    Leicester break the deadlock at the John Smith's Stadium.

    Stephy Mavididi is the man who grabs it.

    He takes a couple of stepovers on the left of the box before unleashing a low shot and it goes straight through the legs of Lee Nicholls.

    That's Mavididi's first goal for the Foxes, who are on course to make it two wins from two at the start of the season.

    Southampton 3-3 Norwich

    Denied!

    The linesman's flag is up and Norwich have a goal ruled offside.

    Ashley Barnes had the ball in the back of the net and was about to start celebrating.

    This game is mad.

    Huddersfield 0-0 Leicester

    Jamie Vardy is on for Kelechi Iheanacho for the final quarter of the game.

    Plenty of time for the former England striker to get the party started for the Foxes.

    Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall curled wide for the visitors a few moments ago.

    Kenneth Paal (65 mins)

    Cardiff have been on top with Aaron Ramsey hitting the bar just a few moments ago - but now they're further behind.

    A long ball over the top releases Sinclair Armstrong, who takes his time to assess his options before pulling the ball back for the onrushing left-back Kenneth Paal, who scores with a fine first-time finish.

    John Swift rolls the penalty low into the bottom corner and Carl Rushworth is beaten despite diving the right way.

    It was a definite penalty, with Harry Darling tripping Conor Townsend.

    The Swansea defender may have been fortunate not to get a second yellow card having been booked just moments earlier.

    West Brom are in total control with Swansea enduring a torrid afternoon.

    What a goal to give Hull the lead!

    Ozan Tufan from the edge of the penalty area, turns and swings a shot into the top corner - that's his second of the game.

    Class finish and Hull have turned things around.

  8. PENALTY TO WEST BROMpublished at 16:24 British Summer Time 12 August 2023

    West Brom 2-0 Swansea

    Swansea centre-back Harry Darling chops down Conor Townsend, and West Brom have the chance to score a third from the spot.

    Millwall 0-0 Bristol City

    Millwall bring on Tom Bradshaw, their top scorer last season with 17 goals.

    Duncan Watmore is the man replaced, soon after Matty James whipped a shot wide of the Lions goal.

  10. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 16:23 British Summer Time 12 August 2023

    West Brom 2-0 Swansea

    Swansea finally offer something going forward as Joel Piroe's deep cross is helped back across goal by Josh Key and Jerry Yates' first-time volley crashes back of the bar.

    It is the first time this afternoon that West Brom have been left scrambling defensively.

    Young Sunderland midfielder Jobe Bellingham gives the ball away cheaply in the Preston half.

    It's worked to Will Keane whose shot is blocked but it falls for Mads Frokjaer with a low side-foot finish.

    Birmingham 0-0 Leeds

    Keshi Anderson comes as close as anyone has to breaking the deadlock at St Andrew's.

    Brilliant finish from Che Adams and Saints are level again and St Mary's erupts.

    No hesitation from the substitute who scores his second goal of the season.

    Millwall 0-0 Bristol City

    The visitors are asking most of the questions at the start of the second half, but Millwall are defending resolutely.

    The Robins are looking for a first win in five trips to The Den.

    Ipswich 1-0 Stoke

    Stoke on top in this second half.

    They've had all the chances since the break.

    Can they nab an equaliser?

  17. CHANCEpublished at 16:14 British Summer Time 12 August 2023

    Watford 0-0 Plymouth

    Plymouth midfielder Adam Randell is through and gets a shot on goal but he is denied by Daniel Bachmann in the Watford net.

    Brilliant goalkeeping because if Bachmann doesn't come out to meet Randell it's probably a goal.

    Joe Edwards can't put away the rebound and fires the ball over the bar.

    That was probably Plymouth's best chance of the game.

    Conor McAleny has equalised for Salford City making it 1-1 against Crawley Town.
