Leeds United confirm this change for vital Nottingham Forest clash

Leeds United are enjoying a strong season and promotion out of the Championship could well be achieved this time around, and you just know the Sky Sports cameras will follow them every step of the way.

United have proven to be among the top billing in the Championship over the last two seasons, with Marcelo Bielsa's team bringing some life on and off the field to the second tier.

Bielsa's men failed to earn automatic promotion last season despite a promising position in the final months of the regular campaign, before Derby County dumped them out of the play-offs.

However, this term is looking promising again as Leeds sit top of the Championship following a draw at West Bromwich Albion on New Year's Day.

Leeds are nine points clear of third with 20 games remaining and there is no wonder the Sky cameras are going to be along for the ride next month.

Four Championship TV fixtures have been announced for the second weekend of the month and the Whites' trip to Nottingham Forest has been announced as one of them, with the fixture having been moved to a 5.30pm kick-off slot.

Three other fixtures involving the likes of Bristol City, Birmingham City, Wigan Athletic, Preston North End, Millwall and West Brom have also been altered for TV purposes.

The EFL are running to five-week deadlines per fixture so more movement around other games in February may be announced next week.
