    How it stands

    Here's what tonight's results have done to the top of the Championship.

    Karlan Grant's late winner extended West Brom's unbeaten start to the campaign and put the Baggies top of the table.

    That goal denied Coventry City from going to the summit of the second tier for the first time since August 2009.

    FT: West Brom 2-1 QPR

    That'll be a galling defeat for QPR, who led through Andre Gray's goal after 45 seconds.

    But Seny Dieng failed to hold on to Karlan Grant's strike and fumbled the ball into his own net with 15 minutes left.

    And Grant netted the winner for the Baggies with two minutes left.

    That's now three straight league defeats for the west Londoners.

    West Brom striker Jordan Hugill goes down clutching his foot.

    Into six minutes of added time, and QPR win a corner on the left.

    Rangers keeper Seny Dieng seeks permission to come up, but is waved back from inside the West Brom half.

    GOAL: West Brom 2-1 QPRpublished at 88 mins

    Karlan Grant

    There it is! West Brom have completed the turnaround.

    It's a slick move from the hosts as they break forward, and a couple of first-time passes set Karlan Grant free in the box.

    This time his left-footed shot goes across goal and into the bottom right-hand corner.

    The first goal might go down as an own goal for Seny Dieng, but there's no taking that one away from Grant.

    The Baggies are going top of the Championship now!

    Chances, chances, chances for the Baggies.

    Karlan Grant has an attempt deflected wide.

    From the resulting corner, the ball drops in the six-yard box but somehow Rangers clear.

    Then Darnell Furlong fires straight at Seny Dieng.

    Coventry City are in dreamland and are heading top of the Championship as things stand.

    The Sky Blues have made it five successive home wins at the start of the season.

    That's the first time they've achieved that in the top two tiers since 1973-74.

    Peterborough remain without a point from their five away games since their return to this level.

    It's also five defeats in six for Darren Ferguson's men.

    West Brom 1-1 QPR

    Enforced change for Rangers now, as influential midfielder Stefan Johansen has to come off through injury.

    Andre Dozzell comes on for the Norway international.

    Osman Kakay is also on for centre-back Jordy de Wijs, who can't continue either.

    It looks like QPR will have to weather the West Brom storm in the closing stages.
