Then Cameron Burgess makes a big block as Anis Mehmeti threatens a second. It would be a long way back from two down for the Swans. Sheff Wed 0-1 Southampton I mentioned relegated Sheffield Wednesday's goalscoring troubles this season earlier on. Heading towards the break at Hillsborough they are still to have a shot on target. Charlton 0-1 Wrexham Chris Wathan BBC Sport Wales Nathan Jones had been particularly jumpy on the touchline having seen Harry Clarke get his angles completely wrong in the Wrexham box and skew a chance that seemed difficult to miss. A minute later he's in his seat wondering what on earth just happened. Give credit to Ollie Rathbone, though, that was delicious. A little flick and a volley finish to celebrate the new contract he signed five days ago. Preston 0-1 Millwall That is Ryan Leonard's third goal of this season, but his first in the Championship since October 2020. When players like Leonard are stepping up, it's easy to see why Millwall think something special is stirring in SE16. Oxford 2-1 West Brom Tony 'Bomber' Brown West Brom's all-time leading goalscorer on BBC Radio WM If you don't by a ticket, you won't win the raffle. The shot was speculative, but it has gone in and that is a life line for West Brom. The goal has really quietened down the home fans. Tyrese Campbell (33) Game over? That's Tyrese Campbell's first goal since November, a run of 17 appearances, firing past Joe Walsh and into the bottom corner from a pass from Sydie Peck. Ollie Bostock (33 mins) Game on? It's the teenage sub and it's his first senior goal. Ollie Bostock gets the ball a few yards outside the area and fizzes in a powerful effort which is destined for the bottom left corner before clipping a defender and deflecting past Jamie Cumming in the U's goal. A ray of sunshine for the travelling faithful. Ollie Rathbone (30 mins) Against the run of play. .. but the Red Dragons are roaring. Harry Clarke had fired wide of target with only keeper Arthur Okonkwo to beat moments before, however Wrexham fly down the pitch and Callum Doyle's cross is cleared only to Ollie Rathbone who takes a fine first touch before rifling past Will Mannion to send the travelling fans wild. Nathan Jones, however, has a face like thunder. His side were well on top. Ryan Leonard (29 mins) No-one likes them, but Millwall are winning! Few surprises that a set-piece is at the heart of the Lions' success as the ball is only cleared as far as Ryan Leonard and he finds the net with a first time shot. Millwall on course for three straight wins on the road. Oxford 2-0 West Brom Tony 'Bomber' Brown West Brom's all-time leading goalscorer on BBC Radio WM There are a few West Brom fans heading down towards the exit, already. I'm not sure if they are going for a pint or leaving - desperate times call for desperate measures. Preston 0-0 Millwall Millwall hit the post at one end, but Preston's Daniel Jebbison will feel that he could have put Preston ahead. Andrija Vukcevic with the ball in and Jebbison puts his header just wide of the near post. Coventry 1-0 Stoke Looks like being a busy day for Potters keeper Tommy Simkin. He makes a smart low save from Brentford loanee Frank Onyeka. Sheff Wed 0-1 Southampton For an illustration of how much of a job Sheffield Wednesday have in getting back into this game, they've scored twice this calendar year. Will Lankshear (26 mins) Wow. Oxford goals are like London buses. None for two months. Two in 12 minutes. And another from a set-piece. Cameron Brannagan swings in a free-kick which unmarked Tottenham loanee Will Lankshear meets with a downward header which Max O'Leary can't claw out. Matt Bloomfield is in dreamland but things are starting to turn ugly in the away end, they are not at all happy with this showing and are letting certain players hear about it. Charlton 0-0 Wrexham A glimpse of goal for the Addicks as the ball drops to Luke Berry in the six-yard box but he is denied by a wonderful block by Issa Kabore. Charlton growing into the game and Sonny Carey has also been denied by a timely George Dobson challenge. Charlton 0-0 Wrexham Chris Wathan BBC Sport Wales It's taken an age but this game has just sparked into life - and it's difficult to tell if the Charlton fans are encouraged or annoyed that their side aren't ahead. It's been all Wrexham in terms of possession but two big counters from the hosts, two huge chances inside the box, and then two vital blocks from scrambling defenders. It's getting a touch physical too. Things are simmering nicely. Coventry 1-0 Stoke A fourth successive win for Coventry today would see them really cement their place at the top of this league. That three-match winless run is feeling like a long time ago now. Preston 0-0 Millwall So close to an opening goal for the visitors! Josh Coburn's header comes back off the post with Preston goalkeeper David Cornell grateful to get on the loose ball. Oxford United 1-0 West Brom Another blow for James Morrison as Mikey Johnston is forced off after a bright opening with what looks like a recurrence of his groin problem. 19-year-old winger Ollie Bostock gets a huge ovation from the sold out away end as he joins the fray. Coventry 1-0 Stoke Shooting practice for Coventry today. This will be a painful watch for Stoke fans. This'll be a cricket score.
