    It looks like Leyton Orient are going seven points clear of Stevenage at the summit... a cross from Craig Clay has been turned into his own net by a Sutton defender and it's 2-0 to the Os.

    Can you believe it!

    Swansea are level from 3-0 down.

    Joel Piroe heads a cross against the right-hand post and the rebound falls to Liam Cullen, who slides and scuffs it in!

    He's only just on as a substitute.

    Plymouth have a second against Morecambe, Sam Cosgrove has doubled the advantage against basement boys Morecambe inside the final 10 minutes. With Ipswich trailing and Sheffield Wednesday goalless, it's looking like a good afternoon for the Green Army...

    Preston North End 0-1 QPR

    Andy Bayes
    BBC Radio Lancashire commentator for Preston North End

    This game is getting more and more scrappy and we are getting more and more whistles from the referee.

    Both captains are being spoken to by the ref.

    At the moment it's hard to see where another goal is going to come from.

    Bristol 1-2 Stoke City

    Alistair Durden
    BBC Points West Commentator for Bristol City

    Kal Naismith bends a cross in with pace and it slams into the head of Andy King, who connects but the ball is guided just three yards wide of the post.

    What a chance for the home side, who're trying to find that equaliser.

    He's back!

    Brought on for the 10-man visitors for his first appearance since August, the Scotland striker Ross Stewart keeps his cool to finish calmly.

    Hull completely cut apart by one ball over the top by Patrick Roberts.

    Six goals in eight games for Stewart now.

    Devante Cole has his second for Barnsley who now lead lowly Burton 2-0. That's eight for the season for Cole and it looks like a fifth straight league win for his side.

    March 1958, the last time Bristol Rovers won at Charlton... some more slack defending and John Marquis has just grabbed his second in 11 minutes after coming off the bench to complete the turnaround and put the visitors ahead at the Valley. Is it going to be a first away win over the Addicks in 21 attempts?

    JUST about!

    Brandon Thomas-Asante gets up to take the penalty after he had been felled in the area by Cameron Humphreys.

    The sub sees his spot-kick saved by Viktor Johansson in the Millers net but reacts quickest to convert on the rebound.

    Real hope now for Swansea!

    A shot from the left hand side of the penalty area is well saved down low by Coventry goalkeeper Ben Wilson.

    The rebound drifts towards the far post and Jay Fulton gets to it, reaches up with a right foot and slams in a shot.

    Great finish and game on!

    The home side have the chance to put this one to bed...

    Huddersfield 0-1 Watford

    Lee Nicholls makes a great save from point-blank range to deny Ismaila Sarr's header.

    How important could that prove to be? Huddersfield are still in this.

    Are Burnley heading six points clear?

    This may have killed off Middlesbrough.

    A corner from the left is swung in towards the near post and it's flicked into his own goal by Boro's Jonny Howson.

    Bristol City 1-2 Stoke City

    Before today's game Bristol City had conceded nine goals at Ashton Gate compared to 21 away.

    Whilst Stoke City had scored 11 goals away, which is a handful fewer than at home.

    So both sides are flipping the script essentially today.

    West Brom 2-0 Rotherham

    ALL West Brom now.

    Brandon Thomas-Asante sees a shot brilliantly saved by Viktor Johansson in the Millers goal before former Baggies defender Lee Peltier gets in the way of Grady Diangana's rebound.

    All change! Plymouth are back on top of the live league table, Niall Ennis has ghosted in to touch home the opening goal with 20 minutes remaining against Morecambe at Home Park.

    David McGoldrick has his second and Derby lead 3-0 against Forest Green at Pride Park, deceiving a defender and curling into the corner.

    Burnley have turned the game around!

    Manuel Benson has his second in less than 10 minutes - Jay Rodriguez looks to get on the end of his cross but the ball drifts off the post and in.

    A bit of luck for the Championship leaders but they lead Boro and are going six points clear as it stands.
