    Blackpool 0-0 West Brom

    Ooooft. That wasn't far away!

    Filip Krovinovic takes aim from about 25 yards out and watches as his powerful strike eventually rises over Chris Maxwell's crossbar.

    Blackpool are beginning to show signs of frustration, as Danny Ballard receives a booking for a tackle on Matheus Pereira.

  2. CLOSE!published at 15:39 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2021

    Blackburn 0-0 Doncaster

    That cross was so close to landing the jackpot.

    Tom Trybull whips in a wicked low delivery from the left, but neither of his Blackburn team-mates - Ben Brereton or Darragh Lenihan - can quite get a toe on the ball as it whizzes across the face of goal.

    Fulham 0-0 QPR

    Geoff Cameron bundles over Ruben Loftus-Cheek as the Fulham midfielder threatened to charge through on goal. Yellow card for Cameron and a free-kick for the visitors. QPR don't deal with the set piece at all well and only just survive as Joe Bryan's shot is deflected wide.

  4. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 15:38 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2021

    Bristol Rovers 1-1 Sheffield United

    The Blades think they are ahead again thanks to Mousset's low finish but the ref rules it out because John Egan was leaning on his marker to win the header that set up his team-mate.

    The visitors aren't happy but it's a fair call.

  5. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 15:37 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2021

    Burnley 0-1 MK Dons

    James Tarkowski!

    The Burnley defender is almost sat on the goalline as the ball bobbles around the MK Dons six-yard box, but can only stab his effort against the upright.

    The hosts denied an immediate reply.

    Bristol Rovers' Jonah Ayunga wants the ball a bit more direct but he's starting to get a few more touches, get more into the game. It's going to be tough for him up there.

    Wycombe 3-0 Preston

    Another nervy moment for Preston.

    Joe Jacobson whips in a corner and it's saved on the line by Connor Ripley. The Wycombe players appeal for a goal, convinced the ball traveled over the line, but replays show the referee was right to ignore those calls.

    GOAL - Stoke 0-1 Leicesterpublished at 15:35 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2021

    James Justin (34 mins)

    What a goal that is!

    James Justin, the Foxes left-back, picks the ball up on the side of the penalty box, cuts past two defenders on to his right foot and whips a wonderful effort into the top corner from the edge of the area to put the Premier League side in front.

    Some finish from the youngster, he's absolutely beaming.

  10. GREAT SAVE!published at 15:35 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2021

    Stevenage 0-1 Swansea

    Freddy Woodman pulls off a brave save to push the ball away at Tom Pett's feet and deny Stevenage the chance to get an equaliser.

    Blackpool 0-0 West Brom

    It took West Brom's changed team some time to get going at Bloomfield Road, but Sam Allardyce's side are on top of things now as Matheus Pereira misses the target from distance.

    The Baggies are lining up on the edge of the penalty area, however there's no way through the Tangerine defence for now.

  12. CLOSE!published at 15:33 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2021

    QPR 0-0 Fulham

    Superb block by Yoann Barbet!

    Aleksandar Mitrovic is sent througyh by Josh Onomah and looks certain to put Fulham ahead but Barbet pops up from nowhere and sticks out a boot to block Mitrovic's shot.

  13. Postpublished at 15:32 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2021

    Exeter 0-1 Sheffield Wednesday

    The hosts almost find a response immediately as Lewis Page's delivery from the left drops beneath the crossbar, but Joe Wildsmith does well to palm it away.

    GOAL - Burnley 0-1 MK Donspublished at 15:31 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2021

    Cameron Jerome

    It has come against the run of play, but MK Dons are not complaining.

    It is a great delivery from the left, a cute flick on from Scott Fraser and Cameron Jerome, all 34 years of him, is on hand to nod home.

    Blackburn 0-0 Doncaster

    Bradley Dack fancies the look of this free-kick 25 yards out.

    Blackburn's main man gives it the full stutter run-up and knuckleball strike. It is well hit, but his shot swerves narrowly off target.

  16. Postpublished at 15:30 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2021

    QPR 0-0 Fulham

    Fulham are getting into gear now and a well-worked move should be rewarded with a goal but Josh Onomah sidefoots his effort wide of the post.

    Former Leeds midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Sheffield United will be disappointed to give away a goal from a set-piece. One of Newcastle United's scouts is sat behind us. Be interesting what he made of that with the two sides facing each other on Tuesday. Teams will definitely be looking for weakness in the Sheffield United defence.

    Bournemouth 0-0 Oldham

    It remains 0-0 between Oldham and Bournemouth in what is a pretty even contest. The Latics want a penalty as Dylan Bahamboula goes down in the box while attempting a swivel and a shot but the referee doesn't want to know.

  19. goal

    GOAL - Exeter 0-1 Sheffield Wednesdaypublished at 15:28 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2021

    Adam Reach (27 mins)

    Great finish!

    Barry Bannan takes a quick free-kick for Sheffield Wednesday and the Exeter defence just completely switches off.

    It drops into the path of Adam Reach, who does superbly to take it on the bounce and fire beyond Lewis Ward from a tight angle with his left foot.

    Burnley 0-0 MK Dons

    Burnley are building up a head of steam here.

    It needs all of Richard Keogh's experience to get across and get a block in as Chris Wood twists into space and unleashes a shot from 18 yards.

    A hint of a hand in the veteran's block?

    The referee consults VAR and is told there is nothing more to see. Corner ball.
