  1. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:04 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Luton 1-0 Portsmouth

    A half-time change from Pompey. The booked Matt Ritchie makes way for Liverpool loanee Kaide Gordon. The visitors need a bump after a sloppy opening 45 minutes.

  2. KICK-OFFpublished at 16:02 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    #bbcefl

    Just the two goals in the first half of our four games, that'll never do.

    Here's hoping for plenty more in the second halves, which are getting under way right about... now.

    Luton haven't won since 20 December when they beat Derby.

    It's a run of 12 league games which saw them fall to the bottom of the Championship.

    Do you think they can hold on for a much-needed victory against Pompey today?

    Thumbs up for yes, thumbs down for no.

  4. 'Rams can't switch off in the second half'published at 15:54 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    HT: Middlesbrough 0-0 Derby

    Malcolm Christie
    Former Derby striker on BBC Radio Derby

    The majority of that game has been in the defensive half.

    We can frustrate them as we saw at Pride Park, but there has to be some good play from us.

    We can't switch off in the second half. If we stay in the game long enough, we might create opportunities.

    This kind of performance is only worth it if we come out with something from it.

  5. 'Boro need more aggression'published at 15:53 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    HT: Middlesbrough 0-0 Derby

    Neil Maddison
    Former Middlesbrough midfielder on BBC Tees

    We've controlled the majority of the game but if you don't get your shots off you're not going to score goals.

    We just need a little bit more aggression in the final third.

  6. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:49 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Stoke 0-0 Watford

    Not much in the way of chances at either end, to be honest...

    Watford have had a lot of the ball but done little with it while Stoke probably came closest as Lewis Koumas dragged an effort wide from just inside the area.

    Won't live long in the memory, that half.

  7. Postpublished at 15:49 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Stoke 0-0 Watford

    Edo Kayembe stretches to meet a low cross from Tom Ince near the corner flag in stoppage time but can only divert his effort well off target.

  8. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:48 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Luton 1-0 Portsmouth

    Luton are off the bottom of the table, and deserve it.

    Jordan Clark grabbed his first goal since November, and his fourth of the season, and that is the difference at Kenilworth Road.

  9. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:48 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Middlesbrough 0-0 Derby

    Half-time has probably come at the wrong time for Boro.

    They've had 74% possession and 10 shots...but only two of them have been on target.

  10. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 15:48 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Middlesbrough 0-0 Derby

    Boro are getting closer and closer!

    Finn Azaz's uses some great skill to get the ball onto his left foot on the edge of the box before placing the ball against the post.

    So close.

  11. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:47 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    QPR 0-1 Sheff Utd

    Chris Wilder will be pretty glad to get the Blades back in the dressing room.

    Ben Brereton Diaz headed home Vini Souza's inviting cross from close range after 10 minutes to put the visitors ahead, however QPR have bossed much of the half and United keeper Michael Cooper has denied Yang Min-Hyeok and Ilias Chair while Michael Frey has also come close and saw a close-range finish ruled out for offside.

  12. Postpublished at 15:45 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Luton 1-0 Portsmouth

    Jordan Clark is in the mood today.

    He already has one goal and almost has another. He fashions a shot, after some good build-up, but can't beat Nicolas Schmid from the edge of the box.

  13. Postpublished at 15:44 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Middlesbrough 0-0 Derby

    Malcolm Christie
    Former Derby striker on BBC Radio Derby

    Middlesbrough are a good team when they've got loads of space to play in.

    The question to ask is how good they are when they're up against a low block.

  14. Postpublished at 15:43 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Middlesbrough 0-0 Derby

    Morgan Whittaker tries his luck from 25 yards with plenty of Derby players crowding him. The contact isn't good enough as the ball heads wide.

  15. YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:42 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Luton 1-0 Portsmouth

    Pompey are still yet to have a shot on target and frustration is building. Josh Murphy has been complaining to the referee that he hasn't had any protection and then gets booked for clattering into Liam Walsh.

  16. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 15:41 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    QPR 0-1 Sheff Utd

    So close to a leveller.

    Ilias Chair's ranging cross is nodded into the middle by Jimmy Dunne, with Michael Frey scrambling the ball past Michael Cooper and into the net from close range, only for the celebrations to be cut short.

    He might just have strayed offside in the build-up.

    QPR probably deserve to be level, but they're not yet...

  17. GREAT SAVE!published at 15:38 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    QPR 0-1 Sheff Utd

    QPR giving the promotion-chasers a real game here.

    Michael Cooper needs to be on his toes again to dive to his left and keep out Ilias Chair's curling effort which looks destined for the corner.

    He scored a beauty in his last home game against Derby, of course...

    Kenneth Paal's curling corner then needs to be clawed off his line by Cooper.

    One-way traffic at present.

  18. 'Boro need to make it count'published at 15:36 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Middlesbrough 0-0 Derby

    Neil Maddison
    Former Middlesbrough midfielder on BBC Tees

    We've got to make this attacking count as there's only one time where we've really tested the keeper.

    We've played nice football at times but we need more bite in the final third.

  19. Postpublished at 15:35 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Middlesbrough 0-0 Derby

    Boro have had 75 per cent possession but have been struggling to break down a stubborn Derby backline.

  20. YELLOW CARDSpublished at 15:35 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Stoke 0-0 Watford

    Bit of a melee in midfield after Yasser Larouci goes down with an injury after a forceful challenge from Junior Tchamadeu, which will require treatment.

    Stoke's Ben Pearson and Imran Louza of Watford have their names taken by ref Tom Nield after the fracas.
