    Coventry 1-0 Bristol City

    Coventry are so close to doubling their lead.

    Matt Godden cuts back onto his right foot in the box but his low shot is tipped onto the post by Dan Bentley.

    Swansea 0-0 Preston

    The best chance of the afternoon so far goes to Preston, as Emil Riis Jakobsen picks out his skipper Ryan Ledson who finds Brad Potts but he strikes narrowly over the bar.

    Reading 0-0 Derby

    Derby have come closest on the break and Colin Kazim-Richards goes close twice.

    First he met a Craig Forsyth cross which thumped the post and then when the ball was recycled, tiptoed his way past a couple of defenders but Rafael saved his second effort.

    Reading 0-0 Derby

    Reading continue to force the issue at the Madejski Stadium, but Derby's defence has been rock solid so far.

    Manchester United loanee Teden Mengi has been busy; he brushed aside one attack from Andy Rinomhota, and then eased off Yakou Meite. Powerhouse.

    A few more goals to speak of in the third tier...

    Joey Barton's Bristol Rovers are behind at home to Doncaster, veteran winger James Coppinger with the goal, while Blackpool now lead 2-1 against Gillingham thanks to two Jerry Yates goals.

    Elsewhere, Crewe and Accrington are ahead at MK Dons and Oxford respectively.

    Blackburn 0-0 Bournemouth

    A lacklustre opening 20 minutes at Ewood Park; the Cherries players were looking for a penalty after David Brooks went down but referee Darren Bond waved it away.

    Harvey Elliott also delivered a brilliant ball over the top for Blackburn striker Adam Armstrong, but the flag was up.

    Rotherham 0-1 Wycombe

    Unlucky for the Millers, who almost had the chance to equalise through captain Michael Ihiekwe, but his header off the back of Wes Harding's cross is wide.

    Nottm Forest 0-0 QPR

    Rangers clear off the line! Forest midfielder Ryan Yates got the touch but it's not enough to beat the visitors defence on this occasion.

    Combination of goalkeeper and defence to push it away.

  11. Swansea's change of shapepublished at 15:16 British Summer Time 5 April 2021

    Swansea 0-0 Preston

    Having lost their past three matches, Swansea have tried to change things up against Preston today.

    For the first time this season, they're not starting with their favoured 3-5-2 formation.

    Instead, head coach Steve Cooper has switched to a 4-3-3, with Morgan Whittaker brought into the attack alongside Jamal Lowe and Andre Ayew.

    Luton 0-0 Barnsley

    Barnsley are pushing for play-offs but mid-table Luton have had the best chance, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall with a snapped volley straight at the Tykes goalkeeper Brad Collins.

    Earlier the Leicester loanee took a whack in the face from the ball, which is one way of curbing a dangerous threat, but he seems to have overcome that.

    League Two latest

    Leaders Cambridge United have looked unflappable of late but they're behind at fourth-placed Tranmere.

    Midfielder Paul Lewis has scored against his former club, and that's the top two sides in League Two losing already!

    Reading 0-0 Derby

    Derby bare their teeth, or perhaps jut their horns being Rams, with Nathan Byrne's cross looking to get Colin Kazim-Richards in, but the burly striker is kept away from it by goalkeeper Rafael.

    Rotherham 0-1 Wycombe

    The visitors almost double their lead after skipper Joe Jacobson's free-kick lands at Uche Ikpeazu who heads it to Admiral Muskwe, but his effort is over the bar.

    Great stuff from Gareth Ainsworth's side in the opening stages.

    Swansea 0-0 Preston

    A quiet start so far at the Liberty Stadium.

    Swansea forward Jamal Lowe just tried to weave his way into the box from the left and attempted a cross but it was blocked by Liam Lindsay.

    League One & League Two latest

    We've had our first goals in the third and fourth tiers.

    A fifth goal in four games for Jerry Yates has Blackpool 1-0 up against League One play-off rivals Gillingham.

    In League Two, bottom side Grimsby have taken an eye-catching lead against second-placed Cheltenham, Lenell John-Lewis with the goal.

    Another BIG goal at the bottom of the Championship.

    A long throw is launched into the Bristol City box, the ball bobbles around and Leo Ostigard slots into the corner through a crowd of players.

    The Sky Blues are seven points clear of the drop zone as it stands... still plenty of twists and turns to come though, surely?

    Nottm Forest 0-0 QPR

    Ball steered wide by Lewis Grabban as Forest enjoy the first chance of the game.

    Tyler Blackett was the architect of the opportunity which fell Grabban's way. He remains on just three for the season, the Reds striker.

    Reading 0-0 Derby

    Reading midfielder Andy Rinomhota tries to set Yakou Meite away but his clipped through ball is cut out by the Rams defence.

    The Royals making the early running, and they need to with their promotion bid being threatened by the chasing pack.
