    BBC Radio Nottingham’s Robin Chipperfield is covering his last game for the station today. He’s been reporting on the Reds for 20 years and has followed them up hill and down dale.

    Will he be saying goodbye after a win or can QPR spoil his day?

    Forest dominated the first half and had a goal controversially disallowed, but the visitors showed some signs of improvement in the latter stages.

    Birmingham 2-2 Sheffield Wednesday

    Birmingham spurn two chances to take the lead for a third time.

    First an unmarked Ivan Sunjic sends a shot wide from the edge of the box, and then Kristian Pedersen heads wide of the post when it looked easier to score.

    Leeds United 0-0 Reading

    Fantastic block by Reading's Liam Moore to deflect Helder Costa's 43rd-minute shot over the bar.

    Nottingham Forest 0-0 QPR

    Forest come close to an opener in unusual circumstances - a Tiago Silva corner bounces off the bar and away to safety.

    GOAL Preston North End 0-1 Hull Citypublished at 15:42 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February 2020

    Mallik Wilks (40 mins)

    It's no more than Hull deserve - they have had the best of the chances so far and Maillik Wilks glances a header into the net from Callum Elder's whipped ball in after a short corner.

    The Tigers have not won in eight - can they change that this afterenoon?

    Kalvin PhillipsImage source, Rex Features

    Kalvin Phillips cannot carry on after his knock and Ezgjan Alioski comes on for him after 37 minutes. That's a big blow for Leeds to see their star midfield man limp off.

    Nottingham Forest 0-0 QPR

    Owen Phillips
    BBC Sport at the City Ground

    Have QPR settled? They have been second best by quite some way so far, but flashes of quality from Ebere Eze are a warning to the hosts.

    The Rangers playmaker was involved in just about their only decent move so far, with a nice turn and pass to Marc Pugh, whose dangerous low cross was just about cut out.

  17. Swans get their rewardspublished at 15:39 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February 2020

    Swansea 1-0 Huddersfield

    Gareth Vincent
    BBC Sport Wales at the Liberty Stadium

    Neither side came into this game in form, but it was Swansea who made the more positive start and they have deservedly taken the lead.

    Huddersfield, the Championship's third lowest scorers at the start of the day, must now show a bit more attacking ambition as they search for a response.

    For Swansea, the goal has lightened the mood at the Liberty Stadium after their dispiriting five-game winless run.

    It's all West Brom at Ashton Gate.

    Robins keeper Daniel Bentley can't hold on to Jake Livermore's shot from the edge of the area, and Hal Robson-Kanu is on hand to pick up the pieces and slot home to make it 2-0 to the Championship leaders.

    Slaven Bilic's side are in firm control now.

  19. goal

    GOAL: Charlton 1-1 Lutonpublished at 15:38 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February 2020

    Harry Cornick (36 mins)

    But Charlton switch off at the back, fail to clear their lines and Luton equalise through Harry Cornick.

    An instant response from the Hatters, who are chasing a third straight win as they battle to avoid the drop.

    Leeds United 0-0 Reading

    Injury worries for Leeds - Helder Costa and Kalvin Phillips are both limping - Marcelo Bielsa will not want to lose either of those two.
