Blackburn have to keep the ball better, be more creative and Jon Dahl Tomasson has a big job to do at half-time.

The game's been very scrappy but when Sunderland have put the ball in the box Rovers have defended well.

In the last 15-20 minutes, it's descended into a scrappy affair. It's been bitty and the game's been devoid of quality.

Shot, save, repeat.

Again Millwall's George Saville calls Daniel Bachmann into action. This one is a routine take for the Watford goalkeeper.

Two goals from Ross Stewart, one at both ends, leaves this cracking clash delicately poised at 1-1.

In the first of four added minutes at the end of the first half, Patrick Roberts drills a shot just off target for Sunderland.

He cut in from the right to find space and time to shoot, but his effort flashes wide.

There is no surprise in the fact that Millwall have been quick to test Watford goalkeeper Daniel Bachmann.

An in-swinging corner from George Saville needs the keeper's intervention to see it over he bar.

Ryan Hedges shouts in pain after his latest clash with Dennis Cirkin.

He is down and play is eventually stopped so he can receive some treatment. It's not a head knock, just a thump in the back.

An ugly looking attempt at a slide tackle from Dennis Cirkin on Ryan Hedges sees the Sunderland man booked.

The Black Cats were trying to keep the pressure on high up the pitch, but the referee wasn't having any of the overzealousness there.

Action is back under way at Vicarage Road.

Ten-man Watford have it all to do against a Millwall side that looked comfortable at 1-0 up in the first half.

Sunderland have a few set pieces to defend.

Neither trouble the hosts nearly as much as the one that led to the opening own goal.

Blackburn invite a little more pressure on themselves than they'd like as they lose possession trying to play out from the back.

Sunderland do well to work the ball out to their right, and after a few stop overs Patrick Roberts wastefully swings a cross deep and well beyond his team-mates lurking in the box.

It's become a bit stop start with fouls flying in left and right.

In among them, Blackburn's Tyler Morton is shown a yellow card for his challenge on Jack Clarke.

After you have scored a goal you want to be tight, slow the game down a bit, but Sunderland went right up the other end, it was a soft penalty and Ross Stewart has dispatched it into the net.

Milwall have looked great against a Watford side that has struggled from the get go.

It will be a difficult second half for the Hornets, who are of course also a man down.

It was just what you need. It was a really good ball in from Tyler Morton, bang on the money and Daniel Ayala attacked it really well.

But it seemed to take a couple of ricochets and I think it's come off a Sunderland player into his own net.

Blackburn had been under a bit of pressure but they've gone right up the other end and put the ball in the net. It's a good start for them.

There will be five minutes of injury time at the end of the first half at Vicarage Road.

How that will go is anyone's guess because this game has thrown plenty up so far already.

We are yet to see a shot on goal in this one, but both sides are set up to attack and Sunderland have had the pressure on for a few minutes now.

Chances are very much at a premium.

Bad just got worse for Watford.

They are a goal down, have lost one of their best players to injury and are now a man down after Hassane Kamara is shown a straight red card.

He lashes out at Danny McNamara in a coming together in the box. Grim stuff from the Hornets so far.

Bradley Dack goes looking for an early goal for Blackburn. He meets a Tyler Morton corner and fires just over.
