    Championship

    Alan Judge has restored Brentford's three-goal advantage against Huddersfield from the penalty spot after Mustapha Carayol gave Huddersfield a glimmer of hope. It's 4-1 at Griffin Park.

    Burnley look to have sealed a first win six games, Scott Arfield grabbing a second goal before record signing Andre Gray made it 3-0 at home to Charlton. QPR have taken the lead at Bristol City and there's a surprise on the cards as Rotherham have doubled their lead against Hull thanks to Joe Newell.

    Zach Clough has levelled for Bolton at home to Fulham as Neil Lennon's side search for a first win in 16 games.

    Everton 1-2 Leicester

    Different corner, same outcome! Riyad Mahrez steers his penalty calmly into the bottom corner. Are Leicester Christmas number ones?

    Stoke 0-1 Crystal Palace

    Stoke are not getting the rub of the green.

    Marko Arnautovic advances into the penalty area before his shot takes a massive deflection, leaves goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey stranded, but the ball bounces just wide.

    Man Utd 1-2 Norwich

    Is that the breakthrough Manchester United needed? A cross into the box is not dealt with, Anthony Martial reacts with predatory instincts to toe the ball away from the last man and then hammer it into the roof of the net.

    Chelsea 3-1 Sunderland

    A massive chance for Sunderland.

    Sam Allardyce has his head in his hands as Jermain Defoe waltzes through the Chelsea defence before wildly firing a shot wide.

    He has to hit the target.

    Jamie Vardy driving at the Everton defence, Jamie Vardy shown inside onto his right foot, Jamie Vardy curling one, curling one, wide! Not far wide though. Lovely.

    Chelsea 3-1 Sunderland

    This game is far from over.

    The busy Duncan Watmore bustles his way along the 18-yard box, tumbles, but never a penalty.

    He looks almost apologetic.

    League One

    Scunthorpe know all about Billy Sharp's goal-scoring prowess, the forward finding the net 56 times in 95 appearances for the Iron earlier in his career. So it comes as no surprise that he has scored against them for Sheffield United, who lead 1-0.  

    Aaron Martin has given Coventry the lead against Oldham with his first goal for the club in his 60th appearance.

    Huge cheers as fall guy Marouane Fellaini is replaced by Ander Herrera just after Wayne Rooney miscues an overhead kick over the top. Old Trafford is not a happy place. Apart from a delirious yellow and green section of course, and Delia..

    "Adam Smith cuts in on his left-hand side and drives into the bottom corner. He's been involved in a lot this afternoon - that goal could cost West Brom dear. Three wins in three for Bournemouth? Amazing."

    Southampton 0-2 Tottenham

    It  looks a long way back for Southampton from here but Graziano Pelle is keeping the faith. He's had one effort side-footed over the top and another blocked. Can the Saints come back?

    Stoke 0-1 Crystal Palace

    Crystal Palace are so dangerous on the break.

    Yannick Bolasie crosses from the right and James McArthur slides in to meet but, put off by goalkeeper Jack Butland, he can only divert wide.

    League Two

    What are the odds? Rare victories are in sight for York, who have lost their last nine games but lead Morecambe 2-1, and Yeovil, who are without a league win in 13 attempts, who are 1-0 ahead at Leyton Orient

    Garry Thompson has broken the deadlock for Wycombe against Oxford with his sixth goal of the season.

    Chris Sutton
    Former Chelsea & Norwich striker on Final Score

    "It's an old- fashioned toe-punt, but that is a brilliantly clever finish from Alex Tettey, because David de Gea is caught by surprise - he just wasn't ready for it."
