    Rotherham 0-0 Huddersfield

    Despite losing Sorba Thomas after his red card, Huddersfield come close to taking the lead against Rotherham in the aftermath.

    Jack Rudoni works on to Jaheim Headley's ball but he fires off target from long range.

    Game over for Stoke?

    Norwich sail the ball in to the Potters box from a corner kick, Kenny McLean's shot is blocked and deflected into the path of Ashley Barnes who tucks away the rebound.

    It's a long way back for the home side now.

    As it stands, Norwich continue their romp toward the play-offs and Stoke will remain just two points from the bottom three.

    Plymouth 0-1 Preston

    Plymouth might be chasing this game but they're throwing everything they can at Preston.

    Morgan Whittaker is sent in down the right and tries his luck from a tight angle but North End deal with the danger.

  4. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 16:21 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    West Brom 2-0 Bristol City

    Bristol City come close to getting one back as Jason Knight's header gets deflected and clips the bar before going over for a corner.

  5. 'It has to go in the back of the net'published at 16:21 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Birmingham 0-1 Watford

    Matt Mitchell
    BBC Radio WM summariser

    You start to worry because Koji Miyoshi has done ever so well. It's all there; great composure, great footwork. It has to go in the back of the net and how the goal keeper has got TWO hands on that I'll never know.

  6. GREAT SAVE!published at 16:20 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Birmingham 0-1 Watford

    How has the Watford keeper Daniel Bachmann kept that out? [insert shocked emoji face].

    From just outside the area, Birmingham's Koji Miyoshi let's one rip and it looked to be going into the back of the net.

    But he is denied.

    Blues trying so hard to find this equaliser.

  7. GREAT SAVE!published at 16:19 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Ipswich 4-0 Sheffield Wednesday

    The confidence is oozing out of Ipswich, who are 4-0 up but want more.

    Massimo Luongo almost adds a spectacular fifth, taking a punt from the halfway line and almost finds the top corner but Owls keeper James Beadle scurried back in time to make the save.

  8. Some Wednesday fans head for exitpublished at 16:19 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Final Score

    As the fourth goal went in, quite a few Sheffield Wednesday fans started to walk out of the away end.

    'Cheerio', sing the Ipswich fans.

    I’m sure they’re just keen to beat the queue for the rail replacement bus, as the trains aren’t working on their exit route from Ipswich today.

  9. RED CARDpublished at 16:18 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Rotherham 0-0 Huddersfield

    Red cardImage source, Rex Features

    Sorba Thomas sees red and Huddersfield are down to 10!

    He's given his marching orders having received his second yellow card of the afternoon.

    Not ideal given this should have been a game Huddersfield would aim to win in their pursuit of Championship survival, but they will see out the final 30 minutes a player short.

  10. Postpublished at 16:18 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Birmingham 0-1 Watford

    Birmingham come close!

    Juninho Bacuna shoots just wide.

    The midfielder had a couple of options to pass and set up one of his teammates, who arguably, were in better shooting positions.

    But ... you got to test the opponents keeper every now and then - right?

  11. Postpublished at 16:17 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Middlesbrough 0-0 Blackburn

    Let's not forget that despite Blackburn's lowly league position, they do have Championship top scorer Sammie Szmodics in their ranks.

    Harry Pickering whips a free-kick into the Middlesbrough box and Szmodics gets on the end of it.

    But he squanders the chance for a 22nd league goal of the season as he diverts it over the bar.

  12. 'There's a game now'published at 16:16 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Stoke 0-2 Norwich

    Mike Pejic
    Former Stoke defender on BBC Radio Stoke

    Stoke are playing a bit better now. They are matching up with players in similar positions; they are pressing up from the front.

    There's a game now in the second half.

  13. Postpublished at 16:14 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Middlesbrough 0-0 Blackburn

    Blackburn fighting to take the lead against Middlesbrough this side of the break.

    Ryan Hedges beats a succession of Middlesbrough defenders before teeing up Sam Gallagher to try his luck from the edge of the box.

    Boro keeper Seny Dieng palms it away.

  14. goal

    GOAL: Ipswich 4-0 Sheffield Wednesdaypublished at 16:14 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Omari Hutchinson (48 mins)

    Four goals. Three points. Two goals for Omari Hutchinson.

    Nathan Broadhead scored Ipswich's third before half-time and turns provider this time, allowing the on-loan Chelsea forward to drill home and surely ensure the Tractor Boys are going second.

    Sheffield Wednesday's two half-time changes haven't had the desired effect and the relegation-threatened Owls will now have to turn their attention to the next game.

    Jed Wallace (50 mins)

    West Brom double their lead at The Hawthorns and are in control now against the Robins.

    The hosts play it out from the back and Connor Townsend eventually passes the ball into the box for captain Jed Wallace, who has a simple tap in to make it 2-0.

    With Norwich up against Stoke, West Brom will stay five points ahead of the Canaries in fifth if they win today.

    Birmingham 0-1 Watford

    Birmingham have started this second half like they did the first, full of wiggle and gas - high energy!

    Watford are ahead thanks to a Blues mistake just before the break.

    You've got to think the home side are going to throw the kitchen-sink at their opponents now to avoid slipping closer to the Championship's bottom three.

  17. Postpublished at 16:13 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Ipswich 3-0 Sheffield Wednesday

    If this result stays as it is, Ipswich will put all the pressure back to Leeds tomorrow in the race for automatic promotion when they take on Millwall.

    Ipswich have come out to this second half as they ended the first as Omari Hutchinson weaved into the box but his shot drifted over.

  18. Postpublished at 16:10 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Stoke 0-2 Norwich

    Norwich are firmly in the control of this one at the bet365 Stadium.

    Stoke have made a pair of changes in midfield.

    Can the 19th-placed Potters peel themselves off the canvas?

    Fortunately for them at the moment the two teams below them, just outside the bottom three, are either losing or drawing their matches.

  19. Postpublished at 16:10 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Rotherham 0-0 Huddersfield

    Huddersfield could do with a win against bottom side Rotherham and they've come close right from the restart in the second half.

    Delano Burgzorg fires just a touch too high from Ben Wiles' delivery early on.
