  1. Huddersfield 0-1 Southampton

    Huddersfield come close to equalising early in the second half against Southampton.

    Josh Koroma receives the ball and shoots but his shot is deflected behind for a corner.

  2. Birmingham 1-1 Sheff Wed

    Birmingham fought back just before the break to level the scores against Sheffield Wednesday.

    Now they've almost taken the lead early in the second half.

    Juninho Bacuna finds Koji Miyoshi who then tees up Jay Stansfield but his effort is blocked by the Owls.

  3. goal

    GOAL: Bristol City 2-2 Middlesbrough

    Matt Crooks (52 mins)

    Middlesbrough are level.

    Big Matt Crooks finds a yard in the box and zings it past Max O'Leary to spark wild scenes on the away section.

    Bristol City's lead has been smashed.

  4. goal

    GOAL: Swansea 2-1 Hull

    Jaden Philogene (48 mins)

    He's in some form, and the ex-Cardiff man has got one back at Swansea 82 seconds after the restart.

    That's now four goals and five assists in nine games for the summer arrival Jaden Philogene who lashes past Carl Rushworth from the left of the area.

    Hull boss Liam Rosenior made a couple of changes at the break and is already reaping the rewards. Next goal wins?

  5. GREAT SAVE!

    Norwich 1-0 QPR

    The QPR reaction has arrived. Kenneth Paal has stung the palms of George Long in the Norwich goal within two minutes of the restart.

  6. goal

    GOAL: Bristol City 2-1 Middlesbrough

    Zak Vyner own goal (50 mins)

    Howler from Zak Vyner, who gets it all wrong and heads the ball past goalkeeper Max O'Leary.

    Middlesbrough back in it!

  7. goal

    GOAL: Preston 1-0 Cardiff

    Milutin Osmajic (48 mins)

    A great start to the second half for Preston.

    Milutin Osmajic fires home from the right hand side of the box and beats Cardiff keeper Runar Runarsson.

    That's Osmajic's fourth goal of the season and he must like Deepdale - all of those goals have come at home.

  8. 'Expect a reaction'

    Norwich 1-0 QPR

    Simon Lappin
    Former Norwich midfielder on BBC Radio Norfolk

    Norwich will have to expect a reaction from QPR, they are going to give this a go.

  9. KICK-OFF

    Back under way.

  10. Championship half-time headlines

    #bbcefl

    • Liam Manning's first game as Bristol City boss has been a joy so far as Taylor Gardner-Hickman and Tommy Conway goals have given them a 2-0 lead at home to Middlesbrough
    • Adam Armstrong's penalty just before half-time has put in-form Southampton ahead against struggling Huddersfield
    • Morgan Whittaker and Finn Azaz goals have given Plymouth the advantage against Sunderland
    • Swansea have belied their disappointing form to lead Hull City 2-0 at the Liberty
    • Hwang Ui-jo has given Norwich the lead against QPR, Scott Wharton gave Blackburn the lead against Stoke, while Matty Godden's goal has Coventry up at Millwall
    • Two goals, one apiece, in the last minutes of the half have seen Birmingham and Sheffield Wednesday level at the break
    • League leaders Leicester have been held by Watford with the score goalless

  11. 'A goal apiece is fair'

    HT: Birmingham 1-1 Sheff Wed

    Alex Nicholls
    Former Walsall striker on BBC Radio WM

    On the whole going into half-time at 1-1 is a fair reflection.

    We expected a bit more from Blues, but a goal apiece is fair.

  12. HALF-TIME

    Huddersfield 0-1 Southampton

    Adam Armstrong's goal on the stroke of half-time gives Southampton the lead in this one.

    A blow for Huddersfield who'd performed well up until that point.

    Southampton celebrate goalRex Features

  13. HALF-TIME

    Leicester 0-0 Watford

    Nothing doing goalwise at the King Power Stadium.

    Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has had a few digs, but Daniel Bachmann has been impressive between the Hornets sticks.

  14. HALF-TIME

    Birmingham 1-1 Sheff Wed

    All over in the first half at St Andrew's.

    George Byers thought he'd given Sheffield Wednesday the lead at the break.

    But moments later Juninho Bacuna hit back for Birmingham.

  15. HALF-TIME

    Stoke 0-1 Blackburn

    Blackburn lead at half-time against Stoke.

    Scott Wharton's header sent Rovers ahead but his efforts were shortlived as he was substituted moments later for a clash of heads.

    Stoke yet to get back on level terms in this one.

  16. HALF-TIME

    Plymouth 2-0 Sunderland

    Sunderland's recent revival has been truly tested down in the south west, as a brilliant Argyle first-half has put the hosts in control.

    Both goals were eye-catching. Morgan Whittaker and Finn Azaz both came up with rippers to beat Anthony Patterson.

    Work to do if Sunderland are to avoid a miserable hike home.

  17. HALF-TIME

    Bristol City 2-0 Middlesbrough

    What a start for Liam Manning and the Robins!

    Taylor Gardner-Hickman's showstopper and a Tommy Conway penalty have been the difference so far.

    Middlesbrough had the ball in the net before all that, but Isaiah Jones' effort was chalked off.

  18. HALF-TIME

    Swansea 2-0 Hull

    Swansea stunned Hull with two goals in six minutes, Jamie Paterson working space to fire into the bottom corner to break the deadlock and then seeing a stinging shot saved by Ryan Allsop allowing Jerry Yates to poke home his fifth of the season.

    It's all being going pretty well for Liam Rosenior. Can he rouse his troops into a comeback?

  19. HALF-TIME

    Preston 0-0 Cardiff

    Goalless at the break at Deepdale.

    Not much to separate Preston and Cardiff in this one.

  20. goal

    GOAL: Birmingham 1-1 Sheff Wed

    Juninho Bacuna (45+3 mins)

    Wow. An equaliser and what a hit.

    Juninho Bacuna beats off the Sheffield Wednesday defenders to fire Birmingham level with an impressive strike on the stroke of half-time!
