    Michael Cheek (38 mins)

    Bromley's bagsman is at it again...

    Michael Cheek scores his 15th goal of the season for the EFL newcomers and they're in total control now.

    Salford blew a 2-0 lead at leaders Walsall on Saturday and they'll now need to overcome the same deficit if they're to avoid a home reverse tonight.

    United in the end are undone and pressure pays off. It's a lovely ball infield, Helik couldn't do any more than turn it into the net.

    "We scored a goal," sing the Burnley fans.

    BURNLEY HAVE SCORED A GOAL AT HOME!

    Ish.

    The Clarets have been on top in this and they have their reward as Josh Cullen's centre is stuck into his own net by Michal Helik.

    They're up to second as it stands.

    QPR 1-0 Blackburn

    In what was a bizarre moment, Blackburn midfielder Lewis Travis looks to pass the ball out wide but there was nobody there to receive it.

    One might be forgiven for thinking he was putting the ball out due to a player injury, but there was no injury.

    Blackburn have got to keep their composure if they are to get back into this.

    Burnley 0-0 Oxford

    It might still be 0-0 at Turf Moor but it's not for a lack of trying.

    Przemyslaw Placheta thumps a shot narrowly over the crossbar as the away side look to breach the home defence and the Clarets respond with Josh Laurent just sticking a shot wide from Lyle Foster's deflected cross.

    QPR 1-0 Blackburn

    Ilias Chair, who is proving a real thorn in Blackburn's side, manages to force a solid save from Aynsley Pears.

    He curled it from outside the box trying to use one of the defenders as cover, but the keeper was alert and got down low to his left.

    Ilias Chair is a nuisance and he gets QPR ticking. Blackburn will have to get tight on him because he will cause problems.

  8. CLOSE!published at 20:08 Greenwich Mean Time 4 February

    QPR 1-0 Blackburn

    What a goal that would have been!

    QPR's right winger Paul Smyth cuts in onto his left foot and tries to bend it inside Aynnsley Pears' left post from 25 yards out, but it goes just wide.

    Blackburn were really slow to try and close it down.

    Breathless stuff at Loftus Road.

  9. EFL Trophy update - Wrexham aheadpublished at 20:08 Greenwich Mean Time 4 February

    There are three Vertu Trophy games also going on this evening.

    Port Vale and Wrexham are locked level at 1-1 in a rearranged last-16 game that kicked off at 19:00 GMT.

    Ronan Curtis gave the hosts the perfect start with a first-minute opener but Andy Cannon levelled for Wrexham on the half-hour. They've just started the second half at Vale Park.

    Oh hang on, Wrexham are now in front, Harry Ashfield has put the Dragons ahead.

    Goalless in the night's two quarter-final ties, a Yorkshire derby between Rotherham and Bradford plus Stevenage v Birmingham.

    Burnley are looking to avoid equalling a very niche bit of footballing history this evening.

    The Clarets have drawn their past three home games 0-0, so, should this game also end goalless, they will become just the second second tier side in English football history to draw four home games in a row without a goal being scored after Wolves in March/April 2016.

    LONG way to go in this still and there's been plenty of action so I'm hopeful...

  11. PENALTY APPEALpublished at 20:03 Greenwich Mean Time 4 February

    QPR 1-0 Blackburn

    There's a decent shout for a penalty for Blackburn as Lewis Travis appears to be brought down by Koki Saito, but the referee James Linington waves it away.

    Burnley 0-0 Oxford

    It might not be a goal but Burnley have already gone one better than their home draw with Leeds in that they've had a shot on target.

    Jamie Cumming in the Yellows goal is equal to Zian Flemming's effort but the Clarets are certainly on top at the moment.

    A goal is definitely coming.

    Burnley look really comfortable. They're getting bodies in the box, they certainly should be in the lead at the moment.

    The away side take an early lead!

    Swansea loanee Cameron Congreve nets his fourth goal of the season and play-off chasing Salford are going to need to come from behind to take anything this evening.

  15. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 19:58 Greenwich Mean Time 4 February

    QPR 1-0 Blackburn

    Oh, that was VERY close to an equaliser, twice!

    Blackburn left-back Owen Beck sees his effort rattle off the crossbar, before Tyrhys Dolan has another crack, forcing Paul Nardi into a solid save.

    The home are keen to get their first goal in front of their own support since 21 December.

    Zian Flemming tees up Lyle Foster but his curled effort goes wide of the post.

    What a start for Newport!

    Bobby Kamwa's effort is well saved by Harry Burgoyne before Joe Thomas makes no mistake in finishing it off.

    Blackburn Rovers just need to calm themselves down and stay in this game. They've got a soft centre at the moment.

    Decent start so far.

    Tom Bradshaw sees a flicked header go wide for the visitors and straight down the other end Jaidon Anthony has a shot blocked and then Zian Flemming hammers a shot over the bar for the Clarets.

    And Rangers have the lead!

    It was a free-kick from the left side taken by Ilias Chair, who whipped it visciously onto the head of Michael Frey.

    Frey didn't have to do much to redirect the ball beyond Aynsley Pears.
