    Lee Tomlin (81 mins)

    Cardiff's playmaking maverick Lee Tomlin has come up with something. having come on against Reading.

    He could do nothing to stop Reading getting a second, but he's reduced the arrears here.

    Rafael Cabral palmed away Kieffer Moore's header and following up was Tomlin.

    Adam Armstrong (77 mins)

    Game over - if it wasn't already.

    Derby do their best to set up a tense finale at Pride Park and Lee Buchanan keeps pressing and wins a succession of corners for the hosts.

    But on the counter, an unmarked Adam Armstrong taps in from inside the box to surely wrap up the three points for Blackburn.

    Boro went close when Sam Morsy put in a lovely cross that Britt Assombalonga could only head tamely toward the goalkeeper Seny Dieng.

    At the other end, Tom Carroll rattles the post with a near post shot that beat Marcus Bettinelli and as the ball rolled toward the back post to be bundled in, Dael Fry stretched out to clear and smacked the other upright in the process.

    It's all going on.

    Stoke still pressing to put this game to bed and are making their man advantage count against Preston.

    Millwall 1-1 Brentford

    Some really nice play from Millwall.

    Cardiff 0-2 Reading

    That was a well-taken goal by Lucas Joao but again Cardiff will be disappointed with the manner in which they conceded, with Sheyi Ojo giving the ball away cheaply.

    Lucas Joao (66 mins)

    Cardiff have been growing a little in confidence but Reading come up with the perfect response.

    Josh Laurent teases his way into the box, rolls a pass to Lucas Joao on the edge of the six-yard area and he shows great strength to hold off Curtis Nelson and smash beyond Alex Smithies for goal two.

    Barnsley 0-0 Coventry

    Barnsley are looking better in this half and are just shading it, Alex Mowatt has had a curling effort go just wide but there's nothing much in it yet.

    Cardiff 0-1 Reading

    Cometh the hour, cometh the man. In Cardiff's case, the mercurial Lee Tomlin.

    He's been sent on to give the Bluebirds a bit of spark. Will Vaulks is withdrawn in turn.

    Change enforced for Reading, who bring off Felipe Araruna for Tom Holmes after a knee injury.

    Birmingham 0-0 Rotherham

    Two decent efforts from the two Ivans of Birmingham.

    First Ivan Sunjic has his shot from range well saved followed by another from outside of the box from Ivan Sanchez which is also saved by Rotherham keeper Jamal Blackman.

    QPR 1-1 Middlesbrough

    Marcus Tavernier sneaks in to get a shot on goal for Middlesbrough but Seny Dieng has an easy save after it's deflected his way by covering defenders.

    Meanwhile, Grant Hall - who had a tough time with injury at Rangers in his spell there - has come off injured for Boro, and Dael Fry is on. Disappointing end to his return to the Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium.
