  1. Get Involved

    Leicester 1-0 Middlesbrough

    Well, this is the first time, as a Leicester fan, that I've been happy with the lack of VAR in the Championship, with previous decisions seemingly going against us. That handball was indeed just outside the box and VAR would have denied us.

    Steve, Cambridge

    Neil Maddison says it's a poor Leicester side - most Leicester supporters would agree [but] they are beating you at the moment

    Blue Boy, Rugby

  2. YELLOW CARD

    Ipswich 1-1 Watford

    Ipswich's George Hirst is the first home player cautioned by referee David Webb.

  3. CLOSE!

    Bristol City 0-1 Blackburn

    A glimpse of Bristol City as an attacking threat as first Scott Twine sees a trademark free-kick cannon off the wall for a corner, which Twine takes himself only for Rob Dickie's header to flash wide of Balazs Toth's upright.

  4. Ipswich 1-1 Watford

    Chuba Akpom tests the reflexes of Watford goalkeeper Egil Selvik but he's equal to the effort and palms it away.

    Both these sides are inside the top 10 at the start of play with the play-offs within sight - who wants it more?

  5. GREAT SAVE!

    Charlton 0-0 West Brom

    Keepers earning their corn tonight.

    First Thomas Kaminski does brilliantly to prevent Isaac Price dinking the ball over him from an angle after an intelligent step-over from Samuel Iling-Junior at one end, then down the other Josh Griffiths does brilliantly to get down to Sonny Carey's low skidder from range, tipping it up and around his right post at full-stretch.

    Price might have been better to square that you know... he's spurned a couple of good openings already tonight.

  6. 'One of the worst Leicester sides'

    Leicester 1-0 Middlesbrough

    Neil Maddison
    Former Middlesbrough midfielder on BBC Tees

    This is one of the worst looking Leicester City sides I have seen in a long time.

  7. Leicester 1-0 Middlesbrough

    Morgan Whittaker whips a shot at the Leicester goal but it's too high and Leicester breathe easy.

    Middlesbrough have started well in the second 45.

  8. YELLOW CARD

    Leicester 1-0 Middlesbrough

    Leicester's Jordan James is into the book for a foul.

    No complaints there.

  9. 'Intrigued to see how we defend this lead'

    HT: Coventry 0-1 Sheffield United

    Carl Asaba
    Former Sheffield United striker on BBC Radio Sheffield

    I think it has been a really even game, we have given as good as we have got.

    A couple shots have been blocked.

    Chris (Wilder) needs to speak to them as a lot of our mistakes have been down to our poor decisions.

    Can we continue to show the promise we showed in that first half.

    I am delighted we are leading but intrigued to see how we defend this lead.

  10. goal

    GOAL Derby 1-1 Hull City

    Joe Ndala (50 mins)

    The Tigers roar back.

    Home goalkeeper Jacob Widell Zetterstrom has just had to deny Matt Crooks but now he's picking the ball out of the net.

    Joel Ndala can't miss from close range for the first league goal of his career.

  11. goal

    GOAL: Birmingham 3-0 Millwall

    Alex Cochraine (49 mins)

    Alex Cochrane fires in Birmingham's third against MillwallPA Media

    Blues won 4-0 on Saturday... they couldn't do it again, could they?

    What a hit this is.

    Patrick Roberts glides down the right, the ball is pulled back and crossed into the box, Millwall manage to head clear but only to the lurking Alex Cochrane 25 yards out to unleash an absolute rocket through the St Andrew's murk which flies past Max Crocombe and almost breaks the net.

    Thunderbolt, and the Championship's last remaining unbeaten away run is 40-odd minutes away from ending.

  12. 'Sheff Utd have been good value'

    HT: Coventry 0-1 Sheffield United

    Sanny Rudravajhala
    BBC Radio 5 Live at the CBS Arena

    Coventry's Jay Dasilva sends a dangerous ball into the boxShutterstock

    We had a light show and fireworks before kick off but it’s the away side who’ve been the brighter on the pitch.

    Sam McCallum may have his hands up for a ‘no celeb’ celebration after bundling home on 25 minutes but it’s a huge goal for Sheffield United.

    Blades fans would have been forgiven for thinking about what could have been after losing the play-off final and now seeing fellow Premier League dreamers Coventry at the top.

    Sheffield United have been good value though. They certainly don’t look like they’re in the relegation zone.

    The warning signs are there though, Haji Wright should have headed home in first half stoppage time.

    Coventry yet to fully hit their stride, I expect a rocket from Lampard at the break.

  13. CLOSE!

    Charlton 0-0 West Brom

    West Brom back on the front-foot after the turnaround but after some good approach play from Aune Heggebo and Isaac Price, Samuel Iling-Junior curls wide of Thomas Kaminski's post from the edge of the box.

  14. SUBSTITUTION

    Leicester 1-0 Middlesbrough

    Leicester are having to make a change in goal.

    Goalkeeper Asmir Begovic, at the age of 38, is on for his Leicester debut and first senior game since April 2024.

    Jakub Stolarczyk has had to go off for the home side.

  15. goal

    GOAL: Oxford 0-3 Stoke

    Lewis Baker (48 mins)

    Junior Tchamadeu sent clear down the right wing for Stoke.

    He has the power to get himself into the penalty area and then cuts a pass back to Lewis Baker.

    His first shot is blocked but the rebound is safely tucked away.

    Baker's second and have Stoke already sealed another three points?

  16. KICK-OFF

    #bbcefl

    Believe it or not, we're back underway in out 19:45 GMT kick-offs... though they're running more than seven minutes behind at Ashton Gate, be warned...

  17. HALF-TIME

    Coventry 0-1 Sheffield United

    Another corner for the Blades in stoppage time.

    Again to the near post - and again Ben Mee there first to flick on.

    But this time it's cleared away.

    Coventry break and a ball in from the left is met by Haji Wright but stretching he can't get a good contact on his header and it loops slowly into the arms of Michael Cooper.

    Sam McCallum with the goal that separates the sides at the break.

  18. Get Involved

    HT: Bristol City 0-1 Blackburn

    It has been a slow start to the season, but Blackburn Rovers are finally waking up. Playing tidy football and pressing brilliantly. Ohashi and Morishita look superb finds.

    Coley, Preston

  19. Coventry 0-1 Sheffield United

    Slick move down the right from United.

    A low cross comes in and finds Sydie Peck.

    He takes a good touch and fires with his right boot.

    But Bobby Thomas makes an excellent block for Coventry and the ball bobbles into the goalkeeper's arms.

  20. Get Involved

    HT: Oxford 0-2 Stoke

    Time for Stoke fans to genuinely get excited at a promotion tilt? Saturday at home to Coventry will be the big one but a win at Oxford would be superb.

    Jay, Stafford
