  1. goal

    GOAL: Millwall 2-1 Middlesbroughpublished at 16:46 British Summer Time 4 August 2018

    Martin Braithwaite (87 mins)

    Middlesbrough finally get their reward for hanging in this one at The Den.

    Martin Braithwaite pulls a goal back after Marcus Tavernier found a lovely ball across the face of the Millwall goal and Braithwaite was there to race on to it and finish.

    A minute plus stoppages to go.

    Ipswich 1-2 Blackburn

    Young Ipswich striker Ben Morris has been thrown on with 10 minutes to go and he nearly finds the leveller for his side.

    Great break and cut inside in the area but his shot is well saved by David Raya's body and behind for a corner.

    League One and League Two update

    Burton pull one back against Rochdale through Liam Boyce in their first game in League One since relegation, but they still trail 2-1.

    Southend's campaign has got off to a terrible start, and at one point they were 3-0 down, at home, to Doncaster. Tom Hopper has pulled one back on his debut - but it's a small consolation for them in League One.

    And things get worse for Morecambe, who now trail 4-0 to Crewe after James Jones inflicts the latest blow.

    Grimsby's capitulation continues - Christian Doidge has another to make it 4-1 to Forest Green.

  4. goal

    GOAL: Birmingham 1-1 Norwichpublished at 16:43 British Summer Time 4 August 2018

    Onel Hernandez (83 mins)

    Norwich have an equaliser with seven minutes left! Onel Hernandez fires low into the corner with his left foot and the Canaries are on course for a point on the opening day.

    Ipswich 1-2 Blackburn

    Blackburn should've put this one to bed but Ipswich escape.

    A dangerous ball from Ryan Nyambe across the face of Ipswich's goal is helped on by Bradley Dack but both Joe Nuttall and Kasey Palmer fail to finish off the chance.

    Into the closing 10 minutes of our 15:00 BST kick-offs.

    Anyone fancy being a hero late on the opening day of the EFL season?

    Also, there's still Sheffield United v Swansea to come from 17:30 BST.

    Millwall 2-0 Middlesbrough

    Boro still threatening a way back in as they keep pushing Millwall.

    Martin Braithwaite's cross is met by Ryan Shotton but he heads just wide of Jordan Archer's goal.

    Boro push again but this time Aden Flint can't direct an effort on target as Ashley Fletcher squares it to him.

    Last 10 minutes approaching.

  8. Grabban on for Forestpublished at 16:36 British Summer Time 4 August 2018

    Bristol City 1-1 Nottingham Forest

    Lewis Grabban scored goals for fun in the Championship last season for Sunderland and then Aston Villa.

    That persuaded Nottingham Forest to spend £6m to sign Grabban from Bournemouth in the summer, and he's off the bench for his debut at Ashton Gate.

    Matty PhillipsImage source, PA

    Chances aplenty in this one but it's still 1-1.

    Craig Noone delivers a superb cross into the box for Bolton and Josh Magennis forces a great save from Sam Johnstone with a far post header.

    The follow up then sees Noone and Gary O'Neil go close before West Brom clear.

    Ipswich 1-2 Blackburn

    Danny Graham, scorer of Blackburn's first-half equaliser against Ipswich, heads off to be replaced by Joe Nuttall.

    Ipswich huffing and puffing but showing little end product in their search for a leveller. Last 20 minutes on the clock.

    West Brom 1-1 Bolton

    What a save from Ben Alnwick for Bolton to keep them level at The Hawthorns.

    Chris Brunt's corner is dangerous and Ahmed Hegazi's header bounces into the ground before being tipped over the bar by the Wanderers keeper.

    Millwall 2-0 Middlesbrough

    Britt Assombalonga again is a threat for Middlesbrough as he sees a goal-bound shot blocked by a crowd of Millwall players.

    Last 20 minutes approaching at The Den.

    Joey BartonImage source, Rex Features

    There's plenty of time left yet, but Joey Barton has to rally his Fleetwood side as they go behind at home to AFC Wimbledon.

    Joe Pigott bundled the visitors ahead on the half-hour mark, and Barton already has the first early test of his reign.

    Ipswich 1-2 Blackburn

    Past the hour mark at Portman Road and Paul Hurst has brought on Adetayo Edun in a bid to add more pace in midfield for Ipswich.

    Blackburn holding firm though and the hosts beginning to get a little frustrated as Tony Mowbray throws on Kasey Palmer for Dominic Samuel.

    West Brom cranking up the pressure now on Bolton and looking the more likely to score the next goal.

    Jay Rodriguez sees his header hooked clear by Jason Lowe.

  19. goal

    GOAL: Wigan 3-1 Sheffield Wednesdaypublished at 16:21 British Summer Time 4 August 2018

    Nick Powell (60 mins)

    Wigan have their third of the afternoon and Paul Cook looks set to finish with three points from his first game in the Championship.

    Nick Powell chips home the rebound from Michael Jacobs' initial shot, following some fancy footwork from Sam Morsy.

  20. RED CARDpublished at 16:20 British Summer Time 4 August 2018

    Bury 0-0 Yeovil

    We have the first red card of the season, as Yeovil full back Tom James is dismissed for a second bookable offence against Bury.

    He was due to join West Brom earlier this week, but ended up remaining at Yeovil after failing to agree personal terms with the Baggies.

    Instead, he has this dubious honour. Far better, no?
