That's it for our coverage of tonight's EFL action.

It proved to be a good evening for Brentford, whose promotion challenge is starting to gather momentum after a derby win over 10-man QPR.

And Ivan Toney has another goal to add to his tally, netting his 12th of the season.

Thanks for joining us.

A reminder that tonight's match has just been the amuse bouche for the weekend's Championship action.

There are 10 games tomorrow, starting with early-season pace-setters Reading entertaining third-placed Bristol City.

There are four games in League One and League Two, with most of the third and fourth tier clubs in action in the FA Cup second round.

Do join us for coverage of the EFL from tomorrow lunchtime.

Here's what tonight's result has done to the Championship table...

Brentford climb five places to fourth ahead of the rest of the weekend's action.

QPR remain 13th, six points off the play-offs.

Relegated pair Norwich and Bournemouth lead the way.

What a signing Ivan Toney has been for Brentford.

He had a goal ruled out for a marginal offside but then popped up to score the winner anyway.

That's 12 in 12 for the Bees since his move from Peterborough United.

His goals have been worth a whopping 12 points to the west Londoners so far this season.

Rangers boss Mark Warburton has a few words with referee Matt Donohue and his assistants after the final whistle.

Perhaps he still unhappy about the decision just to book Mads Bech Sorensen in the first half for his foul on Lyndon Dykes?

Bees counterpart Thomas Frank then has a slightly calmer conversation with the officials.

Ivan Toney heads away Ilias Chair's free-kick and the whistle goes.

Brentford are seven unbeaten after beating their local rivals for the fourth successive time.

Now Sergi Canos gets yellow for catching Rangers forward Lyndon Dykes late.

One last chance for Rangers with a free-kick 35 yards out.

A late chance for QPR to lump the ball forward as Ivan Toney fouls Rob Dickie on the right flank midway inside the Bees half.

But the hosts head away the ball into the box.

Rangers are feeding off scraps.

Brentford keeper David Raya comes off his line to punch away Albert Adomah's threatening cross from the right.

Macauley Bonne was lurking for the R's.

Mads Bech Sorensen fails to deal with a ball into the Bees box, but the ball is hacked away.

Bright Osayi-Samuel can't get past Sergi Canos and then Vitaly Janelt blocks a long-range effort from Yoann Barbet.

The Bees break and Saman Ghoddos blazes an effort high and wide after good hold-up play by Ivan Toney.

There will be five minutes of added time.

Hope for QPR...

The points are shared at Highbury Stadium after a couple of second-half goals.

Charlie Wyke headed Sunderland in front just before the hour mark before Callum Connolly bundled in an equaliser for Fleetwood.

The Black Cats maintain their unbeaten away start but they're dropping plenty of points. Fleetwood move up to sixth for the time being.

Brentford striker Ivan Toney goes for an audacious chip from 25 yards, but the ball goes over the bar.

That would have been a great goal, but QPR are still in it.

BIG chance for Brentford to kill things off as Marcus Forss is played in by Ivan Toney,

But Rob Dickie gets back to block Forss's stabbed effort at goal with a last-ditch challenge.

Brilliant defending.

Brentford's final change of the evening as Saman Ghoddos replaces Bryan Mbeumo.

Change for QPR as forward Macauley Bonne comes on for left-back Niko Hamalainen.

Trailing and a man down, Mark Warburton has decided to roll the dice.

The visitors only have two recognised defenders on the pitch now.

What is it about QPR and Fridays?

Fail to find an equaliser and it'll be 19 defeats from their past 20 games on this day of the week.

You'd expect a team of Brentford's quality to see the game out from here, especially with the extra man.

QPR's hopes of a comeback have taken a big hit now.

Todd Kane gets a second yellow card for a high boot on Marcus Forss.

It was late and he was nowhere near the ball, so can't argue too much about his dismissal.

Brentford clear another Rangers corner.

The visitors are seeing more of the ball at the moment as they look to find an equaliser.

Brentford are getting men back and making things difficult for the Hoops.

They're into the final five minutes at Highbury Stadium. Anyone going to net a winner?
