Sheff Wed 0-3 Stoke
Mark Elliott
Stoke City commentatorWednesday have had their moments but it's a club in crisis, nothing is going their way at the moment.
They have put the work in today though.
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:32 British Summer Time 16 August
Blackburn 1-0 Birmingham
Blackburn make a change and it's Ryan Hedges who takes a breather and on comes Lewis Miller.
GOAL: Sheff Wed 0-3 Stokepublished at 16:31 British Summer Time 16 August
Million Manhoef (69 mins)
Sheffield Wednesday are sinking to another defeat. Stoke are feeling a million dollars.
Sorba Thomas gets away again down the right and he provides the cross for Million Manhoef to slot home.
Two for Manhoef, three points for Stoke and they are going to set the (very, very) early pace in the Championship.
'Leicester have a firm foot in the game'published at 16:30 British Summer Time 16 August
Preston 1-1 Leicester
Steve Howard
Former Leicester striker on BBC Radio LeicesterThis is hanging in the balance now.
Leicester have got a firm foot on the game and are making things happen.
They need to keep the urgency and momentum and they will get the second goal.
GOAL: Swansea 1-0 Sheff Utdpublished at 16:29 British Summer Time 16 August
Ronald (66 mins)
Swansea have been the side pushing and they are rewarded with the opening goal.
The man from Brazil, Ronald, gets it.
The Swans are heading for the first win. The Blades are heading for a second defeat.

Sheff Wed 0-2 Stoke
More brilliance from Super Swede Viktor Johansson in the Stoke goal.
Barry Bannan with the acrobatic effort and the Owls skipper watches Johansson push it round the post.

Watford 2-1 QPR
Watford still lead, but Rangers have been getting closer to an equaliser.
Ilias Chair's distance effort brought a save from Egil Selvik and more recently Kader Dembele supplied a chance that Sam Field could only head off target.
Stating the obvious perhaps, but the next goal looks crucial in this one.
'The intent is there'published at 16:27 British Summer Time 16 August
Blackburn 1-0 Birmingham
Ian Clarkson
Ex-Birmingham captain on BBC Radio WMIt's far better from Blues, the intent is there.
It's almost taken Blackburn to score for Birmingham to start playing.

Jeremy Monga (67 mins)
Brilliant from Daniel Iversen in the Preston goal to deny Abdul Fatawu but just seconds later Leicester are level and it's the teenager Jeremy Monga!
He's only 16 years of age and became Leicester's youngest starter in midweek well now he has a goal.
Monga gets himself into the box and with a right-foot shot beats Iversen.
I don't know what you were doing at the age of 16 but I doubt it was scoring in the EFL!
HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 16:26 British Summer Time 16 August
Millwall 0-1 Middlesbrough
Millwall and Josh Coburn have come so close to an equaliser.
Coburn's diving header beats Sol Brynn, but hits both posts and does not go in.
How close can you get?

Blackburn 1-0 Birmingham
Back come Blackburn after that Tomoki Iwata effort for the visitors.
It's a brilliant move and Augustus Kargbo finishes it by heading just wide.
This one took a long while to get going but we're enjoying it now.
Postpublished at 16:24 British Summer Time 16 August
Sheff Wed 0-2 Stoke
There is a reason why Viktor Johansson is one of the best goalkeepers in the Championship and he has just demonstrated that perfectly.
Two big saves to deny Svante Ingelsson and Liam Palmer from pulling one back.
HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 16:23 British Summer Time 16 August
Bristol City 0-0 Charlton
OK, that's one apiece. Not goals - but interventions by the woodwork.
This time it's Charlton who go agonisingly close as the ball deflects off City's George Tanner but Radek Vitek comes to his side's rescue, scrambling to tip onto the post.
Somehow, it's still 0-0!

Blackburn 1-0 Birmingham
Birmingham are just cranking things up as they chase a leveller.
Tomoki Iwata has an effort saved by Balazs Toth.
Postpublished at 16:22 British Summer Time 16 August
Millwall 0-1 Middlesbrough
We thought it was a long time since Stoke last began with two wins. That was in 2007.
Middlesbrough have not won their first two games of a season since Bryan Robson's first season in charge. That was all the way back in 1994.
But it did end in promotion.
'All passing and no punch'published at 16:21 British Summer Time 16 August
Swansea 0-0 Sheff Utd
Dafydd Pritchard
BBC Sport Wales at the Swansea.com StadiumA familiar tale for Swansea so far of plentiful possession but limited threat in attack.
They only scored 51 goals in 46 Championship matches last season, and they've yet to find the net 150 minutes into this campaign.
'Preston are dictating'published at 16:19 British Summer Time 16 August
Preston 1-0 Leicester
Steve Howard
Former Leicester striker on BBC Radio Leicester
Image source, PA MediaThe changes will help Leicester to shape up a bit.
They need to get a hold of the ball, they're not doing enough with it, the midfield have to dictate.
At the moment, Preston are dictating.

Blackburn 1-0 Birmingham
Oh a chance for Birmingham.
Ethan Laird is very close in for the visitors but his header flashes over the bar.
