    GOAL West Brom 0-2 Bristol Citypublished at 20:45 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Nahki Wells (45 mins)

    A big moment for Bristol City as they take a giant lead towards three points.

    Antoine Semenyo cuts in from the left and sends over a devilish ball which Nahki Wells glances past Alex Palmer.

    Razor sharp from Wells, but the Baggies defence was half asleep.

    West Brom 0-1 Bristol City

    A chance for West Brom to get back on level terms.

    Conor Townsend gets to the byline and his cross evades two Robins defenders and reaches Matt Phillips near the penalty spot.

    But he fails to work Max O'Leary as he sends it into the away fans at the Smethwick End.

  6. Postpublished at 20:42 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Blackburn 1-0 Sunderland

    Sunderland are having to play without a recognised striker at the moment because of injuries.

    Forward Jack Clarke sees a header saved by Thomas Kaminski in the home goal.

  7. Fan arrested in Cumbrian derbypublished at 20:42 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Barrow 0-0 Carlisle

    There are a host of fixtures in the EFL Trophy tonight including a derby game between Barrow and Carlisle.

    However, the first half was held up for almost 20 minutes after a firework was thrown into the Carlisle penalty area from the home section.

    Cumbria Police have just confirmed that a man has been arrested in relation to the incident.

  8. HALF-TIMEpublished at 20:40 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Swansea 1-2 Reading

    Reading's smash-and-grab is working a treat at the moment thanks to those goals from Yakou Meite and Tom Ince.

  9. Postpublished at 20:38 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Swansea 1-2 Reading

    Into eight minutes of extra time in South Wales after that earlier floodlight failure.

    Can Swansea force their way onto level terms before they head into the dressing room?

  10. HALF-TIMEpublished at 20:36 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Norwich 0-0 Luton

    Norwich heading for a fourth straight game without a win as things stand.

  11. HALF-TIMEpublished at 20:34 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Huddersfield 0-0 Preston

    Not too much in the first 45 minutes of this one.

    GOAL: West Brom 0-1 Bristol Citypublished at 20:33 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Joe Williams (32 mins)

    You can always rely on Bristol City for goals!

    Nahki Wells sends over a cross that comes down with snow on it at the back post, but Jay Dasilva is alive to it and puts it back in the middle where Joe Williams manages to poke home from six yards.

    Not the prettiest finish for his first Bristol City goal, but Robins boss Nigel Pearson won't care two hoots.

    GOAL: Blackburn 1-0 Sunderlandpublished at 20:33 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Ben Brereton Diaz (32 mins)

    Rovers going top as it stands!

    Chile international Ben Brereton Diaz shows his international class to whip home a brilliant finish into the top corner with his left foot from 18 yards out.

    That was the first shot on target all game.

  14. Postpublished at 20:32 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Huddersfield 0-0 Preston

    The away side ending the half on top.

    Alvaro Fernandez forces a decent save from Lee Nicholls in the home goal at his near post.

  15. Postpublished at 20:30 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Norwich 0-0 Luton

    Big chance for Teemu Pukki just before the break.

    He is played through the middle, he gets into the box and cuts inside a defender but the Finn can't keep his shot down and it whistles just over.

    Pukki can't find his sixth goal of the season.

  16. Postpublished at 20:29 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Huddersfield 0-0 Preston

    Preston have struggled for goals all season so they'll take them however they might come.

    Alvaro Fernandez sends a free-kick in towards the back post that just drifts past everyone and the post.

    That's as close as they've come.

  17. goal

    GOAL: Swansea 1-2 Readingpublished at 20:27 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Harry Darling (41 mins)

    Swansea are back in it!

    Matt Grimes sends in an out-swinging corner and Harry Darling gets to the ball first at the near post and sends a header into the net at the back post.

    Why did Reading not have a man on the back stick?

  18. Postpublished at 20:21 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Stoke 0-1 Rotherham

    Good chance for the home side to draw level.

    Dwight Gayle plays Tyrese Campbell in on goal but Millers keeper Viktor Johansson does well to deny him.

  19. goal

    GOAL: Swansea 0-2 Readingpublished at 20:18 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Tom Ince (33 mins)

    Sloppy play at the back by Swansea and they are heavily punished.

    Yakou Meite hassles Harry Darling and then squares for Tom Ince who produces a lovely little dink over Steven Benda to make it two.

  20. Postpublished at 20:17 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Norwich 0-0 Luton

    Norwich top scorer Josh Sargent tries his luck from just outside the area, and Ethan Horvath tips over to prevent what would have been a ninth of the season for the USA international.
