Norwich v Wolves: Cameron Jerome returns to the starting line-up for Norwich, with Jonny Howson also coming in after recovering from a calf problem. Jon Dadi Bodvarsson is recalled to the Wolves team, while on-loan Derby forward Andreas Weimann is named on the bench and could make his debut.

Nottingham Forest v Bristol City: Jamie Ward goes straight into Nottingham Forest's starting line-up after being recalled from his loan at Burton by caretaker boss Gary Brazil. Goalkeeper Fabian Giefer has received international clearance to make his debut for Bristol City after joining on loan from Schalke.

Wigan v Brentford: Wigan Athletic make just one change to the starting line-up with injured Yanic Wildschut replaced by David Perkins, while recent arrivals Marcus Browne and Ryan Tunnicliffe are on the bench. Bretford are unchanged and there is no room for striker Scott Hogan on the bench, with the 14-goal frontman the subject of transfer speculation.

And that's the end of a feisty west London derby.

Ryan Manning's first-half goal was cancelled out by Chris Martin's late strike for Fulham.

Somehow it's got to 14:30 - so let's turn out attentions to the rest of today's EFL action, starting with some team news...

Not too much by the looks of things. Fulham skipper Tom Cairney and striker Chris Martin, along with QPR defender Joel Lynch are shown yellow cards and that's the end of matters.

Fulham have a free-kick in a dangerous area but it is cleared easily.

Oh dear, it's all gone off again on the pitch and this is getting really ugly.

Players are squaring up to each other, there is pushing and shoving. 

What's referee Keith Stroud going to do here?

It's all kicking off on the touchline now.

Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic is in the thick of things, QPR staff are getting involved, there's pushing and shoving.

It calms down quickly though. 

Giant striker Matt Smith is into the action straight away.

The Fulham substitute holds off a defender but fires wide with his left boot from the edge of the box.

There are four minutes of stoppage time.

It's absolutely frantic football in this last five minutes.

The ball pinballs around the QPR box before Massimo Luongo skews wildly over his own bar.

Fulham teenager Ryan Sessegnon then heads the corner over the bar.

The Whites make their final substitution - Matt Smith replaces Sone Aluko.

It's the Grant Hall show at the moment.

The QPR defender gets his head on a corner but nods over.

Another chance for QPR goes begging.

A free-kick from the left somehow finds Grant Hall in the box but the centre-back's cheeky back heel goes wide.

Without wanting to sound harsh - Hall wasn't the man you'd want in that situation.

QPR then make their second substitution - Kazenga LuaLua replaces Jamie Mackie.

Oh my goodness, QPR are so close to retaking the lead.

Conor Washington smashes a shot low towards goal, David Button can't cling on, but just manages to grab the ball at the second attempt with Jamie Mackie steaming in.

What a final 10 minutes in store here!

Fulham make their second switch. 16-year-old Ryan Sessegnon comes on for Lucas Piazon.

Seconds later Fulham winger Sone Aluko fires towards goal from the edge of the area but it's tipped over by Alex Smithies.

Yep, Slavisa Jokanovic is fuming.

Fulham win a corner but Stefan Johansen pings it over the head of everyone and out for a throw in.

That was a really promising opening for Fulham but Scott Malone has over hit in.

Chris Martin needs to either be more selfish and shoot himself or give Malone a better ball.

Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic will be tearing his hair out.

Yet another attack from his side sees a terrible final ball.

Scott Malone finds some room on the left-hand side of the box but his cross is overhit and into no man's land.

20 minutes left - surely there's another goal in this one?

QPR make their first switch as Conor Washington comes on for Idrissa Sylla.

It's easy to see why Fulham had scored 43 goals in 25 league games before today - they are such an attacking side.

But it's just not happening today.

Tom Cairney gets onto the end of a cross but can't get the ball from under his feet and it's booted away.

It was Diego Maradona-esque!

That's as blatant a handball as you will see!

QPR forward Idrissa Sylla climbs high in the box but literally punches the ball into the back of the net.

The Guinea man goes into the book for his troubles.
