Rovers momentarily think they've equalised through Danny Graham, but it won't count. The officials spotted a foul.

Meanwhile, there's more bad news for the hosts, as Charlie Mulgrew is forced off with an injury.

Fans are beginning to arrive at Ashton Gate for Bristol City's huge game with Leeds at the top of the Championship.

It's a sell out.

We'll have build-up from Bristol, and elsewhere in the EFL, from around 14:00 GMT.

Rovers keeper David Raya once again denies Preston's Paul Gallagher, as they enter the final 20 minutes in Lancashire.

After pressure from Blackburn earlier in this second half, it's now arguably Preston who look more likely to find this game's second goal.

It's absolutely teeming down with rain at Bramall Lane. Slippy conditions for both sides. Mistakes await.

North End boss Alex Neil has a 100% record against Blackburn in the Championship, winning all three second-tier games he has managed against them before today.

He's now 25 minutes away from making that four out of four, as time ticks by for the hosts.

We're back under way at Bramall Lane.

Terrific football from the visitors leads to a chance for Paul Gallagher, but his low strike is saved by David Raya.

Following Norwich's win last night that extended their lead at the top of the Championship, BBC Sport pundit Jermaine Jenas tells BBC One:

"Norwich are playing the type of football that allows you to survive in the Premier League.

"I can't see them letting their current lead at the top slip."

Rovers are cranking up the pressure, searching for that equaliser. Adam Armstrong's effort is cleared off the line, not long after consecutive corners.

Speaking ahead of thousands of Blackpool fans' long-awaited return to watch their side this afternoon, BBC Sport pundit Kevin Kilbane tells BBC One:

"How that club has been managed and how the owner has conducted himself has been nothing short of outrageous.

"Today has been a long time coming for Blackpool supporters."

Obviously it's not far to travel... But nevertheless, that's quite some away following for Preston!

Meanwhile, Preston get this Lancashire derby back under way. Can they retain their lead or will Rovers fight back?

Not the greatest of first halves, but a couple of big moments nonetheless.

Jack O'Connell put the Blades ahead on five minutes with a clever finish, before Rotherham were reduced to 10 men on 28 minutes when Will Vaulks went in heavy on George Baldock.

It looks odds on that Sheffield United will close the gap to leaders Norwich to four points.

Chances at both ends!

Jon Taylor's cross is just out of the reach of Michael Smith at the near post.

Sheffield United then go up the other end, but Oliver Norwood's effort is palmed away by Marek Rodak.

That's going to be the problem for the Millers now they're down to 10 men.

Jon Taylor sends a cross into the home penalty area but there's not a Rotherham player in sight and it's cleared.

There will be three minutes of added time at the end of the first half.

It's wave after wave of Sheffield United attacks.

David McGoldrick looks to burst through the Rotherham backline, but it's a fine challenge from Michael Ihiekwe to deny the striker.

Can the visitors hold on for another five minutes or so until half-time?

Sheffield United are trying to take advantage of being a man up in the latter stages of this first half.

John Fleck tries his luck from 20 yards, but it's well saved by Marek Rodak.

12 minutes to go until the break.

At the break, Preston have the lead in this Lancashire derby and are on course to extend their unbeaten run to 10 matches.

Oh dear, Will Vaulks is shown a straight red card after just 28 minutes.

The Millers midfielder goes in hard, and late on George Baldock and Geoff Eltringham sends him on his way.

A tough afternoon just got even tougher.
