    Stoke 0-1 Rotherham

    Rotherham haven't won away from home so far this season but they're in the mood this evening.

    Ollie Rathbone, who gave them the lead earlier, goes close to a second with a shot that flies over the crossbar.

    Good call from the Guv'nor!!

    Paul Ince has brought Yakou Meite back into the side and the man from the Ivory Coast has put them into the lead.

    Mamadou Loum's shot from the edge of the box is blocked, but it drops perfectly for Meite and with Swans goalkeeper Steven Benda having already dived, he powers it in from six yards.

    And all this after Loum had just survived a potential handball from a Swansea corner at the other end.

    Early breakthrough for the away side!

    Ollie Rathbone sends a low shot into the bottom corner after a short corner is worked to him on the edge of the area.

    West Brom 0-0 Bristol City

    Bristol City carry a goal threat wherever they play and they are almost in within the first few minutes.

    It needs a terrific challenge from Martin Kelly to prevent Nahki Wells getting through on goal.

  5. Postpublished at 20:05 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Blackburn 0-0 Sunderland

    Sunderland full-back Dennis Cirkin, who got their winner against Wigan on Saturday, flashes a shot across the face of goal as the away side look for an early opener.

  6. Postpublished at 20:04 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Swansea 0-0 Reading

    Good save from Reading goalkeeper Joe Lumley to keep his side level.

    A sharp turn and shot from Michael Obafemi and it requires a big hand from Lumley to deny the striker the opening goal.

    Norwich 0-0 Luton

    Luton have not arrived in Norfolk simply to soak up pressure.

    They have won three of their last four on the road and in-form striker Carlton Morris flashes a dangerous ball across the face of the Norwich box.

  8. Postpublished at 20:01 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Swansea 0-0 Reading

    Reading manager Paul Ince has certainly set his stall up tonight with Andy Carroll and Lucas Joao on the bench.

    Both started on Saturday in the 2-0 home loss to West Brom. Yakou Meite is in tonight and pushed into action through the middle.

  9. KICK-OFFpublished at 20:01 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Ok, so no early goals in our three 19:45 BST games then.

    We're now under way in our three 20:00 BST games at West Brom, Blackburn and Stoke.

    Huddersfield midfielder David Kasumu has played seven times this season.

    He's now been booked five times and sent off once.

    Huddersfield 0-0 Preston

    Big chance for the home side.

    Ben Jackson sends in a cross from the left and Danny Ward should get his header on target but he sends it over the crossbar.

    Swansea 0-0 Reading

    The Swansea.com Stadium's maintenance team have worked their magic.

    After a six-minute delay, the floodlights are back on and we are under way once more.

    Norwich 0-0 Luton

    Norwich are appealing for an early penalty at Carrow Road as Josh Sargent links up with Aaron Ramsey and the youngster goes down in the box.

    Nothing given on this occasion.

  14. Smith rings the changespublished at 19:50 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Norwich 0-0 Luton

    After their 2-1 loss at Watford on Saturday night, Dean Smith has made four changes to his side.

    He has brought in Ben Gibson, Gabriel Sara, Aaron Ramsey and in a late reshuffle, Danel Sinani for Kieran Dowell.

    The Canaries fans will want a big improvement as they were disappointing at Vicarage Road.

  15. Lights out for Swansea and Readingpublished at 19:49 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Swansea 0-0 Reading

    Gareth Vincent
    BBC Sport Wales at the Swansea.com Stadium

    We have something of a false start at the Swansea.com Stadium, where some - but not all - of the floodlights have gone out.

    Barely 30 seconds of the game had been played when the around half the lights failed.

    Both sets of players are attempting to keep warm as the stadium electrician gets to work.

  16. Fine away supportpublished at 19:46 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    There are more than 3,000 Sunderland fans at Blackburn.

    Preston, Luton and Bristol City have taken more than 1,000 supporters to Huddersfield, Norwich and West Brom.

    It's some fantastic support for a Tuesday night with cash so tight for so many.

  17. KICK-OFFpublished at 19:45 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    We're under way in our three 19:45 BST kick offs.

    Will we have some early goals before the three 20:00 BST games get started?

  18. Elsewhere in the Championshippublished at 19:42 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Swansea and Reading are both looking to bounce back after disappointing defeats on Saturday. The Swans were hammered 4-0 at leaders Burnley and lost influential forward Joel Piroe to a red card that means he starts a three-match ban tonight. Reading went down 2-0 at home to lowly West Brom but still start this evening in sixth.

    Blackburn v SunderlandImage source, Rex Features

    Blackburn could end the night top of the table if they can stop their 10-match run of alternating between winning and losing. They won at Middlesbrough on Saturday so, recent history suggests, they'll lose to Sunderland this evening. The Black Cats are managed by former Rovers boss Tony Mowbray who makes his first return to Ewood Park tonight after leaving in May after five years in charge.

    Former Wearsiders boss Alex Neil is starting to get Stoke going in the right direction after taking over last month. They host a Rotherham side who registered their first win under new gaffer Matt Taylor on Saturday.

    West Brom bounced back from sacking Steve Bruce by beating the Royals for just their second win of the season on Saturday. Only two teams have scored more Championship goals this season than their opponents tonight, Bristol City. However, only one team has conceded more.

  19. Huddersfield hope for home comfortspublished at 19:40 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Huddersfield v Preston (19:45 BST)

    It's been a very rocky start to the campaign for last season's beaten play-off finalists Huddersfield.

    The Terriers lost boss Carlos Corberan in pre-season and then sacked his replacement Danny Schofield after less than 70 days.

    Former Hertha Berlin coach Mark Fotheringham took charge last month and recorded victory in his only home game to date.

    Preston have found goals hard to come by in the league this season but hit four past the Terriers at the John Smith's Stadium in the League Cup.

  20. Norwich host happy Hatterspublished at 19:37 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

    Norwich v Luton (19:45 BST)

    Nathan JonesImage source, Rex Features

    It's been a tricky couple of weeks for Dean Smith's Norwich.

    The Canaries looked like they were set fair for their customary Championship stroll after seven wins from their first 11 matches.

    However, a run of one point in three games has soured the mood around Carrow Road somewhat, despite the fact they still sit in third place.

    Tonight's visitors Luton were last season's surprise package and victory tonight would move them into the top six again.

    This could be a cracker.
