    Newcastle 1-2 Bristol City

    Huge challenge from Bristol City's Aden Flint.

    Ayoze Perez seemed destined to make it 2-2 but the big defender produced a superb tackle to take the ball away from the Spaniard.

    Newcastle 1-2 Bristol City

    Bristol City are under all sorts of pressure here.

    The hosts are desperately searching for a second goal to level the match.

    Barnsley 0-1 Huddersfield

    Still just one goal in it at Oakwell.

    Huddersfield substitute Jon Gorenc-Stankovic has seen an effort cleared off the line for the promotion chasers.

    Aston Villa 1-0 Derby

    Alan Hutton goes close to a second for Villa.

    The full-back's shot is well blocked by Alex Pearce.

    As it stands, Fleetwood are going second in League One.

    Uwe Rosler's Cod Army are unbeaten in their last 16 league games and are on course to stretch that run, currently leading Northampton 2-0 thanks to Bobby Grant's second-half goal.

    Rochdale, 2-1 down at Peterborough, are down to nine men after Donal McDermott was dismissed for serious foul play.

    In League Two, league leaders Doncaster have gone 2-1 up at home to Accrington through John Marquis.

    A big moment at the bottom of the EFL as well - Cheltenham keeper Scott Brown has saved a penalty at struggling Leyton Orient to preserve their 1-0 lead. Callum Kennedy saw his spot-kick palmed wide.

    Newcastle 1-2 Bristol City

    Bristol City so close to restoring their two-goal lead!

    David Cotterill's free-kick is briliantly kept out by Karl Darlow before a Newcastle defender deflects the rebound off his own post and behind for a corner.

    Cardiff 2-1 Fulham

    Six goals in six games for Cardiff's Kenneth Zohore, and his second of the afternoon is a very, very good one - a 20-yard left-footed shot.

    Neil Warnock's side have completed the turnaround against Fulham.

    Jonjo Shelvey

    A real mess of a goal but Newcastle won't care at all.

    Jonjo Shelvey  bundles the ball in after Bristol City fail to deal with a Christian Atsu cross.

    Goal might go down as a Korey Smith own goal...

    Newcastle 0-2 Bristol City

    The visitors are holding firm at the moment.

    They've been industrious all over the pitch and have limited Newcastle to shots from range.

    David Cotterill forces a save from home keeper Karl Darlow as Bristol City go in search of a third.

    There have been no second-half goals anywhere in the EFL so far. Sort it out, fellas.

    Barnsley 0-1 Huddersfield

    Barnsley are not rolling over against Huddersfield.

    The hosts have made a bright start against the Yorkshire rivals as they look to get back into the game.

    Wigan 0-0 Nottingham Forest

    We haven't mentioned events at the DW Stadium much this afternoon. The main reason for that is because there's not a lot to mention.

    Just the one shot on target in the first half.

    Newcastle 0-2 Bristol City

    Bristol City striker Aaron Wilbraham is booked for a cynical foul.

    I have a feeling the veteran striker probably won't be too upset.

    Aston Villa 1-0 Derby

    Andre GreenImage source, Rex Features

    Andre Green hits the post for hosts Aston Villa. The teenage winger's diving header comes back off the woodwork.

    That would have been his first goal for the club.

    Newcastle 0-2 Bristol City

    Ayoze Perez thumps an effort narrowly over the bar for the hosts.

    They need a goal quickly if they're to turn this around.

    Laurence-Elliott: Don't worry Newcastle fans, from a Bristol City fan. Just look at our fixtures and you will see many times when 2-0 up and we've lost or drawn.

    Joe:  Newcastle have 2nd and 3rd to play after this - bad results could see them back in the play-off spots (and Huddersfield back up in them!)

    Chris:  Checks Newcastle score. *Facepalm*

    Gillingham 2-0 Southend

    Josh WrightImage source, Rex Features

    A pretty horrendous end to the first half for Southend at Gillingham.

    They conceded a penalty in the 40th minute which was scored by Josh Wright.

    Phil Brown's men then conceded a second goal in stoppage time when Wright bundled home his second.

    Just to compound their misery, Ryan Inniss was sent off for a second bookable offence in the seventh minute of time added on.

  18. League Two half-timespublished at 15:59 Greenwich Mean Time 25 February 2017

    It's as you were at the top of League Two, with the teams in the top five all drawing.

    Leaders Doncaster were behind early on against Accrington but levelled through Tommy Rowe midway through the first half.

    Exeter trail 2-1 at home to Blackpool and Stevenage are heading into the top six at the moment courtesy of a 2-0 lead at Crewe.

    At the bottom, Cheltenham could move six points clear of the relegation zone if they hold on to their 1-0 lead at Leyton Orient, while bottom club Newport are drawing 1-1 at Mansfield.

    Newcastle trail Bristol City, meaning Huddersfield will close the gap on them to just two points if they can hold on to the 1-0 lead they have at Barnsley.

    Elsewhere, seventh-placed Fulham are drawing 1-1 with resurgent Cardiff City and Preston and QPR are also tied at 1-1. Aiden McGeady equalised for the hosts.

    Lowly Rotherham are 1-0 down at Brentford thanks to Jota's goal and it's 0-0 between Wigan and Nottingham Forest.

  20. League One half-timespublished at 15:53 Greenwich Mean Time 25 February 2017

    Sheffield United are heading seven points clear at the top of the table as things stand. Billy Sharp's goal has given the Blades the advantage at the break against Bolton.

    Scunthorpe, second at the start of the day, trail at Bristol Rovers but, in the chasing pack, Fleetwood and Bradford are both ahead.

    Bury look to be heading away from danger as they lead 1-0 at Charlton, while Swindon, 2-0 up at bottom side Coventry, are boosting their survival hopes.

    Rochdale, 2-1 down at Peterborough, had Joe Rafferty sent off just before the break.

    Elsewhere, Oxford, MK Dons and Gillingham are all ahead in their matches.
