    Bournemouth 2-0 Nottingham Forest

    A brace for Junior Stanislas is enough for Bournemouth to seal the win and remain a point behind league leaders Norwich.

    That's three wins on the bounce for the Cherries while it's back-to-back defeats for Forest.

    It's looking like Bournemouth's three points unless Forest can pull something out of the bag as the game enters the final five minutes.

    As it stands the Cherries will remain one point behind Championship leaders Norwich.

    Ivan Toney's goal is enough to make it six unbeaten for Brentford at Oakwell.

    Barnsley have lost just two of their past six now themselves, but were unable to really get at the Bees in this loss.

    Preston 0-3 Blackburn

    It's all over at Deepdale and a night to forget for Preston comes to an end.

    The hosts have been out of this game ever since Joe Rafferty's sending off on the verge of half-time but Blackburn have been excellent value for their victory.

    Goals from Adam Armstrong, Ben Brereton and Tyrhys Dolan earn Rovers the points.

    Barnsley 0-1 Brentford

    Marcus Forss could have wrapped things up after being put through by Sergi Canos, but Brentford were unable to get the second. Fired at Jack Walton.

    Mathias Jensen was also up there in support... two would have killed it off. Sharp break though.

    They're into three minutes added time at Oakwell.

    Preston 0-3 Blackburn

    Four minutes added on at Deepdale and Blackburn have looked comfortable pretty much since kick-off.

    Four minutes for 10-man Preston to get a consolation.

    Barnsley 0-1 Brentford

    Barnsley want a penalty, alleging handball from Vitaly Janelt, but Darren Bond is having none of it.

    Victor Adeboyejo skipped by Bees former Tykes defender Ethan Pinnock and fired a cross... did it touch?? Referee's decision is final.

    Antony Short: David Brooks fabulous player, looks a level above tonight.

    Big things are certainly expected of the Wales international.

    Bournemouth 2-0 Nottingham Forest

    More pressure from Forest.

    First Sammy Ameobi has a strike from distance but Asmir Begovic does well to tip it over the bar.

    Shortly after, Anthony Knockaert puts in a cross for Ryan Yates but he heads it over the bar, he really should score but he's just unable to get over the top of the ball.

    Forest are not giving up yet.

    Preston 0-3 Blackburn

    There's a lull in play as both sides make a succession of substitutions as this game begins to play out.

    Preston fans, you might as well stick I'm a Celebrity on. It's certainly a night to forget.

    Barnsley 0-1 Brentford

    Barnsley haven't been able to strike a blow at the Brentford defence and the visitors look comfortable. In fact, it could have got worse for them a moment ago.

    Bees top scorer Ivan Toney got a toe to a loose ball in the box but Jack Walton was right up in his face to make an immediate block and keep the home side in it. Just.

    Bournemouth 2-0 Nottingham Forest

    Forest are trying to find a way to get back into this one.

    Sammy Ameobi has a crack on goal but it's deflected just wide of the post.

    GOAL: Preston 0-3 Blackburnpublished at 21:23 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2020

    Tyrhys Dolan (76 mins)

    Blackburn are coasting now and they add a third goal at a canter.

    Ben Brereton, who got Blackburn's second, tees up Tyrhys Dolan with a neat ball across the face of goal to tap in from close range.

    The former Preston man celebrates with some pretty wild acrobatics. I think he enjoyed that one.

    Barnsley 0-1 Brentford

    Valerien Ismael throwing a triple-sub into the mix for Barnsley, with Victor Adeboyejo, Herbie Kane and Clarke Oduor coming on.

    Time running out for them though, and the last few chances have all been for the visitors.

    Preston 0-2 Blackburn

    Preston are yet to have a shot on target and we're up to the hour mark, would you believe it?

    It's not gone their way this evening and Blackburn look, as you would expect against a side with 10 men, very comfortable.

  19. Postpublished at 21:18 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2020

    Barnsley 0-1 Brentford

    The goal has certainly buoyed Brentford and they were close to a second there.

    Emiliano Marcondes fashioned the chance for Bryan Mbeumo, but the Frenchman swipes wildly wide.

    Disappointing. Tykes have won four of the past five but it's going against them here.

  20. Postpublished at 21:13 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2020

    Preston 0-2 Blackburn

    Blackburn are pressing for another goal as they look to capitalise on their player advantage against Preston.

    Ben Brereton looks to add to his earlier goal as he's played through by Harvey Elliott but his attempt is blocked.
