    An hour played, still no breakthrough. Are we set for a stalemate?

  4. Hull City 0-0 Sheffield Wednesdaypublished at 59 mins

    Sheffield Wednesday hold firm as Hull break through Mo Diame and send several crosses into the visitors' box.

    Then Owls midfielder Barry Bannan, who looks back to full fitness after that earlier knock, puts in a teasing cross that evades all in blue and white in the box.

  5. YELLOW CARD (Bennett)published at 56 mins

    Hull City 0-0 Sheffield Wednesday

    Sheffield Wednesday left-back Joe Bennett is the first player cautioned, halting a Robert Snodgrass run as the Hull winger attempted to break quickly.

  6. Hull City 0-0 Sheffield Wednesdaypublished at 55 mins

    A second opportunity in a couple of minutes for Hull, who break quickly from inside their own half.

    Abel Hernandez puts in a shot from 18 yards, which Keiren Westwood palms up into the air before clutching it at the second attempt.

    I think that's the first time I've mentioned Hernandez this evening. It's been a quiet night for the Uruguay international so far.

    Meanwhile, it looks like Sheffield Wednesday may be forced into a change soon as Barry Bannan is hobbling off the field in some pain.

  7. Hull City 0-0 Sheffield Wednesdaypublished at 53 mins

    Championship leaders Hull create their best chance of the game, as Andy Robertson's pass finds a way through to Sam Clucas.

    Fifteen yards out, from an angle and on his left foot, Clucas attempts to dink the ball over advancing goalkeeper Keiren Westwood and sends his effort wide of the post.

    The pitch looks like it's still feeling the effects of the rugby league game which was staged at the KC Stadium last night.

    The rugby lines have been covered in bright green paint, while the surface looks a little bobbly to me.

  9. Hull City 0-0 Sheffield Wednesdaypublished at 48 mins

    At the other end, Hull midfielder Mo Diame has a shot from the edge of the box which is deflected just wide of the post for a corner.

    For the neutral, it's much better.

  10. Hull City 0-0 Sheffield Wednesdaypublished at 47 mins

    The first chance of the second period goes to Sheffield Wednesday, but Fernando Forestieri's deflected shot from distance flies safely into the arms of Hull goalkeeper Allan McGregor.

    Having hit the bar from 30 yards in the first half, he fancies his chances of a goal from long range tonight.

  11. KICK-OFFpublished at 45 mins

    Hull City 0-0 Sheffield Wednesday

    No changes for either side. Sheffield Wednesday kick us off in the second half.

  12. HT: Hull City 0-0 Sheffield Wednesdaypublished at 20:47

    The pained expression on the face of Hull winger Robert Snodgrass tells the story of the first half at the KC Stadium.

    Things can only get better, as D:Ream sang in the 1990s.

    Second-half coverage on the way.

    HT: Port Vale 3-0 Southend United

    We're short on goals in the Championship, but Port Vale are going crazy in League One!

    Carl Dickinson, Michael O'Connor and a Ben Coker own goal have put the Valiants three goals up at half-time against Southend at Vale Park.

    A night to forget so far for ex-Hull boss Phil Brown - I wonder if he's giving another on-field team-talk...

    Wolves head coach Kenny Jackett admitted to being "hurt" by his side's "rotten run" after Tuesday's 3-0 defeat at Brentford.

    Tomorrow they host Derby County, who are firmly back in the hunt for a top-two finish after winning their last two matches.

  16. HALF-TIMEpublished at 20:32

    Hull City 0-0 Sheffield Wednesday

    That's the end of the first half, and it's goalless.

    One moment to remember - Fernando Forestieri's superb long-range shot that rattled Hull's crossbar. Other than that it's been fairly even, with little in the way of clear chances for either side.

    One minute of added time to come.

  18. Hull City 0-0 Sheffield Wednesdaypublished at 42 mins

    Sam Hutchinson brings down David Meyler outside the box and Hull get a free-kick 25 yards from goal, left of centre.

    Robert Snodgrass is over it, he fancies it... he shoots straight at Keiren Westwood. A comfortable save.

    What a fantastic strike by Wednesday's Forestieri there - I don't think McGregor in goal expected that, by the time he'd reacted the ball had gone past him.

  20. FORESTIERI HITS THE BARpublished at 37 mins

    Hull City 0-0 Sheffield Wednesday

    Out of nowhere, Sheffield Wednesday hit the woodwork!

    Fernando Forestieri shoots right-footed from 30 yards and is inches away from his 13th goal of the season.

    Allan McGregor well beaten. Would have been a screamer.
