    Barnsley 0-0 Millwall

    Excellent challenge from Millwall's Jake Cooper as Conor Chaplin shaped up to shoot inside the six-yard box.

    Could we get a goal late on? Last 10 at Oakwell.

    Stoke v Middlesbrough (15:00 BST)

    We've had the first managerial change since the Championship restarted this week after Middlesbrough replaced Jonathan Woodgate with Neil Warnock.

    Warnock now has eight matches to try to keep Boro in the second tier, with the Teesside club level on points with 22nd-placed Hull City.

    Warnock has not been beaten in his first game in charge of a club since losing 2-1 to Bradford City as manager of Oldham Athletic in February 1997.

    After almost 1,500 matches as a manager, can Warnock save Boro from relegation to League One?

    Mix up in the Millwall defence and Barnsley forward Jacob Brown gets a shot off but Lions keeper Bartosz Bialkowski denies him.

    It has been a dreadful 2020 on the pitch for Hull City.

    The Tigers, who sold top scorer Jarrod Bowen to West Ham in January, are without a win since New Year's Day and slipped into the relegation zone last week after losing to fellow strugglers Charlton.

    Despite picking up just two points in their past 12 games, vice-chairman Ehab Allam says he has no intention to sack boss Grant McCann.

    "I've never been tempted to sack him. I think he's the man for us," Allam told BBC Radio Humberside.

    "I still think we have it in us to survive. The first game after a long break is always going to be difficult."

    He added: "I believe Grant will be here next season even if we went down."

    Derby 2-1 Reading

    Derby make a couple of changes as Louie Sibley and Martyn Waghorn make way.

    Sam Baldock has also come on for George Puscas for Reading as they keep pushing for an equaliser. Just under 20 minutes to play.

    Swansea 0-1 Luton

    Huge win for the Hatters as James Collins' goal was enough to bag all three points and move Luton closer to safety.

    That's four points in his first two games back for returning Luton boss Nathan Jones as they pick up a vital win against a 10-man Swansea, who had Jordan Garrick sent off for violent conduct late on.

    This is the second time Jones has beaten Swansea at the Liberty Stadium. His Stoke side won 2-1 there back in October.

    Swansea had won their previous three league games against Luton, but that run came to an end today.

    Preston 1-3 Cardiff

    That Josh Harrop miss is just about the final action of this game.

    Cardiff waltz their way to victory and despite Daniel Johnson's leveller, the Bluebirds looked assured in their second half performance as they nab sixth place from their opponents.

    A huge three points and victory in the race for the play-offs.

    Preston 1-3 Cardiff

    How's he missed that?!

    The rain has continued to beat down on the Deepdale pitch and, as Cardiff's Dion Sanderson slips in the soggy turf right in front of goal, Josh Harrop stands over the ball and surely he cannot miss the target from about six yards out!

    But he does and he sends his shot over the bar. It's just not happening for Preston today.

    Charlton 1-0 QPR

    Another huge win for Charlton as they pick up a vital three points to move further away from the bottom three.

    Darren Pratley's first-half header the difference in this London derby.

    Charlton 1-0 QPR

    Fourth official's board goes up on the touchline and there are five minutes of injury time now being played at The Valley.

    Nervous, Charlton fans?

    Barnsley 0-0 Millwall

    Good chance for the home side as Cauley Woodrow dinks the ball into the box nicely for Michael Sollbauer but it's straight at Millwall keeper Bartosz Bialkowski.

    GOAL: Preston 1-3 Cardiffpublished at 14:25 British Summer Time 27 June 2020

    Robert Glatzel (90 mins)

    Game over for Preston. Cardiff are headed for sixth!

    A quickfire break upfield and Robert Glatzel is given time in the box to bury a shot home from close range.

    The torrential rain is pretty symbolic of how Preston's defence have performed in this second half, to be honest!

    Preston 1-2 Cardiff

    Is that Preston's final throw of the dice in this game?

    As the rain beats down at Deepdale, Preston hammer downfield and try to force a late equaliser.

    David Nugent picks up a loose ball in the Cardiff box and tries to curl home on his right foot but it sails wide of the mark.

    Nine minutes of stoppage time for Swansea to get something out of this game.

    Well, this is going to go down as a Ben Hamer mistake that has given Reading a way back into this game...

    He tried to punch clear a corner when seemingly under no pressure but it only went as far as the head of Andy Rinomhota on the edge of the penalty area.

    He nods it back towards goal and two defenders on the line can't stop it. Suddenly this is in the balance again.

    Derby 2-0 Reading

    Louie Sibley fancied getting in on the goalscoring act for Derby again after his hat-trick against Millwall last week.

    He's on the end of another nice move by the Rams, but his shot on goal is tame and Rafael can easily scoop that up into his arms in Reading's goal.

    Charlton 1-0 QPR

    Closing stages approaching in this one and Charlton hoping they can hold on for another big three points.

    Swansea 0-1 Luton

    Blimey, tackles fly in from both sides followed by a melee where Swansea sub Jordan Garrick aims a punch at Luton goalscorer James Collins and it is a straight red for violent conduct.

    All to do now for the Swans.

    Nathaniel Mendez-Laing (82 mins)

    That is stunning from Cardiff! A flowing move of passes down the right wing sees Nathaniel Mendez-Laing rush through unmarked into the Preston box.

    The former Wolves man finishes as easy as you like past Preston keeper Declan Rudd and Cardiff are back on top and back in sixth!
