    Birmingham 0-0 Preston

    Is there a late goal in this one?

    Well if there is, Preston have staked their claim as Josh Murphy gets a chance in the box but he's intercepted before he can fire home.

    Birmingham defending well right now.

    Bournemouth 2-1 Luton

    If it remains as it is, Bournemouth will go two points clear at the top of the Championship but it's not a foregone conclusion.

    The home side were excellent first-half but Luton have responded in the second.

    Blackpool 1-0 Barnsley

    Blackpool keeper Chris Maxwell is keeping the hosts in it as it stands, as Barnsley mount a late charge.

    GOAL: Bristol City 1-1 Fulhampublished at 16:39 British Summer Time 25 September 2021

    Kasey Palmer (79 mins)

    Nigel Pearson's no Ostrich, when his side are struggling for a breakthrough, he won't bury his head in the sand.

    Instead, he'll send on Kasey Palmer, and the forward will get to a rebound after Chris Martin's shot was saved, burying it to bring the scores level.

    Fulham move down to fourth again with that goal.

    Blackburn 4-1 Cardiff

    Blackburn are living dangerously at the minute and will be happy they still hold a three-goal cushion over Cardiff.

    The Bluebirds have another chance on goal, this time as Aden Flint and Joel Bagan both fire off target.

    Stoke 2-0 Hull

    Goalscorer Nick Powell is involved from a dead ball again. This time he sweeps a ball into the danger area and defender James Chester is a whisker away from making contact.

    Tigers boss Grant McCann has made three substitutions as he tries to manufacture a way of getting a goal back but there's currently no sign of that happening.

    Bristol City 0-1 Fulham

    Nathan Baker close for Bristol City!

    Jay Dasilva puts it in the mix and big centre-half Baker attacks, but it soars over.

    Fulham are going into the top two as it stands right now... barring changes.

    Blackpool 1-0 Barnsley

    Can Barnsley find a leveller against Blackpool or are they headed for another defeat?

    Josh Benson leads the line and gets them into a promising position before Clarke Oduor puts his shot wide of the mark.

    Big intervention by Nathan Baker halts Harry Wilson in his quest for a Fulham second.

    Wilson is playing with the free-spirited menace that made him a Championship favourite at Derby, Bournemouth and a lesser extent Cardiff.

    Blackburn 4-1 Cardiff

    Cardiff aren't sitting back just yet and they've just come close to finding a second as they try to break down Blackburn's lead.

    Mark Harris sees his header tipped over the crossbar from Rovers keeper Thomas Kaminski.

    Sheff Utd 0-0 Derby

    Morgan Gibbs-White is making a nuisance of himself as Sheffield United look to make their player advantage count against Derby.

    He slices wide of the mark after the Rams fail to deal with a corner to the hosts.

  14. League Two updatepublished at 16:28 British Summer Time 25 September 2021

    An hour on the clock and the top three at the start of play – Forest Green, Leyton Orient and Harrogate – are all involved in goalless games.

    Hartlepool v Exeter and Salford v Northampton are both locked at 1-1, with Crawley, Port Vale and Walsall leading in their games.

    Sutton are the only side to have scored twice and still lead Carlisle.

    Swansea still lead thanks to Joel Piroe's first-half goal, but Huddersfield have turned this into much more of a contest in the second period.

    Danel Sinani and Harry Toffolo have both had efforts for the visitors, who are enjoying territory and possession having spent the first 45 minutes defending.

    Swansea have plenty of work to do yet if their first home league win of the season is to come this afternoon.

    Reece Burke (64 mins)

    Reece Burke does enough to guide a Luke Berry cross home, possibly via a last touch from the Cherries defence, to pull a goal back.

    Fair play to the Hatters, they have not been quelled at all and the game goes back into the balance now.

  17. League One updatepublished at 16:23 British Summer Time 25 September 2021

    Wigan look set to stay top of the third tier this evening with Charlie Wyke’s goal early in the second half doubling their advantage over Cheltenham.

    Swansea 1-0 Huddersfield

    While it's only 1-0, Swansea's confidence remains slightly brittle and visitors Huddersfield keep fashioning a few chances.

    Harry Toffolo's delicate connection with the head just zips over the top.

    Sheff Utd 0-0 Derby

    From the free-kick that follows Kelle Roos' sending off, Sheffield United can't quite capitalise.

    Morgan Gibbs-White, in such fine form for the Blades of late, fires his free-kick into the Derby wall.

    Matt Smith trying to sniff a second, and he's just hit the bar for Millwall.
