    All square!

    It's another penalty award that you could class as debatable, as Mads Roerslev went down under a challenge in the box.

    Said Benrahma coolly puts the penalty away and it's 2-2.

    Brentford 1-2 Blackburn

    The Ollie Watkins goal will be well worth a watch later.

    That's 21 goals for the season now for him. I'm sure he'll be playing in the Premier League at some stage soon, regardless of whether Brentford get there or not.

    Brentford 1-2 Blackburn

    Ethan Pinnock, who scored Brentford's equaliser at Birmingham last weekend, almost repeats the feat here but his effort from a Bees corner is wayward and flies wide.

    Brentford 1-2 Blackburn

    Referee Tim Robinson endears himself to the home faithful further by stopping the game while the Bees were attacking in the box... because the corner flag had come out.

    When play resumes, Said Benrahma clears the stand with a shot from 12 yards out.

    Brentford have got their tails up, though. They're right in this match.

    Sam Gallagher is on for John Buckley for Blackburn.

    What. A. Goal!

    Ollie Watkins scores an absolute screamer to get Brentford back into this one.

    He takes a forward ball down on his chest and leathers it into the top corner from 20 yards.

    A stunner.

  6. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 59 mins

    Brentford 0-2 Blackburn

    Brentford need to regroup quickly here, after feeling aggrieved at that earlier penalty award.

    They've made another change - Shandon Baptiste, who joined from Oxford in January, is on for Emiliano Marcondes.

  7. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 54 mins

    Brentford 0-2 Blackburn

    Brentford make a change immediately - Mads Roerslev is on for Julian Jeanvier.

    Controversy.

    David Raya makes a great save from Adam Armstrong but then the referee adjudges that he's pulled down John Buckley in the aftermath. Brentford aren't happy but Tim Robinson points to the spot and Armstrong slots in the spot-kick to give Blackburn a 2-0 lead.

    Brentford 0-1 Blackburn

    It's been a great away performance from Blackburn so far.

    A reminder that Rovers will move into sixth position if they win at Brentford today, and also within two points of the Bees.

    Preston and Bristol City, who both play later, will be just outside the play-off spots.

    Brentford, with the wind at their backs in the second half, earn a free-kick on the right corner of Blackburn's box.

    It comes to very little.

    A man has appeared with a cable tie to sort things out and now we're back under way at Griffin Park.

    HT: Brentford 0-1 Blackburn

    We've got a delay to the start of the second half - looks like there's a hole in one of the nets which needs repairing.

    Accrington v Rotherham (15:00 GMT)

    A nice touch from a group of Rotherham fans - en route to today's fixture at Accrington, they've stopped off in Bury to support some of those affected by the Shakers' expulsion from the EFL earlier this season.

    We've played the two minutes of added time at the end of the first half, and that's that.

    Adam Armstrong's goal has put Rovers on top at the break at Griffin Park.

    Blackburn get a free-kick just outside the box. Stewart Downing territory?

    It's Adam Armstrong territory... but it's comfortably saved by David Raya.

    Four minutes to go until the break and Blackburn still lead with that early goal from Adam Armstrong.

    Brentford boss Thomas Frank is furiously making notes on the touchline.

    Awesome block by Ryan Nyambe at the end of another Brentford attack which had a bit of everything.

    Said Benrahma missed his kick when trying to shoot, but got another opportunity and Nyambe was quick to fling himself in the way.

    Pinball in the Blackburn box and Christian Walton eventually has to make an excellent stop from Said Benrahma's deflected shot.

    The Bees are pressing for an equaliser.
