Forest will have the opportunity to go level on points with Leeds next Monday when they face Sunderland. Due to Friday evening’s postponement, Leeds’ next PL2 game is due to be played on Sunday, April 23 when Middlesbrough visit the LNER Stadium. Unless Leeds’ match versus Stoke is rearranged before the 23rd of next month, there will be a 35-day break between games the youngsters have to contend with.
A new date for the Whites’ trip to Stoke will be arranged in due course.
