Thought that Blackpool would crumble easier than a block of feta cheese? Think again. The League Two side almost equalise. Armand Gnanduillet plays the ball across the six-yard box to team-mate Jim McAlister, whose goal-bound shot is cleared.

Off the post! This game has taken a while to get going but Adama Diomande wakes up the Hull fans with a rasping shot that beats the keeper but smacks back off the woodwork. Best chance of the game so far.  

Michy Batshuayi is put through on goal and it has got to be a goal... nope! The forward rolls the ball wide of the post. A terrible miss and Antonio Conte is fuming in the Chelsea dugout.

Getting feisty at Sixfields.

No clear-cut chances to speak of but Northampton midfielder John-Joe O'Toole goes into the book for a hefty tackle on West Brom's James McClean.

The Baggies player is shown a yellow too shortly after for reacting to the challenge.

Everton are pressing for the opener at Goodison Park. Ross Barkley - captain for the night - drills in a low corner to Romelu Lukaku, whose shot is hacked off the line by Yeovil defender Alex Lawless.

There could be a shock on the cards at Ewood Park with League Two Crewe leading at Championship side Blackburn thanks to Billy Bingham's effort.

There might be another surprise at Loftus Road with QPR 1-0 down to League One side Rochdale, who scored through Matty Lund's header.

Meanwhile, Helder Costa and Jed Wallace have put Wolves 2-0 up ahead against Cambridge United.

Bristol Rovers are having to deal with a lot of pressure at the moment, with Chelsea well on top. 

The visitors don't look particularly desperate to venture too far forward just yet. They practised penalties this morning. Playing the long game?

No real chances in this game, although Ahmed Elmohamady has to be alert to get a foot in and deny Troy Brown racing through on goal. Hull have to be careful, Exeter are well up for this one.

Not much happening at Vicarage Road. Oh, hang on... Here's the first chance of the evening. Hornets skipper Troy Deeney lurks in the Gillingham penalty area, dropping off his marker to meet Ikechi Anya's cut-back. But his shot lacks some beef and is easily gathered by away keeper Stuart Nelson.

Michy Batshuayi spots Steve Mildenhall off his line and tries the lob, but Mildenhall backpeddles quickly to knock behind for a corner. That comes to nothing, but Chelsea well on top in this game.

How old is Mildenhall, by the way? Seems to have been around forever.

Last season's League Two champions Northampton almost take a shock lead against Premier League side West Brom, but Lewin Nyatanga's flicked header goes wide.

Making his first appearance of the season, Charlie Adam is looking to make an impression early on, but his speculative drive is not causing the Stevenage stopper any problems.

Liverpool weathered the early Burton storm and come close to breaking the deadlock through Divock Origi, but the Belgian's shot is straight at the Burton goalkeeper.

Cracking through ball from Sadio Mane to play his team-mate in.

Swansea are enjoying all of the ball at Peterborough in these early stages as Ki Sung-yueng has a pop from distance. The shot deflects behind for a corner.

Romelu Lukaku has given Everton a boost by saying he wants to stay at Goodison - and he nearly gives them the lead on his first start of the season. The Belgium striker smashes a sledgehammer of a shot just past the post.
