The Football League’s title sponsor and our betting partner Sky Bet are expecting a big impact from loan signing Connor Wickham, going 5/2 that he scores on his Leeds debut.

Connor, who scored eight goals in 11 games during his loan spell with Sheffield Wednesday earlier this season, is evens to net seven or more goals for the Whites.

The England Under-21 international has joined on loan until the end of the season and has already targeted helping “push the team into the promotion picture,” with Leeds currently 18/1 for a top-six finish and 33/1 for promotion.

The online bookmaker have already added Wickham into their first goalscorer betting for Saturday’s clash with QPR, live on Sky Sports 1HD, making him a 15/2 chance behind with the league’s leading scorer Ross McCormack, who is 11/8 to add to his impressive tally by netting anytime.

They also offer odds on how many goals Wickham will score in Leeds’ next five games and which team he will open his account against, while going 33/1 for him to be named Sky Bet Championship Player of the Month before the end of the season.
