Cameron Brannagan hits a long-range effort for Oxford towards the top corner but it's excellently tipped onto the crossbar by Boro keeper Sol Brynn.

Close to a lifeline for the hosts.

Finally, that first half comes to a close at The Den and as it stands, Sunderland are on course to regain top spot.

The Black Cats lead through that early Aaron Connolly volley and they've been good value for it too.

We're about half-hour behind at The Den after two separate medical emergencies in the crowd.

This is really sustained pressure from West Brom.

It is not just the rain lashing Norwich in the face, they have got to face the storm of West Brom.

The Baggies are in control at the moment.

You can tell these are two teams struggling, scrapping for the points, playing in torrential rain.

Rangers coming back after that early Stoke flurry as Koki Saito tees up Sam Field, who is foiled by Viktor Johansson.

Then full-back Harrison Ashby dances into the Potters' penalty area and tries his luck - but his luck is out as the shot takes a deflection and grazes the post.

A change for each side at Kenilworth Road.

Shandon Baptiste is replaced by Liam Walsh for Luton and Ryan Longman is on for Gustavo Puerta for Hull City.

Middlesbrough almost make it five as George Edmundson gets on the end of another brilliant ball across the box by Finn Azaz but sends it just wide.

Hull City almost find the equaliser as Joao Pedro hits the post after getting on the end of Regan Slater's low cross.

That could be a huge moment in this game.

It looks as though play will resume soon - the players are now back out on the pitch and warming up again.

Five minutes still to play in the first half.

Emmanuel Latte Lath's hat-trick today takes him to seven goals for the season and he might soon have that golden boot in his sights...

Five goals in his last three games, including today. A man in form.

Norwich goalkeeper Angus Gunn is called into action early in the second half.

And it's a good near-post stop by the Scotland international as he foils Jayson Molumby.

The wind is set in our favour for now, it's behind us.

You can see when the Luton keeper has the ball it's going back.

Lively start for Stoke in this second half and they might easily have doubled their advantage.

Tom Cannon's close-range effort was parried by Paul Nardi before Bae Jun-ho followed up in the aftermath, but his attempt was charged down,

Seven games without a win for Hull City before today... they're behind again at Luton.

Can they prevent a third defeat in a row? And will it be eight on the bounce without a victory?

Preston boss Paul Heckingbottom has turned to his bench at half-time.

Ryan Ledson goes off to be replaced by Milutin Osmajic, who makes his first appearance since serving an eight-match ban for biting an opponent.

Osmajic received the lengthy punishment by the FA for biting Blackburn Rovers' Owen Beck in September's Lancashire derby. He was also fined £15,000.

Sunderland are heading back top of the Championship, making Sheffield United's stay at the summit a brief one.

Things are looking far less rosy for QPR, who will be six points adrift of safety if they cannot find a way back against Stoke.

It's now been confirmed that the stoppage at The Den is due to two separate medical emergencies in the crowd.

The players were taken off immediately when the situation became apparent just before half-time.

We're starting to get back under way for the second-half in five of our six games in the Championship.

A quick reminder that there was a delay for a medical emergency in the crowd at The Den in the game between Millwall and Sunderland - that game is still yet to resume.
