you have to fancy the Whites after tonight's showing.
Leeds more than good value for that
The Whites up to 13th in the Premier League as it stands! It's still only a two point cushion over the bottom three but the importance of that win cannot be underestimated! They had to shwo bags of character but they got over line in the end and they more than deserved it.
