HALF-TIME ODDS

An unsurprisingly scrappy first half at Wembley that was short on chances other than Ryan Yates' 12th-minute effort (0.41 xG) for Forest ended with an own goal from Huddersfield's Levi Colwill that separates the sides after a deflection following Joe Garner's speculative shot (0.02 xG).

Huddersfield have created practically nothing, registering only one effort on goal, but neither side has looked particularly impressive.
