    Burnley 1-1 Notts County

    Far from convincing by Burnley as they give the ball away deep inside their own half again.

    Notts County eventually then force a corner on the left but it comes to nothing.

  2. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:54 BST 8 August

    Sheff Wed 1-0 Bolton

    Yan Valery is hurting.

    He needs to be replaced by his Sheffield Wednesday team-mate Liam Palmer.

    After an immense winless streak last season ended with a home win against West Brom on the last day of the Championship season, it looks like they are going to back it up here today.

  3. goal

    GOAL: Preston 1-1 Huddersfieldpublished at 16:54 BST 8 August

    Jusef Erabi (90+3mins)

    WELL, HELLO!

    It is a late, late, late equaliser by the debutant Jusef Erabi!

  4. FULL-TIMEpublished at 16:53 BST 8 August

    Derby 1-2 Lincoln

    An excellent win to start the new season for Lincoln City as they dump Derby out of the EFL Cup and progress to the second round.

    If that's a dress rehearsal of what's to come in the Championship this season for the Imps, they will be mightily pleased.

    Ben House's deflected header and Dom Jefferies' slotted finish did the damage early on to put Lincoln 2-0 up.

    A disappointing afternoon for John Eustace's side, who fall short despite an excellent long range volley by Sam Szmodics.

  5. INJURY TIMEpublished at 16:53 BST 8 August

    Preston 0-1 Huddersfield

    Four minutes added on at Goodison Park.

    Lasse Sorensen has just been booked for Huddersfield.

  6. INJURY TIMEpublished at 16:52 BST 8 August

    Leicester 1-0 Northampton

    The fourth official signals for an additional eight minutes of added on time.

    That's more than two hydration breaks.

    Plenty of time for drama!

  7. 'More chances yet'published at 16:51 BST 8 August

    Leicester 1-0 Northampton

    Matt Piper
    Former Foxes winger on BBC Radio Leicester

    There is eight minutes of added time! Russell Martin might be a bit nervous about that.

    It is only 1-0 and Northampton have had chances in this second half. I am sure there will be a few more chances yet.

  8. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:51 BST 8 August

    West Ham 3-1 Portsmouth

    West Ham's only summer signing is on for his debut.

    Joel Veltman comes on to replace the excellent Valentin Castellanos. Two goals to his name today.

    Job well done, Taty.

  9. Postpublished at 16:51 BST 8 August

    Leicester 1-0 Northampton

    Jakub Stolarczyk gets down low to stop Northampton's Joe Wormleighton from grabbing a late equaliser.

    Is that the last chance of the match for the Cobblers?

    Surely not...

  10. INJURY TIMEpublished at 16:50 BST 8 August

    Burnley 1-1 Notts County

    Six minutes added on at Turf Moor. Can Notts County cling on to force penalties?

  11. Postpublished at 16:49 BST 8 August

    Preston 0-1 Huddersfield

    Huddersfield keeper Matty Young makes a fine save to keep Jusef Erabi from scoring on his debut.

    Into the final moments of the game now.

  12. INJURY TIMEpublished at 16:49 BST 8 August

    Derby 1-2 Lincoln

    Derby have got four minutes of stoppage time to find an equaliser.

    Lincoln have got four minutes to hold on to book their spot in the EFL Cup second round.

  13. goal

    GOAL: Burton 1-2 Blackburnpublished at 16:46 BST 8 August

    Jayden Fevrier (88 mins)

    Rovers have turned things around!

    This one is an absolute beauty. Jayden Fevrier, on his Blackburn debut, cuts inside from the right-hand side and curls in an absolute beauty with his left foot.

    A superb way to get your new fans on side! Tony Mowbray's men are minutes away from the second round.

  14. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:45 BST 8 August

    West Ham 3-1 Portsmouth

    Pompey's John Swift is on for Colby Bishop.

    A Portsmouth goal could make the end of this match interesting...

  15. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:45 BST 8 August

    Preston 0-1 Huddersfield

    It's another substitution for Huddersfield, who bring on their latest signing Ibane Bowat for Sean Roughan.

    Bowat joined the Terriers on Wednesday from Portsmouth on a three-year deal.

  16. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 16:45 BST 8 August

    Burnley 1-1 Notts County

    Notts County have the ball in the net but it's not going to stand.

    Emile Acquah races in behind and pulls it back for Darius Lipsiuc to tap home but the flag is up against Acquah for offside.

  17. 'Foxes are playing fast and loose'published at 16:42 BST 8 August

    Leicester 1-0 Northampton

    Tim Oglethorpe
    BBC Radio Northampton commentator

    The Leicester fans are not happy about this.

    The Foxes are playing fast and loose at the back, and they are offering up chances for The Cobblers.

    It has suddenly got very heated inside the King Power!

  18. 'Hammers need someone alongside Kante'published at 16:42 BST 8 August

    West Ham 3-1 Portsmouth

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

    I like Kante, making that goal says a lot for me, but they need someone to play in there with him. Someone creative who's looking for the ball all the time.

    The game now is virtually going away from Pompey who need to get that second goal which would change things.

  19. CLOSE!published at 16:42 BST 8 August

    Burnley 1-1 Notts County

    Blimey, Notts County almost nick it.

    It's a poor giveaway in their own half by Burnley and Maziar Kouhyar races forward before fizzing an effort narrowly wide of the post from the edge of the area.

    That was almighty close for the Magpies.

  20. Postpublished at 16:41 BST 8 August

    Leicester 1-0 Northampton

    If Leicester manage to win this one it'll be only their fourth competitive win of 2026.

    That is quite a stat.
