Watford seem all over the place at the moment with Stoke applying the pressure.

The visitors have had way more of the ball and plenty of chances.

The visitors have the first chance of note but returning Rovers goalkeeper Balazs Toth saves well from Camiel Neghli's close range effort.

Miles Leaburn gets the first proper sight of goal in this one and Portsmouth goalkeeper Daniel Bielica makes the save.

Leaburn was forced off in midweek with a tight hamstring but is fit to start for the Addicks today.

Lincoln's Reeco Hackett hits a free kick from his own half into the feet of Ben House.

House strikes the ball but the chance is saved by Daniel Iverson.

Then, the fourth official raises their flag.

Dear me, it could be 2-2 inside 10 minutes!

Andre Brooks' shot draws a good save from Boro goalkeeper Radek Vitek.

Well what a strike and equally matched by the save, diving to his left.

This is a very good start from the visitors and Daniel Peretz is called into action to deny Jason Knight from a corner.

Rob Dickie then heads wide from a George Tanner long throw.

The Robins have won three in a row and look like a side full of confidence.

It's an early chance for the visitors as Lamine Cisse races down the right side and crosses into Eric Bocat, who puts his shot wide.

Encouraging start for Mark Robins' side.

You can see from the weather that there's plenty of water on the pitch

Paul Heckingbottom makes two changes to his starting lineup with Liam Gibbs coming in to make his first start for Preston, and Stanley Mills returning.

He's on the bench today for Alessio Dionisi's side.

Nicky Hayen once made a living not far from Swansea, as manager of Cymru Premier side Haverfordwest County.

The Belgian is back in south west Wales hoping this might be the day that he claims a first win as Burnley boss.

Hayen has named an unchanged team for the first time since taking charge at Turf Moor in the summer, with Burnley hoping to build on an encouraging draw at Wrexham in midweek.

They face a Swansea side looking to getting back on track having slipped to a first league defeat of the season at Southampton in midweek.

The Swans have been a tough nut to crack for the most part this season, and will attempt to rediscover the miserly touch this afternoon.

Charlton have made two changes to the side held 0-0 by QPR.

Amari Bell and Sonny Carey drop to the bench and in come Millenic Alli and Dan McNamara.

There is also a place among the substitutes for striker Charlie Kelman.

Portsmouth's injury curse has struck again with no Marezi so in comes Colby Bishop.

Just the one change to the Southampton side which unseated Swansea from the top of the Championship in midweek.

Kuryu Matsuki is in for the benched Tom Fellows.

Bristol City, who have had a free week since winning at Burnley bring in George Tanner, Yu Hirakawa and Dom Ballard with Cameron Pring, Gibson Yah and Jed Wallace taking a place among the replacements.

Welcome to formsville, population Southampton and Bristol City.

Eleven points from a possible 15 since an opening day defeat by Watford have propelled Southampton already up to 13th place and, but for that four-point deduction for you know what, well, blah, blah, blah, etc, etc.

Michael Skubala's tenure at Bristol City has metamorphosed from a loss and a draw to three successive victories and the Robins are suddenly rocking.

They have not won four in a row since October 2020 but have lost only one of their past four at Southampton.

The Saints have scored 11 goals at home - the most of any Championship side so far, this all adds up to something a bit tasty.

Oh, and this is Tonda Eckert's last home game before an FA hearing into his involvement in 'Spygate' is set to take place, but that is probably not a lid we want to be taking off that can of worms at this time on a Saturday afternoon.
