    HT: West Brom 1-1 Hull City

    Reporting for 5 Live Sport

    'He’s one of our own' sing the away fans! You’d think you can’t miss Lewie Coyle in the his black wrap-around facemask but he’s managed to get in the box and volley from a well-placed floated cross from Scott Twine.

    Albion boss Carlos Corberan has been jumping up and down and screaming at his players for most of this half, although curiously, he’s sat down now, maybe he’s just taking a moment before the break.

  2. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:56 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2023

    Plymouth 2-1 Middlesbrough

    Two goals in four minutes toward the end of the half have Plymouth out in front in this exciting match at Home Park.

    Could go either way this one.

    Stoke 0-0 Cardiff

    Some enterprising play from both sides at times, but wasteful finishing, particularly from Dwight Gayle, means we are level at the break.

    Callum Robinson's deflected shot on the stroke of half-time struck the post and both sides will believe three points are there for the taking today.

  4. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:54 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2023

    Birmingham 1-0 Ipswich

    Birmingham with an unlikely lead at the break thanks to a Jay Stansfield goal inside the game's opening 15 minutes.

    Can Ipswich bounce back or will Rooney get his first win as Blues boss?

    A tight game at St. Andrew's.

  5. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:53 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2023

    Rotherham 0-0 QPR

    Nothing to separate these two out-of-form teams at the break.

    The home side have had the only two shots on target in the game but Asmir Begovic hasn't really been tested.

    Both of these teams are in the bottom three and will end the day there regardless of result here.

  6. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:53 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2023

    West Brom 1-1 Hull City

    Nothing to separate these two in-form teams at the break.

    Jed Wallace gave the home side the lead after some poor passing in a dangerous area from the Tigers but skipper Lewie Coyle drew them level before the break with a rare goal.

  7. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:53 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2023

    Preston 2-1 Coventry

    After going 1-0 down Preston have hit back with a vengeance and Coventry who were in dreamland earlier, ended that first half dazed and confused.

    A good back and forth at Deepdale.

  8. Postpublished at 15:52 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2023

    Stoke 0-0 Cardiff

    Far from a thriller at Stoke, but Dwight Gayle has missed two good chances in the past five minutes to give the hosts a half-time lead.

    Bristol City 0-0 Sheff Wed

    Level in terms of scoreline but not in terms of players on the pitch.

    Bottom side Sheffield Wednesday were reduced to 10 men when skipper Barry Bannan was sent off for a last man foul on Jason Knight.

    The managerless hosts will look to make their extra man count after the break.

  10. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:50 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2023

    Huddersfield 0-0 Watford

    These two teams have met 35 times across all four divisions and there has never been a 0-0.

    Goalless at the break.

  11. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:49 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2023

    Millwall 0-0 Southampton

    Both sides have had their chances but neither have stamped their authority on this match so far.

    It remains goalless at The Den at the break.

    Swansea 0-0 Sunderland

    Sunderland keeper Anthony Patterson saves from Jamal Lowe!

    This is the archetypal 'nice height for a keeper' penalty from Lowe, with Patterson saving comfortably to his right.

    The spot-kick was awarded after Daniel Ballard pulled Harry Darling down at a corner.

    Against the run of play would have been a massive understatement had Swansea scored there.

    Two goals in four minutes and Plymouth have turned this game on its head!

    After Bali Mumba's shot drew Argyle level Finn Azaz has fired one straight into the top corner and given the hosts the lead.

  14. PENALTY (Swansea)published at 15:47 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2023

    Swansea 0-0 Sunderland

    Penalty to Swansea!

    The 10 men have a great chance to take the lead as the referee spots an infringement from a corner.

    Millwall 0-0 Southampton

    Aaron Paul
    BBC Radio 5 Live commentator

    Wes Harding, who has two in his last two games, has just thundered a header onto the crossbar. That is Millwall's best and only real chance of the game.

    Saints have been patient in their build up and are dominating possession. Stuart Armstrong has curled their best opportunity over the bar.

    The visitors are controlling the tempo of this game, but are just lacking the final touch that has seen them score seven goals in their last three games.

    Two goals for Preston in two minutes.

    Coventry defender Kyle McFadzean gives away the penalty and the skipper Alan Browne doubles North End's lead.

    What a turn around!

    GOAL: West Brom 1-1 Hull Citypublished at 15:44 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2023

    Lewie Coyle (41 mins)

    All-square!

    Hull City skipper Lewie Coyle has the third league goal of his career!

    Scott Twine's cross comes to the skipper and he shows the kind of finishing touch you would not expect from a 28-year-old who now has three league goals in 237 games.

    Duane Holmes (38 mins)

    What a response from the hosts Preston at Deepdale.

    Coventry's Jay Dasilva makes a hash of a clearing header and it lands for Duane Holmes who shoots into the far corner of the net.

  19. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 15:41 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2023

    Millwall defender Wes Harding rattles the crossbar from close range.

    Saints escape.

    Swansea are holding on at the moment.

    Sunderland's Patrick Roberts cuts in from the right wing and shoots low and hard with his left foot, but Carl Rushworth pushes it on to the post and holds on to the ball at the second attempt.
