    Blackburn 1-1 Millwall

    Blackburn substitute Yasin Ayari's long-range shot is pushed away by Millwall keeper Matija Sarkic.

    We have played four out of five added minutes at Ewood Park.

    Sunderland 0-1 Leicester

    Sunderland are causing Leicester lots of headaches with movement.

    Adil Aouchiche is lopped down by Wilfred Ndidi for a booking, and the home side get a free-kick which goes behind for a corner.

    Nervy finish.

    Blackburn 1-1 Millwall

    Although Millwall let Blackburn back into the game too easily with a poor pass out of defence, they have recovered enough to quell the home side's efforts to complete a comeback and go 2-1 up in this match.

    Sam Gallagher nearly latches on to John Buckley's forward pass, but he cannot reach the ball in time.

    Silly from Ben Pearson - he knows he's on a booking. He's got that feist in him and he can't control himself. It's a bit cynical, a bit daft.

    Great for Leeds though.

  5. RED CARD: Ben Pearson (Stoke)published at 21:32 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March

    Leeds 1-0 Stoke

    Ben Pearson, Stoke's combative midfielder, is dismissed for a cynical challenge on Dan James off the ball.

    Oliver Langford dishes out a second yellow. He's off.

    Sunderland 0-1 Leicester

    Sunderland's lack of firepower has been a major talking point this season, but you cannot fault the application.

    They've sent on Nazariy Rusyn to switch things up.

    If they don't find a goal, it'll be a fifth straight loss.

    Leeds look a bit out of steam. They need to use game management wisely but still go for that second goal.

    Joel Piroe and Wilfried Gnonto have both come off the subs bench and started really well.

    GOAL: Hull 1-1 Birminghampublished at 21:27 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March

    Lukas Jutkiewicz (82 mins)

    Right after coming on as Birmingham's final change of the night, Lukas Jutkiewicz heads home from just their second shot on target in this match.

    It was a wonderfully-angled cross in from Alex Pritchard from central midfield and it could be a massive point, which potentially also dents Hull's push for the play-off spots.

    As it stands, the Blues are one point clear of the drop zone, with two other sides as a buffer between themselves and 22nd-placed Stoke City.

    Hull remain in sixth place, but will be gutted not to capitalise on the opportunity to build a gap to those below them.

    Ali Al-Hamadi (62 mins)

    Ipswich are level!!

    Boss Kieran McKenna rolled the dice and made a massive four changes and it's instantly paid off.

    Substitute Wes Burns breaks down the right and the ball gets pulled back and fellow substitute Ali Al-Hamadi gets enough of a touch on it to get it into the net through the Bristol City bodies.

    I wondered if the visitors would rue hitting the post and missing that chance and they did... instantly.

    Blackburn 1-1 Millwall

    Not only are these sides level in this match, but they are also back to being level on points in the Championship table, and level on goal difference.

    Blackburn are in front on goals scored and both are two points clear of the bottom three, still led by Stoke, who are losing 1-0 at Leeds.

    Neil Harris has decided to bring on fresh legs in defence late in the game after an error at the back gifted the home side an equalising goal.

    Brooke Norton-Cuffy and Joe Bryan are on.

    Sunderland 0-1 Leicester

    Leicester have brought Wilfred Ndidi for his first league appearance since December. He replaced Yunus Akgun.

    Goalscorer Jamie Vardy is also off and Kelechi Iheanacho is on.

    Former Leeds United full-back on BBC Radio Leeds

    There's been a lot of crosses coming in from the left-hand side from Stoke City. Connor Roberts and Dan James haven't had loads of 90 minutes in the tank - they could be getting leggy.

    I see Archie Gray warming up...

    Leeds 1-0 Stoke

    How have Leeds not scored again?!

    Leeds break, Stoke at sea, Crysencio Summerville is in, it breaks for Dan James and somehow Daniel Iversen gets the ball away from his dazzling feet to keep it 1-0.

    It's utterly bananas this.

  14. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 21:21 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March

    Ipswich 0-1 Bristol City

    Bristol City should be 2-0 up here!

    Nahki Wells beats two defenders as he cuts inside into the box and fires a shot that is going in but clips the edge of the post.

    Ipswich are totally rattled.

    Leeds 1-0 Stoke

    My word this game is unmissable.

    The chances though are.

    Leeds get the ball through the middle and Mateo Joseph is in, takes it round Daniel Iversen and has the goal beckoning.

    Cue Ben Wilmot with a heroic block on the line.

    Magnificent defending. Not sure how it's not 2-0 which is testament to Wilmot's timing. Appeared from nowhere.

    Leeds 1-0 Stoke

    Stoke almost score with Leeds in Subbuteo man mode at the back, it was a cross from the left which Ki-Jana Hoever attacked with the home backline frozen.

    It just slipped wide.

    Almost a leveller.

    Anis Mehmeti (54 mins)

    Wowzers.

    A big goal in the Championship promotion race as Bristol City take the lead early in the second half.

    Rob Dickie does excellently to win the ball in midfield and quickly unleashes Anis Mehmeti.

    He runs into the box, cuts inside and drags a shot over Vaclav Hldaky into the net.

    As it stands, Ipswich will drop to third in the table, a point behind Leeds.

    Leeds 1-0 Stoke

    Bit like a train timetable, the tackles are getting later and later in this as tempers fray.

    Ben Pearson gets a yellow for scything down a runaway Dan James.

    The Wales and Leeds winger responds to his aggressor with a fierce word which only stokes the Potters midfielder.

    Tyrese Campbell then works a yard with Leeds seemingly distracted, and his low strike booms off the knees of goalkeeper Ilian Meslier.

    Coventry 4-0 Rotherhsm

    It will be no surprise to hear that Coventry have taken their foot off of the accelerator after scoring four first-half goals.

    Matty Godden, Callum O'Hare and Milan van Ewijk are on in a triple substitution by Mark Robins, which demonstrates the great depth that the Sky Blues have at the moment.

    They are straight into the thick of the action, too, as van Ewijk heads over the bar from Godden's cross.

    Ipswich 0-0 Bristol City

    We're five minutes into this second half at Portman Road and no changes so far for either side.

    If it stays like this I wonder how long before Kieran McKenna starts to switch things up.
