    Leicester have put themselves about, they are working hard, they are playing for each other and they are up for this. But this Hull team are high on confidence.

  2. CLOSE!published at 16:06 Greenwich Mean Time 4 March 2017

    Leicester 1-1 Hull

    Two chances in two minutes for Harry Maguire.

    The former Sheffield United man is causing allsorts of problems inside the opposition box, this time with a header which is straight at Kasper Schmeichel.

  3. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 16:04 Greenwich Mean Time 4 March 2017

    Leicester 1-1 Hull

    Hull have been on the back foot for much of the game, but almost take the lead for a second time.

    Kamil Grosicki swings in a corner which Harry Maguire pokes a foot at and with Kasper Schmeichel beaten, the ball cannons off the outside of the post.

  4. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:04 Greenwich Mean Time 4 March 2017

    Stoke 2-0 Middlesbrough

    It was a limp display by the Middlesbrough forward line in the first half and Aitor Karanka decides to do something about that, bringing on Cristhian Stuani for Gaston Ramirez.

    Off we go again in our 15:00 GMT games.

    William Egan: Middlesbrough look completely doomed if they keep on playing like this.

    Jay: It's turning out to be a day of 1-1 scorelines!

    Mia Suneson: Leicester should appoint Pardew & get some British fighting spirit back again! Would keep them up.

  8. EFL updatepublished at 15:55 Greenwich Mean Time 4 March 2017

    A great game going on at Hillsborough. Norwich City pulled a goal back through Cameron Jerome, but the comeback didn't last long. Morgan Fox headed  Sheffield Wednesday  back into a two-goal lead just before the break.

    Fulham's push for a play-off spot is looking good, they lead Preston North End 1-0 at half-time to move within five points of sixth spot.

    In League One it's second against third and Fleetwood Town are a goal up against Scunthorpe United .

    And in League Two, second placed  Plymouth doubled their lead from the penalty spot on the half-time whistle against Carlisle United as leaders Doncaster went in 0-0 at Crawley Town .

    You can follow the second-half on our dedicated EFL live page.

    Rainmaker Law:  With all due respect, Marko Arnautovic should be playing for a bigger club. Impressive footballer.

    Joshua Byers Warner: Hull may wish they never scored that goal because Leicester are really going at them!

  10. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:50 Greenwich Mean Time 4 March 2017

    Watford 1-2 Southampton

    That late goal puts Southampton ahead at the interval.

  11. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:49 Greenwich Mean Time 4 March 2017

    Swansea 1-1 Burnley

    The whistle goes for half-time and a couple of Swansea players are straight over to referee Anthony Taylor, presumably to express their exasperation at the controversial penalty awarded to Burnley.

    Swansea should be out of sight at the break but instead they go in level.

  12. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:49 Greenwich Mean Time 4 March 2017

    Stoke 2-0 Middlesbrough

    Marko Arnautovic at the double.

  13. Postpublished at 15:49 Greenwich Mean Time 4 March 2017

    Watford 1-2 Southampton

    The Saints are showing little sign of an EFL Cup final hangover.

    Despite going behind against Watford, they have turned the game around.

    Nathan Redmond starts off this move, playing the ball into James Ward-Prowse and onto Dusan Tadic.

    The first goalscorer turns provider, laying the ball into the path of Redmond to stroke in across goal and in at the far post.

  15. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:46 Greenwich Mean Time 4 March 2017

    Leicester 1-1 Hull

    Both clubs seeking survival and it is all square at the interval.

  16. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:46 Greenwich Mean Time 4 March 2017

    West Brom 0-0 Crystal Palace

    No goals but plenty of chances.

  17. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 15:46 Greenwich Mean Time 4 March 2017

    Swansea 1-1 Burnley

    Man of the match for Burnley? The woodwork. It denies Swansea for the third time in this game as Fernando Llorente smashes a shot against the bar. The striker holds his hands behind his head and looks on in frustration. The Swansea players can't quite believe what's happening in this game.

  18. PENALTY APPEALpublished at 15:44 Greenwich Mean Time 4 March 2017

    West Brom 0-0 Crystal Palace

    West Brom players want a penalty as Salomon Rondon goes tumbling inside the area following a challenge. Nothing given.

  19. Postpublished at 15:43 Greenwich Mean Time 4 March 2017

    Stoke 2-0 Middlesbrough

    You don't score at home for 308 days and then two goals come along at once!

    Marko Arnautovic doubles the hosts' lead as he fires in from Peter Crouch's knockdown.

    For a Boro side that doesn't score much, getting something from this tie now looks like a tough ask.
