    Man City 2-0 Watford

    This second half has started much the same as the first ended. With Manchester City dominating.

    Twice Phil Foden and Jack Grealish link up well to create good opportunities for the home side but neither end in an effort on target.

    Chelsea 4-0 Barrow

    Barrow want one goal, any goal, to give their fans something to cheer after a long, long journey from the north west.

    Kian Spence tries to catch out Filip Jorgensen at his near post with a free-kick close to the left touchline, but the Chelsea keeper, called into action for the first time, does well to keep it out.

    That is two absolutely golden chances for the underdogs that have gone begging.

    Charlie Lakin in the first half and now the veteran Albert Adomah, both with real clear sights of the Leicester goal in the penalty area.

    Will Walsall rue those misses?

  6. Chilwell makes his first Chelsea appearance since Aprilpublished at 20:54 British Summer Time 24 September

    Chelsea have brought Ben Chilwell on for Malo Gusto at half-time while 3-0 up against Barrow.

    The 27-year-old defender makes his first appearance for the club since April as he looks to reintegrate into the set up under Enzo Maresca.

    This is the first time he even made a matchday squad under the Italian who told the England international he had no future at Stamford Bridge and that he should seek a move to another club in the summer if he wanted to play regular football.

    It remains to be seen whether he can turn the situation around but the writing remains very much on the wall on Chilwell's Chelsea career.

    It will no doubt be a topic for Maresca after the match as chants of "who are ya" are directed towards Barrow as Pedro Neto adds a fourth goal of the match.

    GOAL - Chelsea 4-0 Barrowpublished at 20:50 British Summer Time 24 September

    Pedro Neto (47 mins)

    Chelsea score again after Barrow fail to deal with a bouncing ball. Christopher Nkunku sends it to Mykhailo Mudryk and his low cross is begging to be converted, which Pedro Neto does at the back post.

  8. 'Play to your strengths'published at 20:50 British Summer Time 24 September

    HT: Wycombe 0-0 Aston Villa

    Joe Jacobson
    Former Wycombe Wanderers captain on BBC Radio 5 Live

    When you have got someone like David Wheeler on the right wing, you can use him as a platform and when Villa are leaving man-for-man at the back, get them in a duel that they aren't used to in the Premier League, and you can cause problems.

    You have got to play to your strengths.

    As a Bluebirds fan at Stamford Bridge, I'm not sure 3-0 is a fair reflection of the proceedings, but Chelsea's quality shows the difference between the levels. If we can grab a goal it would be the icing to a day out we could've only dreamed of a few years ago.

    HT: Wycombe 0-0 Aston Villa

    Glenn Murray
    Former Brighton striker on BBC Radio 5 Live

    I think when Unai Emery gets a look he will be disappointed because they have had six shots but none on target.

    That's what you want to do when you come somewhere like this - test the goalkeeper.

    Wycombe have tested Gauci.

  11. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 20:49 British Summer Time 24 September

    Chelsea 3-0 Barrow

    England left-back Ben Chilwell, whose future at Chelsea looked bleak in the summer, comes on and instantly gets the captain's armband.

    Malo Gusto comes off.

  12. Postpublished at 20:48 British Summer Time 24 September

    The early kick-offs are getting back under way. Chelsea 3-0 ahead versus Barrow, Walsall holding Leicester 0-0 and Man City 2-0 in front versus Watford.

  13. HALF-TIMEpublished at 20:47 British Summer Time 24 September

    Wycombe 0-0 Villa

    Still all to play for here at League One Wycombe Wanderers. They've more than held their own against Aston Villa of the Premier League.

    In reply to Glenn Murray's comment at 20:34. Villa will bring on Duran for himself, he only works as a sub. So Villa will hold the number up, he can high five himself and jog back on. Job done.

    Chelsea had Ben Chilwell and Carney Chukwuemeka warming up before half-time as teenagers Deivid Washington, Marc Guiu, Tyrique George and Josh Acheampong joined them.

    The Blues had already made XI changes from their 3-0 win away at West Ham as they spread the minutes around.

    There are yet more players pushing for minutes on the bench and, after two goals from Christopher Nkunku and an own goal by Paul Farman, there are more in this sizeable squad who want to get on that pitch.

  16. 'Walsall could be two up'published at 20:45 British Summer Time 24 September

    HT: Walsall 0-0 Leicester City

    Curtis Davies
    Former Premier League defender on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Walsall have done really well on the break and did well to stop Leicester.

    When they have been in the attacking area, they are the ones that had the better shots and could have been two up.

    Just a couple of minutes left to go in this half.

    Wycombe have had four shots, all of them on target.

    Villa have had six shots. None on target.

  18. Ayew the option for Cooper?published at 20:44 British Summer Time 24 September

    HT: Walsall 0-0 Leicester

    Michael Beardmore
    BBC Sport at Poundland Bescot Stadium

    I was slightly surprised to see Steve Cooper omit the likes of Jamie Vardy, Stephy Mavididi and Wilfried Ndidi from his squad tonight.

    The Foxes have looked dangerous at times but Cooper will want more threat in the box in the second half - Jordan Ayew maybe?

    Indeed, League Two high-fliers Walsall have arguably provided the greater cutting edge of the two sides - albeit with far less of the ball.

    Charlie Lakin passed up the best chance of the first half - indeed his effort, well saved by Danny Ward, is the game's only shot on target thus far.

    Barrow supporters just want one goal. We know we haven’t got a chance against Chelsea but just something to cheer would be great.

    Wycombe 0-0 Aston Villa

    Jacob Ramsey is the only player on the Aston Villa bench resembling a regular first-team player.

    Diego Carlos was named as a substitute but injured himself in the warm up.

    If things get tricky for the visitors it could be a struggle to find someone on the bench who can turn things around.
