    Walsall are top of League Two, with a game in hand, and don't their 2,711 travelling fans love it?

    Jamille Matt's blast looped into the corner off the hands of Connor Ripley early in the second half to decide this enounter played in filthy conditions.

    Jayden Stockley's effort cleared off the line in the latter stages was as close as Vale came.

    Six straight wins at Vale Park for Walsall.

  4. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:20 Greenwich Mean Time 7 December 2024

    Wigan 0-1 Leyton Orient

    Final change of the match.

    The player of the match, who assisted the currently-deciding-goal, Dan Agyei is replaced by Diallang Jaiyesimi.

    Into four minutes injury time now.

  5. FULL-TIMEpublished at 14:20 Greenwich Mean Time 7 December 2024

    Lincoln 0-0 Charlton

    Pretty forgetful in the end. The conditions certainly didn't help.

    Charlton asserted themselves after a shaky start and both sides had chances, but ultimately neither side did enough to break out of their poor form.

    One win in eight for Charlton. Lincoln end a run of three straight defeats.

  6. 'A really professional away performance from Walsall'published at 14:19 Greenwich Mean Time 7 December 2024

    Port Vale 0-1 Walsall

    Paul Joannou
    Walsall summariser on BBC Radio WM

    It has been a really professional away performance from Walsall.

    Port Vale really haven't had many chances and the Saddlers have restricted them and what they can do when they have the ball.

    They have defended as a unit and a team, and they have been brave by putting their bodies on the line.

    Port Vale 0-1 Walsall

    Good spell of pressure and possession for Vale but with nothing to show for it... yet. They do love late drama, do the Valiants...

    Ruari Paton gets his far-post header all wrong and sails his effort well over Tommy Simkin's crossbar.

    Into four additional minutes...

    Lincoln 0-0 Charlton

    Ethan Hamilton drills the ball across goal and it is deflected behind for a Lincoln corner...

    Cleared away.

    Crewe 1-1 Bradford

    Crewe pressing for a winner... Will Lankester tries a left-footed effort which loops off a defender and drops over the crossbar at the far post.

    The corner comes to nought, however.

    As it stands, it looks a better point for the Bantams...

  10. CLOSE!published at 14:16 Greenwich Mean Time 7 December 2024

    Wigan 0-1 Leyton Orient

    Orient really should have put this game to bed then.

    Ethan Galbraith squares the ball to substitute Charlie Kelman, who goes through on goal, but his effort is placed just wide of the far post.

    Lincoln 0-0 Charlton

    Terry Taylor does well to hold off Reeco Hackett after Wickens' quick long kick.

    He's been great for Charlton today.

  12. 'The Saddlers are living dangerously'published at 14:11 Greenwich Mean Time 7 December 2024

    Port Vale 0-1 Walsall

    Andrew Dawkins
    BBC Radio WM commentator

    There has not been many chances at either end as a whole, but it has still been an engaging top-of-the-table game.

    There was a chance for Vale and the Saddlers are living dangerously here, and the game is starting to open up for Port Vale.

  13. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:10 Greenwich Mean Time 7 December 2024

    Wigan 0-1 Leyton Orient

    Steven Sessegnon leaves the field to be replaced by former Newcastle utility player Paul Dummett. He joined on a short term deal just last month.

    Former Exeter and Plymouth defender Will Aimson is the other man replaced, Kwadwo Asamoah on in his place.

    Wigan have made all five changes already.

    Orient respond with one of their own; Charlie Kelman on for Jamie Donley.

  14. CLOSE!published at 14:10 Greenwich Mean Time 7 December 2024

    Port Vale 0-1 Walsall

    Jayden Stockley is convinced he's got the leveller, latching onto a bouncing ball and hooking an effort past keeper Tommy Simkin, only for a miraculous block on the line from Liam Gordon to keep the Saddlers lead intact.

    A game of inches, is League Two football.

  15. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:09 Greenwich Mean Time 7 December 2024

    Crewe 1-1 Bradford

    Vadaine Oliver is heading on for Bradford, against his former club and Oliver Sanderson is being introduced off the bench too.

    Calum Kavanagh is the player to make way along with Aden Baldwin.

  16. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:07 Greenwich Mean Time 7 December 2024

    Lincoln 0-0 Charlton

    Ethan Hamilton is on for Jack Moylan for Lincoln.

  17. SUBSTITUTIONSpublished at 14:07 Greenwich Mean Time 7 December 2024

    Port Vale 0-1 Walsall

    Another double change and the last throw of the dice for Darren Moore.

    Kyle John and Antwoine Hackford are coming on with Rico Richards and Rekeem Harper heading off.

    Into the last 15 minutes or so...

    Jamille Matt is making way for Walsall, with evergreen Albert Adomah coming on.

  18. CLOSE!published at 14:06 Greenwich Mean Time 7 December 2024

    Lincoln 0-0 Charlton

    Allan Campbell almost gives Charlton the lead with his first touch!

    He does well to get across his marker to meet Tyreece Campbell's cross but he can't find the target.

  19. CLOSE!published at 14:05 Greenwich Mean Time 7 December 2024

    Wigan 0-1 Leyton Orient

    Should be level.

    Callum McManaman and Steven Sessegnon combine down the left.

    The latter whips a ball across the six-yard box, Josh Keeley gets a palm on it, but not enough.

    Fortunately for the Latics, Jayden Sweeney, the goalscorer, is there for a crucial intervention depriving Jensen Weir an otherwise certain goal from a couple of yards out.

    The last 15 minutes of this one. It has gone from intriguing to plain frustrating.

    No cutting edge at either end, bur Charlton seem to come alive at this point of games, so...
