Charlton 1-1 Preston

It's been a great response to going behind by Preston.
Having equalised within seven minutes of conceding the goal, they're now pushing to take the lead as Alfie Devine draws a save from Will Mannion from a tight angle.

BBC Final Score at the Kassam Stadium

The cry of ‘yellows, yellows yellows’ rings around the Kassam Stadium after that opener from Oxford United.
The home side still have to defend some Watford counter chances, but there’s a feeling from most in the stadium they can handle that and go up the other end and get another one.

Oxford 1-0 Watford

This game has really sprung to life with Luca Kjerrumgaard and Nampalys Mendy seeing chances blocked for the visitors before Stan Mills crosses into the path of Jamie Donley at the other end, only for the Tottenham loanee to opt to take a touch, rather than a first-time shot and get crowded out.
CLOSE!published at 15:29 BST 11 April
Middlesbrough 0-0 Portsmouth

Boro knocking on the door.
Matt Targett whips a free-kick around the wall and it goes just wide.
Meanwhile, Pompey's Jordan Williams has received the first booking of the game for a foul on Tommy Conway.

Neil Maddison
Former Middlesbrough midfielder on BBC Radio Tees

It's another one of those games that we've seen so many times at the Riverside.
We're going to have to break them down, but they don't seem to have a lot of quality.
It's so tight, you're just looking for a little bit of movement, I think it's runs in behind, that's the better way, can you find a runner?

Oxford Utd 1-0 Watford

As a Watford fan could not care less about our result today, lazy team, bad owners. Would prefer an Oxford win to help their survival cause in all honestly. Following Watford is becoming soul destroying these days.

SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 15:26 BST 11 April
Sheffield United 0-1 Hull

Blow for Hull City.
They have been forced into an early change as Cody Drameh has picked up a knock and has to be replaced by Paddy McNair.

Lewis Dobbin (25 mins)

Charlton's lead did not last long.
Lewis Dobbin with a looping header from Brad Potts' that goes over Addicks goalkeeper Will Mannion and in at the far post.
The Aston Villa loanee has his ninth goal of the season.
Game on.

PENALTY APPEALpublished at 15:25 BST 11 April
Leicester 0-0 Swansea

Now then.
Swansea are certain they should have a penalty as Gustavo Nunes goes to ground in the penalty area under the challenge of Luke Thomas who he had skipped around but ref Sam Allison thinks he's got some of the ball and we play on.
No VAR in the Championship. The debate will rumble on.

Southampton 0-0 Derby

All Southampton at the moment.
Finn Azaz fires wide before Caspar Jandar sees an effort blocked.
No way through yet for Saints, though.

Postpublished at 15:23 BST 11 April
Middlesbrough 0-0 Portsmouth

Aidan Morris has a dig from long range but it goes wildly off-target for the home side.
They have started this one on the front foot, however, as they look to close the gap to Ipswich who won at local rivals Norwich at lunchtime.
GOAL: Stoke 0-1 Blackburnpublished at 15:23 BST 11 April
Adam Forshaw (21 mins)

Another big goal near the bottom of the table.
Nice move from Blackburn as Ryan Alebisou slips in Adam Forshaw on the right of the box to lash a first-time shot past Gavin Bazunu and into the corner.
His second Rovers goal and the biggest so far as Rovers inch further away from the drop-zone.

Postpublished at 15:21 BST 11 April
Middlesbrough 0-0 Portsmouth

News of that Oxford goal means Pompey have dropped into the bottom three for the time being.
Their keeper, Nicolas Schmid, was down for a few worrying minutes but looks OK to continue for now.
GOAL: Oxford 1-0 Watfordpublished at 15:19 BST 11 April
Myles Peart-Harris (19 mins)

Big breakthrough for the basement battlers...
Cameron Brannagan whips in a free-kick from the right, it's glanced on at the near post and drops kindly for Myles Peart-Harris to spin on the bouncing ball and arrow a shot past Egil Selvik and into the bottom corner.
The U's are out of the drop zone as things stand, but a lot of football left to play today.

'Saints have got into a stride'published at 15:18 BST 11 April
Southampton 0-0 Derby
Jo Tessem
Ex-Southampton midfielder on BBC Radio Solent

Saints have got into a stride and a rhythm, they're still a little bit rusty, I think the wind is playing a part, the passes are moving a little bit.
GOAL: Charlton 1-0 Prestonpublished at 15:18 BST 11 April
Joe Rankin-Costello (18 mins)

He doesn't miss this time!
Joe Rankin-Costello headed against the post inside four minutes but this time he sweeps home from a long throw-in.
Sonny Carey launched the ball into the Preston box and it was flicked on by Lloyd Jones, before Rankin-Costello tucked home his second goal for the Addicks.

Postpublished at 15:18 BST 11 April
Stoke 0-0 Blackburn

First real chance of the game goes to the visitors as Ryoya Morishita is left unmarked in the box to collect a Todd Cantwell pass but can only fire wide with only Gavin Bazunu to beat.
Postpublished at 15:18 BST 11 April
Southampton 0-0 Derby

Southampton are the Championship's in-form team and they've made a strong start against their fellow play-off chasers Derby.
A flurry of corners comes to nothing for the hosts but Saints applying the early pressure.

'Portsmouth are playing quite a high line'published at 15:15 BST 11 April
Middlesbrough 0-0 Portsmouth
Neil Maddison
Former Middlesbrough midfielder on BBC Radio Tees

I think that will be an avenue of success for Boro because Portsmouth are playing quite a high line and I think there's space in behind there to exploit.
Postpublished at 15:15 BST 11 April
Oxford 0-0 Watford

For the first time in four matches Oxford have negotiated the opening 10 minutes without conceding, so that's a positive for Matt Bloomfield at least.
Imran Louza has blazed over the U's bar, though.
