Southampton with a free kick about 15 yards outside the Leicester box, on the nearside.

Carlos Alcaraz and Ryan Manning are over the ball.

And Alcaraz's right footed curling effort is just wide.

No bother for Mads Hermansen in the visitors goal.

In the 14 league meetings between Hull and Coventry this century, the home team has won just three times, losing eight of those games.

We're nearing the midway point of the second half.

Southampton's Flynn Downes is coming off injured.

He is replaced by Carlos Alcaraz.

Cyrus Christie enters the penalty area and sends a cross along the face of goal.

No-one can get on the end of it.

Tyler Morton is a scruffy-looking player - one of those, with his socks down.

Seeing him moving across the field, he looks like he's got a bit of pace.

He always wants the ball. He's always looking around and making angles.

Substitute Cyrus Christie sends a shot over the target for Hull, to the sound of joyful mockery from Coventry's fans.

Tyler Morton then comes on for Jean Michael Seri.

I'm not going to sugarcoat it Southampton fans, this is a robbery.

Leicester have come into St Mary's wearing ski-masks and taken this place over.

At the moment at least.

We are back underway at St Mary's.

Can the hosts get themselves back into this one?

Notts County still lead with 10 minutes played in the second half at Salford.

Matt Palmer's just sent a shot over the crossbar for the visitors.

20-year-old Liverpool loanee Tyler Morton looks like he could be coming on in midfield for Hull, who win a corner.

Nervy moments for Hull goalkeeper Matt Ingram, who's at full stretch as a Josh Eccles shot from distance goes wide, then parries Liam Kelly's effort away.

Hull have changed things. Connolly and Delap are playing centrally, with Jaden Philogene in the centre and Cyrus Christie overlapping.

The passing is a bit sharper at the start of this half.

Ben Wilson takes no chances in Coventry's goal with a Liam Delap shot that bounces up awkwardly off the turf.

Aaron Connolly then tries to race on to a ball but appears to get his timing wrong.

Just when you think Hull might have set the pattern of the early stages of the second half, Coventry threaten again. Yasin Asari continues to be a productive creative presence for them.

Play restarts at Hull, who've made a change at the break.

Cyrus Christie replaced Sporting loanee Ruben Vinagre, who didn't have the soundest of performances at the back.

Leicester wasted no time taking the lead at Southampton.

Jamie Vardy took just 20 seconds to find the net and Kasey McAteer doubled their advantage.

Southampton's fightback came via Sam Edozie, who prospered from a lapse at the back from Leicester.

But that third Leicester goal just before the break has given Saints an uphill battle when we return for the second half.

Boos ring around St Mary's. Can the hosts turn it around?

Southampton look shocking down the right hand side.

They don't look comfortable at all.

Oh Leicester could have scored a third.

Striker Stephy Mavididi is fed the ball inside the Southampton box, there is no pressure on him, and he crosses a soft low ball across the face of goal.

He should have just blasted it.

In League Two, Notts County will go two points clear of Gillingham at the top if they can preserve the lead afforded to them by David McGoldrick's header.

Macaulay Langstaff almost doubled their lead before the break, while 18th-placed Salford have matched their tally of two shots on target but had just 36% of possession.

Luke Williams' side are on course to continue their impressive start to the season.

End-to-end stuff now.

Both goalkeepers Mads Hermansen for Leicester and Gavin Bazunu for Southampton are being called into action, often.

A few minutes left before the halftime oranges.
