'It should be level'published at 14:26 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Cambridge 0-1 Bristol Rovers
Lee Mansell
Former Bristol Rovers midfielder on BBC Radio Bristol
It should be level if not for a fantastic block from James Wilson, he appeared out of nowhere to fling himself in front of the shot which ricochets into the hands of Josh Griffiths.
Rovers just need to settle down, it all seems quiet from the Gas.
HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 14:25 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Notts County 2-0 Swindon
No hat-trick for David McGoldrick who sees an acrobatic effort come off the crossbar following Sam Austin's cross.
Unlucky.
Postpublished at 14:23 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Cambridge 0-1 Bristol Rovers
Substitute Brandon Njoku makes a lively run down the right flank and crosses a low ball into the penalty area.
There's enough space but glides behind two orange shirts to bobble out of the box.
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:21 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Bradford 2-1 Grimsby
The first changes of the afternoon belong to Grimsby.
Tyrell Warren is exchanged for Lewis Cass.
'It looks like that elusive third goal just isn't coming'published at 14:20 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Notts County 2-0 Swindon
Mark Stallard
Former Notts County striker on BBC Radio Nottingham
More intricate play from Notts County between David McGoldrick, Jodi Jones and Sam Austin, but it's looking like that elusive third goal just isn't coming.
FULL-TIMEpublished at 14:20 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Burton 0-1 Northampton
It’s all over and Northampton pick up their first away win in 11 attempts.
The Cobblers pulled off a bit of a smash and grab job in the second half, riding out some concerted Burton pressure before nicking one at the other end.
Sam Hoskins’ deflected strike in the 86th minute is the difference and Burton will remain firmly bottom of League One.
A first win for Northampton boss Kevin Nolan. Meanwhile, Brewers manager Gary Bowyer's wait to taste victory goes on.

Burton 0-1 Northampton
Northampton win a free-kick inside the Burton half and that might just be that now. They will almost certainly run down the clock here.
GREAT SAVE!published at 14:18 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Cambridge 0-1 Bristol Rovers
Gas keeper Josh Griffiths bravely comes off his line and jumps to collect a dangerous Cambridge cross.
He drops to the floor with some heft though and he's not looking comfortable.
INJURY TIMEpublished at 14:17 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Burton 0-1 Northampton
We're halfway through four added minutes. Can Burton rescue anything at this late, late stage?
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:16 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Burton 0-1 Northampton
Ben Whitfield is on for the last few minutes for Burton. Off goes Kgaogelo Chauke.
GREAT SAVE!published at 14:16 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Notts County 2-0 Swindon
Swindon's substitute keeper Jack Bycroft pulls off a great save to deny Sam Austin who is unable to get Notts County a third.
Postpublished at 14:15 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Burton 0-1 Northampton
Northampton are within touching distance of a first away win in 11 games after that deflected Sam Hoskins strike.
Burton's winless run will stretch to seven games if they can't salvage an equaliser.
GOAL: Bradford 2-1 Grimsbypublished at 14:13 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Cameron McJannet (51 mins)
Cameron McJannet negates his conceded penalty with a goal of his own.
The Mariners are awarded a corner and it falls to Denver Hume, who crosses it into the box.
McJannet is first to rise and nods it into the net, redeemed.
'This game is very much still live'published at 14:12 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Cambridge 0-1 Bristol Rovers
Ed Hadwin
Commentator on BBC Radio Bristol
At 1-0 this game is very much still live.
Other than the Luke Thomas goal neither side has had many concrete, clear-cut chances.
GOAL: Burton 0-1 Northamptonpublished at 14:11 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Sam Hoskins (86 mins)

Huge goal for Northampton! Perhaps their long wait for an away win is set to come to an end.
Mitch Pinnock fizzes a ball into the box and Sam Hoskins smashes it towards goal first time.
It takes a huge deflection off Burton defender Jack Armer and flies beyond the helpless Max Crocombe.
Postpublished at 14:11 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Burton 0-0 Northampton
Northampton’s wait for an away victory looks set to go on unless they can snatch a winner in the last five minutes.
It will be an 11th game on the road without a win if this stays the same. The Cobblers have won just one in their past 19 away from home (D7 L11) before today.
Boss Kevin Nolan is animated on the sidelines. Can he inspire some late drama?
YELLOW CARDpublished at 14:10 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Burton 0-0 Northampton
Northampton's Sam Hoskins gets in an unpleasant verbal exchange with the linesman after fouling Burton's Rumarn Burrell on the touchline and is rightly shown a yellow for dissent.
GOAL: Bradford 2-0 Grimsbypublished at 14:09 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Richie Smallwood (48 mins)
Penalty converted as captain Richie Smallwood slots it into the top left corner.
CLOSE!published at 14:08 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Burton 0-0 Northampton
A half-chance for Burton as Nick Akoto's ball into the box drops for Elliot Watt who juggles the ball in the air and turns on it, firing just wide of the upright.
Good skill by Watt but still no breakthrough for Burton. Is it going to be a frustrating afternoon?
DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 14:07 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January
Cambridge 0-1 Bristol Rovers
Controversy at the Abbey!
Isaac Hutchinson finds the back of the net but while he's celebrating, it's chalked off for offside.
The flag was raised rather late and whether he was or not is up for debate.
That'll sting if Cambridge do manage to strike back.
