    Preston 0-0 Middlesbrough

    Preston are starting to grow into this game now as Alan Browne plays in Paul Gallagher. But Gallagher's effort skids off target.

    Remember, if results fall their way, Preston could return to the top six with a win.

    It might be a new decade but has Charlie Adam stopped shooting from the halfway line? Nope.

    The Reading midfielder famously did bag from VERY long range against Chelsea for Stoke a few years ago but no repeat today.

    Huddersfield 0-1 Stoke

    Stoke sniffing a second here.

    Preston 0-0 Middlesbrough

    Middlesbrough forward Ashley Fletcher has had a number of chances early on at Deepdale.

    First an acrobatic effort is well saved by Preston keeper Declan Rudd before Fletcher turns provider and sets up Marcus Tavernier who can only drag his shot wide.

    Their first attack!

    The is will be music to the ears of Leeds and West Brom fans.

    John Swift gives the visitors the lead with a shot that goes in at the near post.

    If Fulham are going to close the gap on the top two to six points they'll need to come back from behind.

    Bristol City 0-1 Brentford

    A difficult day for Bristol City has just got a whole lot worse.

    Brentford's Ollie Watkins beats Ashley Williams to the ball and the Wales international is the last man as he brings the forward down.

    Straight red and there's no complaints from the home fans.

    Oh dear, a mix-up in the Birmingham backline sets up Joe Williams, who steadies himself before crossing to Josh Windass who bundles the ball into an empty net.

    Blues fans won't want to see that one again.
