Since he left his job as Leeds boss in April 2013, Neil Warnock has now won all four league meetings against his former side.

Tonight's win may feel like the most significant, as his Cardiff side haved leapfrogged United at the top of the Championship.

With that, it's time for us to bid you farewell and thank you for joining us, on another bad night for Bolton and Sunderland, but a good one for Norwich, Preston, Bristol City and Aston Villa.

Do come back tomorrow at 19:15 for more EFL action. Until then, au revoir.

Andy Pearsall: Promotion for Villa this season looks like a cake walk.

Anthony Thornley: PNE staying quietly under the radar picking off teams.

Aatif Ehsan: Preston deserve that win. Hope we can be in the play-offs or hopefully champions.

Aatif thinking big, and why not? North End are a point off second place and only four off the top after tonight's 2-1 win at Hull.

Tomorrow from 19:15 BST, we'll have live text coverage of Sheffield United v Wolves - two more sides challenging at the top of the Championship.

One of Wanderers' star performers early in the season has signed a new contract today...

Ned, a Cardiff fan: Fantastic start to the season. Warnock looks to be working his magic once again. On cloud nine right now.

Cardiff boss Neil Warnock tells Sky Sports: "I said to big Sol Bamba 'you're my man tonight' and I thought he was outstanding.

"The wide lads did their job and we played some good stuff in the last third.

"I'm disappointed to concede but you can't be too greedy, can you? It was a really good, all-round performance."

Marco Bhakar: Notts County look rejuvenated under Kevin Nolan & Alan Hardy. Great to see the EFL's oldest football club on the up!

• Notts County thrash Exeter City 3-0 away from home to comfortably win the battle of the top two sides and consign Exeter to back-to-back defeats.
• Cambridge beat Forest Green Rovers 3-0 to send the Gloucestershire side bottom of League Two.
• Third-placed Luton Town held to a 0-0 draw by Morecambe, while fourth-placed Accrington move level on points with the Hatters by coming from behind to beat managerless Port Vale 2-1.
• Coventry come from behind to beat 10-man Swindon 2-1.
• Chesterfield lose 3-2 to Yeovil to slip to a third successive defeat.

Cardiff defender Sol Bamba: "It's massive. The gaffer said at half-time 'we need to make a statement tonight' and that's what we did.

"Now let's see how far we can go."

Victories don't come much more routine than that in the Championship.

Bristol City, who are now eight league games unbeaten, were utterly dominant after half-time and appear in good shape under head coach Lee Johnson.

Famara Diedhiou and Aden Flint scored either side of half-time.

Bolton's task of staying up doesn't look to be getting any easier, without a goal in seven games in all competitions and looking ominously short on quality, even at this relatively early stage of the season.

• League leaders Shrewsbury Town beat Doncaster thanks to Arthur Gnahoua's injury-time goal, and maintain their unbeaten EFL record.
• Managerless Oldham beat Peterborough 3-2, despite playing over 30 minutes with 10 men.
• Fleetwood Town beat Bradford 3-0 with goals from Jordi Hiwula, Devante Cole and Ashley Hunter.
• Portsmouth and Bury are also 3-0 home winners, beating Bristol Rovers and Oxford United respectively.
• Blackburn defeat Rotherham 2-0 with goals from Marcus Antonsson and Harry Chapman.

Kev: Sat in Central Park in 30 degree heat and log on to see Sunderland getting beat again! Great way to ruin my afternoon sun.

Chevy Chase Is Ace: Sunderland are a direct repeat of last season, dire defending and equally rubbish in attack. Maya, Asoro, Watmore, PLEASE RETURN.

B3N0: SAFC, poor, clueless, no guts, no heart, no strategy, no leadership, no good.

Safe to say, Sunderland fans are not happy tonight, as their side's poor run goes on.

Cardiff winger Junior Hoilett tells Sky Sports:

"Since last season, we've seen the gaffer bring great confidence to the team. We're here to make a statement."

It's a fully-deserved win for Neil Warnock's Cardiff against one of his former clubs.

Kenneth Zohore, with two goals, was clinical, but Junior Hoilett shone as well, as Cardiff went about making quite a statement.

• Preston score late at Hull to win 2-1 and go within a point of second place.
• Aston Villa thrash Burton 4-0 and are two points off the play-offs.
• Sunderland remain in the relegation zone with a 5-2 defeat at Ipswich.
• Norwich continue their good form as James Maddison scores the only goal in a victory at Middlesbrough.
• Bottom club Bolton lose 2-0 at Bristol City and fail to score for a sixth successive Championship game.

There it is! The whistle goes and Cardiff move to the top of the Championship, while Leeds go down to only their second league defeat of the season.

Cardiff, easing towards a big three points now, take off Sol Bamba in stoppage time.

The former Leeds man gets a huge ovation as he goes off. He's been pretty solid once again.

Peterborough's unbeaten away record looks to be coming to an end, with 10-man Oldham taking the lead after some woeful defending. Eoin Doyle squares for Dan Gardner to score before making it safe at 3-1 with his second of the evening.

Portsmouth are comfortable against Bristol Rovers, with Brett Pitman's second of the night and eighth league goal of the season putting them 3-0 up.

Nick Powell's penalty has put Wigan 1-0 up late on against Plymouth.

They're now in to stoppage time at the Cardiff City Stadium, with four minutes signalled.

The hosts are looking comfortable against 10-man Leeds.
