    Leicester 1-0 Northampton

    Luke Thomas creates the space for Leicester and drives the ball across the six yard box, but Bobby De Cordova-Reid just isn't fast enough to get there.

    West Ham 2-1 Portsmouth

    A few ooh's as some clever footwork from West Ham ends up at Valentin Castellanos' feet in the box but an excellently timed block from Terry Devlin saves a third goal.

    Excellent stuff from the Northern Ireland international.

  3. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:11 BST 8 August

    Preston 0-1 Huddersfield

    There's a change for each side as Preston bring on Liam Lindsay to replace Andrija Vukcevic, and Huddersfield swap Lynden Gooch for Bali Mumba.

    Derby 1-2 Lincoln

    Ben House is played in on the right of the area for Lincoln and thunders an effort narrowly wide of the mark.

    It crashes into the side-netting and for just a split second, it looked like it had flown in.

    Moments later, Adam Reach almost bundles in at the far post but his effort from close range is blocked and goes behind.

    Good start to the second 45 by the Imps.

  5. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:10 BST 8 August

    Watford 0-0 Crawley

    Watford make the first change of this tie, taking off Kwadwo Baah for Amin Nabizada.

  6. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:08 BST 8 August

    Swansea 0-1 Birmingham

    Looks like Birmingham's Alex Cochrane has picked up a knock so Lee Buchanan is on for the second half.

    GOAL: Burnley 1-1 Notts Countypublished at 16:07 BST 8 August

    Zian Flemming (48 mins)

    Burnley haven't taken long to draw level in this second half...

    Marcus Edwards clips a clever ball through for Zian Flemming, who takes an excellent first touch to bring it under control before clipping a deft dink over James Belshaw in the Notts County goal.

    It rolls into the far corner and we're all square again at Turf Moor.

    GOAL: Stoke 1-0 Oldhampublished at 16:07 BST 8 August

    Ollie Norburn own goal (48 mins)

    Stoke hit the front early in the second half!

    It's a wicked corner from the left-hand side by Sorba Thomas, whipping the ball into the middle, and the unfortunate Ollie Norburn accidentally heads the ball into his own net.

    Replays suggest Norburn is slightly unlucky here as a team-mate runs in front of his line of sight just as he goes to head the ball away.

    Stoke won't care about that though.

    Jack Rafferty

    I was worried it might be a bit cooler today, and was considering maybe even a jumper!

    I can confirm it is glorious sunshine here in Leicester, and you can see why they need the hydration breaks.

    We are starting to get back under way in our 3pm games.

    There's a few upsets on the cards as it stands...

    West Ham majority shareholder David Sullivan is in the stands to watch his side take on Portsmouth this afternoon.

    The 77-year-old had been advised to steer clear of the grounds after an investigation by BBC Panorama and The Times revealed seven women have accused Sullivan of sexually exploitative and predatory behaviour.

    Sullivan, who resigned from his position as co-chair following the accusations, categorically denies the allegations.

    FT: QPR 1-1 Millwall - Millwall win 2-0 on penalties

    Millwall are into the second round of the EFL Cup!

    QPR goalkeeper Pierce Charles makes a fine stop to deny Tairyk Arconte but Lukas Jensen pulls off a FOURTH save of the shootout to keep out Kwame Poku.

    And that is that. The Lions win 2-0 on penalties.

    Quite astonishing from the Millwall goalkeeper.

    QPR 0-2 Millwall - penalty shootout

    Camiel Neghli's penalty is tame for Millwall and Pierce Charles gets down to save it to his right for QPR.

    Lukas Jensen with a hat-trick of saves though to deny Koki Saito! Wow!

    QPR 0-2 Millwall - penalty shootout

    Jake Cooper slots Millwall in front from the first spot-kick, sending Pierce Charles the wrong way in the QPR goal, before Ilias Chair's effort is saved by Lukas Jensen, diving to his right to deny the Hoops.

    Mark Sykes, on debut for the Lions after joining from Bristol City, then puts that late own goal out of his mind to place into the corner.

    Harvey Vale steps up for QPR's second but Jensen is equal to it once again - diving to his left to make a brilliant save.

    Guy Whittingham
    Former Portsmouth manager on BBC Radio Solent

    We all know goals change games and that's what's happened here.

    Everybody was sort of expecting that West Ham approach from the beginning. They have the quality but they haven't shown the attitude until that first goal in the 42nd minute.

  17. Blues seize the initiativepublished at 16:00 BST 8 August

    HT: Swansea 0-1 Birmingham

    Gareth Vincent
    BBC Sport Wales at the Swansea.com Stadium

    Birmingham had one of the poorest away records in the Championship last season, but they lead at the break at Swansea thanks to a late set-piece goal from August Priske.

    The goal came against the run of play, with Swansea the better side until they were undone cheaply.

    Alex Cochrane's flighted delivery sailed over Cameron Burgess and Josh Tymon, with Priske steering in after Carlos Vicente drilled the ball across the face.

    Chris Davies will be delighted to be ahead.

    EFL Cup first round

    Bradford need Bobby Pointon on. He is their main threat. Not a bad first half, I think we dominated without having too much possession. Don't need to play like we're in the Prem do we.

    HT: West Ham 2-1 Portsmouth

    Paul Parker
    Ex-QPR and Manchester United defender on BBC Radio London

    Hopefully a few of the West Ham players have woken up because this is a dress rehearsal. They'll be playing at tempo and teams will respect them, but they won't be giving an inch.

    Nuno has to have a bit of a shout and a scream because there are a few players who have not done it.

    Football's about winning but to win games you have to put performances in. They won't win many games with performances like that.
