GOAL: Rotherham 3-0 Derbypublished at 20:49 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2021
Ryan Giles (88 mins)
Derby have been completely blown away in the final quarter of an hour.
This is the pick of the goals too, as Ryan Giles drives into the box and then arrows a low shot across goal and into the bottom corner.
A fine, fine evening for the Millers.

Michael Smith (81 mins)
Game over?!
What a five minutes this has been from the Millers, who double their lead through Michael Smith.
The big Rotherham centre-forward manages to convert Matt Crooks' near-post cross to give the hosts breathing space.

Rotherham 1-0 Derby
The Rams actually very nearly find a quick response through Patrick Roberts, but the goalscorer Michael Ihiekwe manages to get across to intervene.

Rotherham 1-0 Derby
If it stays like this, Rotherham will move up to 22nd in the Championship table and haul themselves to within two points of Derby.

Michael Ihiekwe (76 mins)
Deadlock broken at last!
It's not a vintage goal and the Derby defending leaves a fair bit to be desired, but it's a goal nonetheless.
A long ball is launched into the Rams box, Michael Smith manages to flick it on and Michael Ihiekwe arrives to poke in.
HALF-TIMEpublished at 20:35 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2021
Brentford 1-1 Bristol City
That's been a very watchable first half, largely because Bristol City - despite their poor away record - have turned up and made a really good game of it.
There's surely more to come from Brentford, though.
All square at the break.

Brentford 1-1 Bristol City
The Bees are just starting to assert a bit of control again, particularly down their right-hand side through Tariqe Fosu.
There's just so much pace and quality running through this Brentford side - you can see why Wycombe copped seven on Saturday.

Rotherham 0-0 Derby
In South Yorkshire, meanwhile, it remains goaless and it's been a second half of few chances.
Millers man Matthew Olosunde does work his way into a shooting position, however, but David Marshall holds onto his attempt.

Not much to report.
GOAL: Brentford 1-1 Bristol Citypublished at 20:15 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2021
Sergi Canos (27 mins)
This game has been wide open in the opening half an hour and I was by no means expecting Zak Vyner's third-minute goal to be the only one we saw this evening. Alas, it isn't.
After a mistake from Alfie Mawson, Tariqe Fosu forces Daniel Bentley into a smart save, but it's only parried straight to the feet of Sergi Canos, who does the rest.

Rotherham 0-0 Derby
Unlucky from Max Bird, who combines well with Colin Kazim-Richards and works a shooting opportunity, but Viktor Johansson blocks it away.
There's a long way to go, but you'd assume a point would be better news for Derby than Rotherham tonight.

Hands up if you were expecting this to be the first goal celebration picture you saw this evening?
Nope, me neither.

Brentford 0-1 Bristol City
And now Brentford come forward again, with Ivan Toney producing a terrific bit of hold-up play to tee up Sergi Canos, whose powerful drive is diverted behind by Daniel Bentley.
From the resulting corner, Ethan Pinnock's looping header drifts just wide.

Brentford 0-1 Bristol City
You know what, though, the visitors are giving this a really good go.
After Owura Edwards, making his full Bristol City debut tonight, shows good feet to win a corner, Han-Noah Massengo - another young Robins player - does a couple of stepovers and shoots straight at the goalkeeper.
Very lively start from both sides.
