    GOAL: West Brom 2-0 Swansea

    Carl Rushworth og (50 mins)

    West Brom celebrateRex Features

    West Brom double their lead and it's an ugly own goal from Swansea keeper Carl Rushworth.

    In truth, there will not be many scrappier goals at the Hawthorns this season.

    John Swift's corner is met by a Darnell Furlong header.

    The ball takes various deflections before hitting the crossbar, then dropping down and hitting Rushworth on the back and into the empty net.

    It was not pretty, but West Brom won't mind a bit.

  2. Brady waiting for Blues deadlock to be broken

    Birmingham 0-0 Leeds

    Final Score at St Andrew's

    Tom BradyPA Media

    In language Tom Brady understands, it’s “scoreless” here, as Birmingham touchdown at home for the first time this season.

    The seven-time Super Bowl champion is sat directly opposite me at a cloud-clad St Andrew's, and the aviator shades have remained firmly on. Flanked by a host of big, burly security guards his defence as strong as his new team.

    Birmingham compact in that first 45 minutes, with Leeds showing a tenacity going forward. But if you don’t hit the target you won’t score.

    Goalless as the second half starts.

  3. Huddersfield 0-0 Leicester

    Huddersfield have lost 10 of their past 11 league games against Leicester.

    Moreover, the Terriers have lost their first two games of the season in league and cup.

    Leicester, meanwhile, are looking to win three league games in a row for the first time since January 2021.

    The Foxes ended their stint in the Premier League with a win over West Ham.

    The hosts have started the second half brightly, with Brahima Diarra forcing Jakub Stolarczyk into another save.

  4. Watford 0-0 Plymouth

    We are back under way at Vicarage Road.

    Which side will have changed into their shooting boots at half-time?

  5. Second half

    Time for the second halves of EFL games to get going again.

    Still plenty of time for scores and results to change.

    Four Championship games remain goalless.

  9. HALF-TIME

    #bbcefl

    The half-time whistles have (mostly) pinged up and down the country.

    If you're just joining us, here's what's happened in the first 45 minutes...

  10. goal

    GOAL: Hull 1-1 Sheff Wed

    Ozan Tufan (45+5 mins)

    No mistake from Hull's Ozan Tufan from the spot Hull are level against Sheffield Wednesday - the game has the scoreline the balance of play warrants.

  11. Penalty to Hull

    Clear spot kick.

  12. goal

    GOAL: Southampton 2-3 Norwich

    Jonathan Rowe (45+2 mins)

    Norwich celebratePA Media

    Jonathan Rowe is left totally unmarked on his own in the box and sends a floating header drifting passed the Saints keeper Gavin Bazunu who is rooted to the spot.

  13. Birmingham 0-0 Leeds

    Still yet to have a shot on target at St Andrew's as the first half comes towards a close...

  14. West Brom 1-0 Swansea

    Swansea wobble again at a set-piece, as a short corner is not dealt with and Okay Yokuslu's goalbound shot on the turn is blocked by Nathan Wood.

    It has been a fairly comfortable afternoon so far West Brom, with Swansea still struggling to get anything going.

    Bolton celebrateRex Features

    Bolton are flying!

    They have taken a three-goal lead at Cheltenham Town. Dion Charles with his second of the game just after a Liam Smith's own goal.

    Meanwhile, Paul Digby has put Cambridge United up against Fleetwood.

  16. Millwall 0-0 Bristol City

    The Robins are stirring in south-east London.

    First Joe Williams and then Nahki Wells have shots blocked by the home defence.

  17. goal

    GOAL: Hull 0-1 Sheffield Wednesday

    Juan Delgado (36 mins)

    Sheff Wed celebrateGetty Images

    Against the run of play Wednesday take the lead.

    A low cross finds Juan Delgado, who ruthlessly strikes home.

    Hull have been by far the more threatening but they trail.

  18. Watford 0-0 Plymouth

    Thirty-five minutes played at Vicarage Road.

    Lots of action, lots of mistakes, an interesting game so far between these two sides.

    Lots of quality and intrigue.

  19. Huddersfield 0-0 Leicester

    Leicester goalkeeper Jakub Stolarczyk has tipped a long-range effort from Josh Koroma over the bar.

    The Foxes have bossed possession, but have conceded a couple of chances too.
