Relegated from the Premier League last season, Norwich City are on the march seeking an immediate return.

The Canaries are very much on song, heading into this one on the back of three consecutive victories.

Daniel Farke's men have lost just once in 14 games to climb the table following a mixed start to the campaign.

Win tonight and the Norfolk side will go three points clear at the top of the table.

But hosts Reading are in the thick of the play-off picture and have won two of their past three.

Blackburn have started a mini slump in December, losing their past two league matches.

The last time Rovers tasted defeat three games on the bounce was back in July this year.

But tonight the formbook suggests an easy win for Tony Mowbray's team. They face a Rotherham side who have lost 42 of their last 56 away Championship matches.

And the Millers have lost their past six on the road in the league.

One-way traffic then, surely?

Half-time at the Riverside.

No key breakthroughs but it did get livelier towards the end of the first period.

The hosts just edging it but lacking quality in the final third.

And referee Michael Salisbury blows for half-time in South Wales.

Birmingham's Marc Roberts cancelled out Robert Glatzel's early opener in a tense first half.

Here we go then, game number four in the Championship tonight has just got going.

Blackburn have won 17 of their last 20 home matches against Rotherham in all competitions.

Easy home win, surely?

Corner cleared and then Anfernee Dijksteel breaks up a Luton counter with a cheeky foul.

No card.

Hang on. Chance at the Riverside.

Middlesbrough's Dael Fry heads a Paddy McNair free-kick across goal. The ball eventually rebounds back to the defender who hooks over from close range.

Apparently there was a deflection. We'll have a corner.

Five minutes to go. No updates to tell you about.

Sigh.

Under 10 minutes to go until the break in our two 19:00 GMT games.

Neither have been classics.

James Collins scored a hat-trick for Luton on Saturday. He nearly goes clear against Boro but Dael Fry does brilliantly to sprint back and tackle the forward.

Nervy times for the hosts.

Now a yellow for a Cardiff man. Leandro Bacuna gets a caution after a high challenge on Ivan Sanchez.

Moments later Blues' Maikel Kieftenbeld has a go from 35 yards.

Nowhere near the target.

And in our other game still playing, things have gone a little stale between Middlesbrough and Luton.

Duncan Watmore hasn't really had a sniff yet.

The former Sunderland forward scored twice in Boro's 3-0 win over Millwall on Saturday.

Not much has happened since Cardiff's early opener in South Wales.

Brimingham's Jon Toral has just gone into the book after a late challenge on Marlon Pack.

Was rather unnecessary. Pack was in his own half.

Full-time at Pride Park.

Derby make it six unbeaten after an accomplished performance.

First-half goals from Colin Kazim-Richards and Kamil Jozwiak hand the Rams their first home win of the season.

And it's a fourth straight clean sheet for Wayne Rooney's men as the Rams edge closer towards moving out of the bottom three.

Swansea suffer a first defeat in four and fail to close the gap to the top two.

Derby shut the door again, as a Connor Roberts cross is hacked away from inside the area.

Then Liam Cullen flashes a header well wide of goal.

A late change from Derby to break up the game. Kamil Jozwiak comes off, with Louie Sibley introduced.

Into five minutes of added time. The Rams have this one in the bag...

All Middlesbrough now at the Riverside.

Anfernee Dijksteel stings the palms of Luton keeper James Shea.

Marcus Tavernier is lurking to latch onto the rebound but the ball's hacked clear by a white shirt.

The Rams deal with a couple of crosses into their box.

The Derby backline have kept their concentration well throughout the game.

A fourth consecutive clean sheet is in touching distance.

Final roll of the dice for the Swans.

Liam Cullen replaces Korey Smith.

They need a goal, but have barely created any chances.

The work rate and application from the Derby players has been brilliant all evening.

Duane Holmes loses possession in attack and then races back to help crowd out Yan Dhanda on halfway.

The Rams are closing in on an elusive first home win of the campaign.
