Live Reporting

Adam Lanigan, Glenn Speller, Matt Cresswell and Oliver Brindle

  1. Blackburn 2-0 Millwall

    Some decent stuff from Blackburn as they work it wide to Matty Litherland.

    The debutant whips over a good early cross and Yuki Ohashi gets across his man, but he is a few yards beyond the far post with his glancing header.

    A third Rovers goal and this game would be done.

  2. PENALTY APPEAL

    Preston 0-0 Norwich

    Lewis Dobbin continues to look a threat and goes down in the Norwich box under a challenge by Harry Darling but the referee points to the corner flag instead of the penalty spot.

    Darling timed his tackle perfectly.

  3. Get Involved

    Southampton 0-1 Coventry

    That Dasilva tackle was so bad he should be sent off twice.

    Adam, Norwich

  4. Preston 0-0 Norwich

    Lewis Dobbin is played in behind for the home side but he is a yard offside and the linesman correctly puts his flag up.

    Dobbin hit his shot straight at Vladan Kovacevic anyway.

  5. 'This could change the game'

    Southampton 0-1 Coventry

    Jo Tessem
    Ex-Southampton midfielder on BBC Radio Solent

    That is spot on by the referee and Jay Dasilva just flies in with a straight leg!

    That could be a really nasty challenge, he is trying to get the ball but Welington gets there first and the challenge is really horrible.

    This red card could change the game now.

  6. Blackburn 2-0 Millwall

    A bit impetus from Millwall and they win a corner.

    Alfie Doughty swings it over with that reliable left foot but Jake Cooper heads well over.

  7. SUBSTITUTION

    Southampton 0-1 Coventry

    Down to 10 men, Coventry make an immediate change.

    Jake Bidwell replaces Josh Eccles as the visitors need to reorganise at the back.

  8. SUBSTITUTION

    Blackburn 2-0 Millwall

    No less than THREE changes from Millwall boss Alex Neil to his side.

    Caleb Taylor, Joe Bryan and Macaulay Langstaff have been summoned to action.

    Zak Sturge, Aidomo Emakhu and Thierno Ballo have not reappeared.

  9. Preston 0-0 Norwich

    No substitutes for either side at the break.

    Both sides are missing key attacking players with Preston missing Daniel Jebbison and Josh Sargent absent for the visitors and, in truth, there has been a lack of cutting edge in the final third so far.

    Can anyone step up in the second-half and break the deadlock?

  10. RED CARD

    Southampton 0-1 Coventry

    Jay Dasilva is dismissed for Coventry.

    The Coventry man flies into a challenge on Welington - it's industrial but is that a red?

    Referee Adam Herczeg thinks so with barely 90 seconds of the second period gone.

    Welington is receiving treatment.

  11. KICK-OFF

    #bbcefl

    How's your Saturday going so far?

    Are Blackburn about to get a rare home win and will Coventry go eight points clear at the top?

    Can Preston and Norwich conjure up a goal?

    All questions to be answered in the next 45 minutes - we're back at it.

  12. Get Involved

    HT: Southampton 0-1 Coventry

    Get Welington off the pitch, he is currently the weak link down the right side. Let’s have James Bree back.

    Jim, Hampshire

    Referee well in favour of Coventry. Eccles should have been sent off, numerous files on Scienza not properly punished - same old, same old.

  13. 'Millwall look like a poor beaten side'

    HT: Blackburn 2-0 Millwall

    Kevin Gallacher
    Former Blackburn striker on BBC Radio Lancashire

    The key to the rest of this game is to recognise this is a Millwall side that are sat in fourth in the table and look like a poor beaten side at the moment.

    You imagine they will not play like that in the second half and will be very different.

    I hope that Blackburn's approach will be the same as the first half, just have a go at Millwall and try and get some more goals to finish the game off.

  14. Still to come

    Championship (15:00 GMT)

    Once we are done with the lunchtime games we have eight more to come:

    • Bristol City v Middlesbrough
    • Charlton Athletic v Oxford United
    • Derby County v Portsmouth
    • Hull City v West Brom
    • Ipswich Town v Sheffield Wednesday
    • QPR v Leicester City
    • Sheffield United v Birmingham City
    • Watford v Stoke City

  15. Get Involved

    HT: Blackburn 2-0 Millwall

    Millwall always cave in at Ewood Park. They aren't alone in that. Far bigger clubs than Millwall have suffered at Ewood over the years.

  16. 'Comfortable for Coventry'

    Overall it has been a really good half for Coventry and they deserve to be 1-0 in front.

    They have bossed the play really, and we haven't seen a great deal from Southampton and I think they have given Coventry too much respect. They are playing three at the back, but it feels more like a five.

    I am absolutely positive that the Saints manager will do something different in the second half and so Coventry are going to have to be prepared for that.

    As it stands, it has been very comfortable for them

  17. HALF-TIME

    Blackburn 2-0 Millwall

    Blackburn players celebrate in front of their fansShutterstock

    A great half for Blackburn with those two goals for Andri Gudjohnsen and Yuki Ohashi bookending things.

    A bad half for Millwall and especially goalkeeper Max Crocombe. A poor save for the first goal and a huge defensive cock-up for the second.

    I'd keep clear of Lions boss Alex Neil foir the next 15 minutes!

    Blackburn well on course for three very welcome points.

  18. HALF-TIME

    Preston 0-0 Norwich

    Half-time and it remains goalless at Deepdale.

    Little of goalmouth action to tell you about in truth.

    Lewis Dobbin came closest to breaking the deadlock but his strike from outside the box was slightly off target.

    Michael Smith did have the ball in the back of the net for the home side but the referee had already blown up for a free-kick on City keeper Vladan Kovacevic.

    Let's hope to tell you about more chances in the second-half!

  19. HALF-TIME

    Southampton 0-1 Coventry

    Coventry goalscorer Ephron Mason-Clark celebratesShutterstock

    Pretty even stuff but Coventry came on strong towards the end of the half and have their noses in front thanks to Ephron Mason-Clark's header two minutes before the break.

    Josh Eccles in particular was superbly denied by Gavin Bazunu while the Southampton goalkeeper also saved from Jack Rudoni before Mason-Clark broke the deadlock.

    Southampton had the better of the opening exchanges with Adam Armstrong surprisingly wasting their best chance when dragging a shot wide while Leo Scienza has forced a save out of Carl Rushworth.

    Coventry are eight points clear at the top as it stands.

  20. Preston 0-0 Norwich

    We will have two additional minutes at the end of the first half.
