HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:49 Greenwich Mean Time
Middlesbrough 0-1 Coventry
Difficult to see how Middlesbrough get anything out of this one.
Coventry had already had two goals disallowed for offside before Hayden Hackney collected a second yellow card and was sent-off by referee Thomas Bramall.
Haji Wright then had a shot blocked before the visitors finally got themselves in front with Bobby Thomas heading in a Josh Eccles cross.
The dismissal of Hackney forced Boro' into a change with Johnny Howson replacing Finn Azaz and Howson's come closest for the home side but his shot was blocked.
HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:48 Greenwich Mean Time
Cardiff 0-0 Norwich
It took a while but Norwich got on top as the half wore on in South Wales.
Borja Sainz has forced Jak Alnwick into an excellent save while Shane Duffy has sent two headers wide of goal.
Cardiff actually started the brighter with Chris Willock's early shot which went wide the closest they've come to breaking the deadlock.

Sheff Wed 1-1 Watford
Another smart save from Daniel Bachmann to keep the scores level.
This time the Austrian is bravely off his line to smother Josh Windass' effort.
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 15:47 Greenwich Mean Time
QPR 0-0 Sunderland
QPR are doing well against Sunderland so far, even leading the shots statistic against the biggest attackers in the league, but they do have to use an early substitution.
Harrison Ashby needs to come off so Hevertton Santos is on to see out the half.
HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:47 Greenwich Mean Time
Leeds 3-0 Plymouth
Leeds cruising back up to second, Plymouth wishing they'd stayed at home.
Goals from Dan James, Joel Piroe and Brenden Aaronsen have the promotion chasers in full control.
Wayne Rooney's men did come from three goals down to draw with Preston last week.
Could they do it again today? Well, given they haven't had a shot of any kind yet I'm going to stick my neck on the line and say no.
YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:45 Greenwich Mean Time
Preston 0-1 Bristol City
Preston's Ali McCann is the first name in the naughty book for a pull back on Jason Knight.
Postpublished at 15:43 Greenwich Mean Time
Sheff Wed 1-1 Watford
Barry Bannan sees a shot well saved by Watford keeper Daniel Bachmann.
Entertaining stuff this.

Bobby Thomas (42 mins)
Boro' can't hold on...
Josh Eccles sends in a cross and Bobby Thomas is unmarked inside the six-yard area to power a header home.

Cardiff 0-0 Norwich
Norwich getting on top as head towards the break.
Ante Crnac has a shot blocked and from the resulting corner an almighty goalmouth scramble is eventually brought to an end by the referee's whistle for a foul.

Leeds 3-0 Plymouth

The possession, the dominance and it could be more because Plymouth do look poor.

Middlesbrough 0-0 Coventry
Coventry close to getting themselves ahead and it's Haji Wright again.
The five goal striker gets a shot away but George Edmundson throws himself in the way to block it.
Boro' need the half-time whistle to come.
GOAL: Leeds 3-0 Plymouthpublished at 15:39 Greenwich Mean Time
Brenden Aaronsen (39 mins)
My word.
USA international Brenden Aaronson gets in on the act.
Dan James crosses in for fellow goalscorer Joel Piroe but his flick doesn't quite come off, no matter, Aaronsen is there to hammer it home.
Plymouth's goal difference could take a real battering here.
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 15:38 Greenwich Mean Time
Preston 0-1 Bristol City
The injury woes continue for Bristol City.
Joe Williams requires treatment on the pitch. He tries to play on but can't and needs to be switched out with Marcus McGuane.
YELLOW CARDSpublished at 15:36 Greenwich Mean Time
Middlesbrough 0-0 Coventry
Referee Thomas Bramall is having a busy afternoon.
He's sent-off Boro's Hayden Hackney and now booked Coventry's Jack Rudoni and Brandon Thomas-Asante.
GOAL: Sheff Wed 1-1 Watfordpublished at 15:36 Greenwich Mean Time
Michael Smith (33 mins)
The in-form striker does it again for Wednesday!
Marvin Johnson hits a powerful cross into the area and Michael Smith, who scored an absolute beauty at Portsmouth last week, scores a slightly less spectacular one today.
'it might be a cricket score'published at 15:35 Greenwich Mean Time
Leeds 2-0 Plymouth
Neil Redfearn
Former Leeds manager on BBC Radio LeedsBrilliant round the box with the second phase movements, and then great composure when it drops to Piroe.
Another great finish, it looks like this might be a cricket score.

Joel Piroe (33 mins)
Uh oh, have the floodgates opened?
It's a bit of a mess but Leeds wont care.
Joel Piroe gets his fifth of the season and Leeds have two goals in three minutes.
The Whites are going back up to second.

Leeds 1-0 Plymouth
Adam Pope
BBC Radio Leeds commentatorHe's leaning back - what he manages to get on it leaning back, he gets the accuracy and the power on it, amazing finish from James.
A really lovely, smart finish into the top corner.

Middlesbrough 0-0 Coventry
Ten man Middlesbrugh have reacted well to the dismissal of Hayden Hackney and Johnny Howson smashes in a shot and Bobby Thomas does well to block it.
No goals but there's plenty going on.
