Norwich 0-1 Middlesbrough
Neil Maddison
Former Middlesbrough midfielder on BBC Tees
It's great play from Boro.
Norwich give away possession, Azaz gets the ball on the left-hand side, it gets a touch from the defender but it just rises and goes into the net.
Tommy Conway (45 mins)
Two in two minutes...
Norwich cough up possession again and Aidan Morris darts down the right and plays a wonderful ball across the box from the by-line for Tommy Conway to turn in from close range.
Just like that, Boro have daylight.
Paik Seung-Ho (40 mins)
Deadlock broken at St Andrew's.
Ethan Laird goes down the left and finds Paik Seung-Ho who side foots it past Jamie Cumming.
Birmingham deserve the lead.
Finn Azaz (43 mins)
Boro strike first and are top of the live table...
Norwich go to sleep at the back and Hayden Hackney strides forward before sliding the ball left to Finn Azaz to slam home the opening goal.
Josh Sargent had spurned a glorious chance to put the hosts ahead moments before.
City being punished for their profligacy.
West Brom 1-0 Portsmouth
End-to-end stuff at The Hawthorns.
First Zak Swanson comes up with a big block to stop Mikey Johnston getting his and the Albion's second.
The away side go straight down the other end and Florian Bianchini sees his shot saved by Josh Griffiths.
Norwich 0-0 Middlesbrough
Boro's turn to go on the attack as Aidan Morris wins the ball back in the City half but his lofted effort sails over Vladan Kovacevic's bar.
Haji Wright (37 mins)
Image source, Rex FeaturesDear oh dear QPR. They are all over the place.
Brandon Thomas-Asante squares to Haji Wright finishes one into the bottom corner for his third of the season.
They could actually score more the way things are going.
Southampton 0-0 Stoke
Andy Quy
BBC Radio Stoke summariser
Stoke have been playing well.
They're controlling the game and managing the pace of it really well. Southampton just aren't quite making that final pass.
Luke Cundle (38 mins)
Image source, PA MediaThings going from bad to worse for Sheffield United...
The away side break the deadlock through midfielder Luke Cundle.
Ruben Selles is now in danger of starting his tenure as Blades boss with four successive losses in league and cup.
Norwich 0-0 Middlesbrough
Another chance for Pape Amadou Diallo but this time the City man can't keep his effort down and it fizzes over Sol Brynn's crossbar.
Still no shots on target in this one, somehow.
Norwich 0-0 Middlesbrough
Pape Amadou Diallo is definitely up for this one and has come close to his first Canaries goal with a long range curler which flies narrowly wide of Sol Brynn's top corner.
Jack Rudoni (35 mins)
What a day this is turning out for Coventry.
Matt Grimes finds Jack Rudoni who controls it and fires one towards goal. It deflects off Steve Cook and goes in over Joe Walsh.
Dream stuff for the home side.
Birmingham 0-0 Oxford
How has Kyogo not scored in this game?
This time Demarai Gray puts in a good cross but Kyogo is unable to keep his header down and it goes over.
Southampton 0-0 Stoke
Stoke back on the attack and Junior Tchamadeu's cross is met by Divin Mubama, with the on-loan Man City man not knowing too much about it as the ball loops off him before being helped over the crossbar by Gavin Bazunu.
Norwich 0-0 Middlesbrough
Good work from Papa Amadou Diallo for the hosts who pounces on a loose pass from keeper Sol Brynn and whips in a cross which Josh Sargent is unable to head on target.
Norwich 0-0 Middlesbrough
Neil Maddison
Former Middlesbrough midfielder on BBC Tees
Image source, Rex FeaturesThe momentum has just swung in Norwich's favour now, they've been the better side in the past 15 minutes or so.
We just need to start retaining the ball a bit better.
Kieffer Moore (31 mins)
Image source, Getty ImagesLooks like it could be another long day for beleaguered Sheffield Wednesday...
Former Sheffield United striker Kieffer Moore has his and his side's second of the day as he follows in after Owls debutant goalkeeper Ethan Horvarth could only parry George Dobson's long range shot.
Both teams came into this game pointless this campaign, you'd have to say it looks like Wednesday are the ones who'll be ending the day that way too.
West Brom 1-0 Portsmouth
Baggies fans will hope that's one of many for Mikey Johnston this season.
The Republic of Ireland international has real quality but managed just three goals in the whole of 2024-25.
Southampton 0-0 Stoke
Two yellows in three minutes for the visitors as Divin Mubama has his name taken for a foul on Flynn Downes. Busy afternoon for ref Josh Smith already.
Southampton 0-0 Stoke
Stoke's Junior Tchamadeu has gone into the book early on after a body-check on Ryan Manning by the touchline.
