  1. No messing around by Saints

    Cardiff City 0-1 Southampton

    Southampton have bossed possession since kick-off, and they're ahead after just 10 minutes in the Welsh capital.

    Tyler Dibling embarked on a mazy run and managed to stay on his feet after contact.

    He picked out Mateus Fernandes whose first touch gives him space to shoot, and he drills into the bottom corner of Jak Alnwick's goal from the edge of the 18-yard box.

    No messing around from the Premier League side early on here.

  2. Wolves 0-0 Burnley

    Oh, that is brilliant from Rayan Ait-Nouri to surge forward with the ball as he powers past three Burnley defenders. His flicked finish is well saved by Václav Hladky, who is currently down receiving treatment on his knee.

    I'm a big fan of Ait-Nouri!

  3. West Ham 0-0 Bournemouth

    It has been a good start by Bournemouth at West Ham as now Alex Scott drops a shoulder on the right, cuts inside and tries to a curl a shot into the top corner, but it is just wide.

    A great finish from Mateus Fernandes!

    Southampton break through the middle and it comes to Fernandes in the box.

    He hasn't got much time but hits it first time and drills it powerfully into the bottom left corner. Good start for Southampton.

  5. 'Al Hamadi all alone at the back-post'

    AFC Wimbledon 0-1 Ipswich

    One of Wimbledon's great EFL goal scorers has scored for Ipswich Town!

    Ali Al Hamadi all alone at the back-post, a pinpoint header!

  6. Swansea 0-0 Wycombe

    Good chance for Wycombe's Josh Scowen but Swansea goalkeeper Lawrence Vigouroux gets down low to keep it out.

  7. Colchester 0-0 Brentford

    Busy few minutes in Colchester. Brentford's Hakon Valdimarsson has got a bit of an issue. Looks like he has something in his eye. He's been getting treatment.

    Colchester's new signing - Aaron Donnelly on loan from Nottingham Forest - has caused issues with his throw-ins.

  8. West Ham 0-0 Bournemouth

    Vladimír Coufal heads behind a cross and Bournemouth have the first corner of the game. The delivery to the near post hits Luis Sinisterra and goes behind for a goal kick.

    Andy: It says a lot about how different this summer is to recent windows for West Ham. We can make eight changes, and still put out a side with; Kilman, Todibo, Fullkrug, Alvarez, Bowen, Summerville, Soucek and Wan-Bissaka in it!

    I'd like Burnley to win tonight, but there's a big Lancashire Derby on Saturday at the Turf which is more important!

    It took just three minutes for Ali Al Hamadi to score against his former side!

    Ipswich start the match on the attack with Conor Chaplin earning his side a corner. The ball is sent brilliantly into the box where Al Hamadi plants a perfect header into the net.

    Ipswich signed Al Hamadi from Wimbledon in January.

  12. CLOSE!

    Colchester 0-0 Brentford

    Most of the possession has been with Brentford so far as expected but there's some defending to do as Colchester cause problems with two long throw-ins.

    Tom Hopper pounces on a loose ball at the back post and forces Brentford goalkeeper Hakon Valdimarsson into an important save.

  13. 'Tonali can produce on the football pitch'

    It will take a bit of time for Sandro Tonali - match fitness is totally different to training fitness.

    He might not play the whole game, but it'll be good to see him start. I always believe in people getting a second chance and he needs to grab it with both hands.

    He is a good player and I have seen a lot of him in Seria A, he has made a mistake and hopefully he can learn from it - he can produce on the football pitch.

  14. GREAT SAVE!

    Wolves 0-0 Burnley

    What a save from Vaclav Hladky! He gets down well to palm Daniel Podence's effort wide but Pedro Lima is sprinting towards the ball with the goal in his sights.

    Hladky manages to pick himself up off the floor and keep Lima out. Tremendous stuff from the Burnley goalie.

  15. Late change for West Ham

    West Ham 0-0 Bournemouth

    There was a late change for West Ham just before kick-off, with Vladimír Coufal coming in for Aaron Cresswell.

    Andrew Irving has been included in the substitutes as a result.

  16. KICK-OFF

    Another five games just kicking off. Let's have some goals!

  17. Made up with the sprinklers

    Russell Martin arrives at Saints' groundGetty Images

    Southampton boss Russell Martin enjoyed his two visits to Cardiff City Stadium with former club Swansea City, winning on both occasions as the Swans' claimed the first ever league doubles between the sides.

    But his most recent visit to the Welsh capital at the end of last season was not so memorable as the Saints lost 2-1 to the Bluebirds.

    Martin was also soaked twice by the Cardiff City Stadium's sprinklers, although it seems he's kissed and made up with the Bluebirds' ground staff before tonight's match!

  18. 'This competition allows us to use the squad'

    Nottingham Forest v Newcastle (20:00 BST)

    Nottingham Forest

    Nottingham Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo, speaking to Sky Sports ahead of the game: "It's a good chance, this competition allows us to use the squad and I think the players can deliver.

    "Very important [competition] as we need solutions and we need everyone ready.

    "We are in a good moment and the players are in a good place. Everyone is working hard and I'm really positive."

  19. Wolves 0-0 Burnley

    First shot on goal for Wolves as Goncalo Guedes fires one towards goal but Shurandy Sambo races back to block well.

    Pretty subdued at Molineux so far.

  20. Can Colchester upset Brentford?

    Colchester v Brentford (19:45 BST)

    Will we see a giant killing tonight?

    Premier League outfit Brentford have travelled to Colchester to take on the League Two side who have one win and two defeats from their first three league games of the season.

    It puts them 17th in the table, while Brentford beat Crystal Palace, before losing to Liverpool on the weekend.

    New signings Fabio Carvalho and Sepp van den Berg will start for Brentford as they make a few changes.

    Colchester knocked out League One side Reading in the first round and reached the quarter-finals of this competition in 2019-20.

    They beat Tottenham on that run - as well as Crystal Palace in a penalty shootout. It eventually ended with a 3-0 defeat at Old Trafford.
