    QPR 0-0 Oxford

    A quiet first-half.

    Saving all the drama for the second?

    QPR 0-0 Oxford

    A sole minute added to this one Oxford might be quite relieved to hear.

    QPR 0-0 Oxford

    Another Rangers corner, another heart-rate raiser for Oxford.

    This time it’s Steve Cook who unravels near the lines but his strike goes whistling up above the net.

    Oxford having to absorb some pressure from the hosts now.

    Watford supporter here. Paulo hasn’t got a clue. Not only on his best side or even how they set up. Players look lost, gaps in the back and overloaded midfield that plays the ball backwards. ‘sigh’.

    AJ – Hertfordshire

  • CLOSE!published at 20:41 BST

    QPR 0-0 Oxford

    Oxford defender Sam Long puts in an absolutely vital header to intercept a pin-point pass from Amadou Mbengue towards Richard Kone bursting into the box.

    The resulting corner allows Karamoko Dembele to take aim but his rifled shot just steers wide.

    QPR 0-0 Oxford

    We’ve still got one game still in action, the 20:00 BST kick-off at Loftus Road, and Michael Frey is happy to be in the limelight.

    He winds up a shot from outside the box and unleashes with venom. It’s got a nice curl on it but ends up still stinging the Oxford keeper’s gloves.

    First shot on target all game and bar going in the net, a delicious one at that.

    Millwall 0-1 Coventry

    It was a comfortable first half, it was all about Asante, not just for the goal.

    Haji Wright is so important for Coventry, you need someone there to score those.

    Another promising half.

    Coventry are full of confidence and were rewarded after a Millwall mistake from Tristan Crama allowed for Haji Wright to open the scoring.

    Lions boss Alex Neil will have to rally his side at half-time because as it stands Coventry’s unbeaten streak sees no signs of being halted.

    Josh Maja’s first goal of the season means the Baggies lead in a game which hasn’t exactly set the pulse rate racing.

    Oscar Schwartau, on his 50th Canaries’ appearance, has been at the centre of anything good from the home side.

    He set up Emiliano Marcondes for a shot which Josh Griffiths did well to keep out before winning a free kick from which Harry Darling sent an effort over.

    A few boos around Carrow Road as the whistle went for the break.

    Portsmouth 1-0 Watford

    Very good from Portsmouth, pretty poor from Watford who are fortunate not to be out of this already.

    YangMin-hyeok’s first goal for Pompey threatened to open the floodgates with the South Korean having another effort saved and two off target.

    Marlon Pack also stung the hands of Watford goalkeeper Egil Selvik while Pompey custodian Josef Bursik is yet to make a save.

    The visitors main threat came from Nestory Irankunda until he was substituted when seemingly not injured.

    Norwich 0-1 West Brom

    We’ll have an extra two minutes at the end of the opening 45.

  • Postpublished at 20:32 BST

    Millwall 0-1 Coventry

    There’s been an extra four minutes added to the clock to make up for a lengthy treatment for Millwall defender Joe Bryan after he suffered a head injury earlier in the game.

    We’re into two added minutes.

    Well, that early Watford substitution provoked quite the reaction from the away fans.

    Nestory Irankunda stormed straight down the tunnel and a section of the Watford fans started singing “sacked in the morning” in the direction of their head coach Paulo Pezzolano in the dugout.

  • YELLOW CARDpublished at 20:30 BST

    Portsmouth 1-0 Watford

    YangMin-hyeok is having a field day out there.

    He intercepts a loose pass from Watford before hammering a shot wide.

    The Hornets’ Jeremy Petris is then cautioned for a foul.

    The visitors need the half-time whistle to come.

  • YELLOW CARDpublished at 20:30 BST

    Millwall 0-1 Coventry

    Coventry’s Haji Wright is first to find the net and now the first Sky Blues player to be shown yellow.

  • Postpublished at 20:28 BST

    Millwall 0-1 Coventry

    GOAL…. or maybe not.

    Coventry take a fascinating throw by chucking it up towards the sky, confusing both their opponents and the stands.

    It pays off though as it creates utter madness in the box until it finds Tatsuhiro Sakamoto at the post ready for another tap into the net.

    It rolls in but the Japanese winger can’t celebrate because the flag is already up against one of his teammates.

  • Postpublished at 20:25 BST

    Portsmouth 1-0 Watford

    Andre Dozzell is the next Portsmouth man to get a shot away.

    This one is off target but a second Pompey goal seems a matter of time.

    That Watford substitution does look odd.

  • Postpublished at 20:22 BST

    Millwall 0-1 Coventry

    Coventry can’t clear away a delivery into the box and it’s threaded straight back in towards Camiel Neghli.

    It’s like the winger is caught a little unawares though as his attempt at goal is less of a strike and more of a tame pass towards Sky Blues keeper Carl Rushworth.

  • SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 20:22 BST

    Portsmouth 1-0 Watford

    Watford have been, now let’s be kind, poor.

    Boss Paulo Pezzolano makes a change with 10 minutes to go before the break and it’s not because of an injury.

    Rocco Vata is on for Nestory Irankunda.
