Leeds v Wolves, Newcastle v Bournemouth: Premier League and more – live | Football

Key events

Where does that leave the tables? In the Premier League.

Bolton equalised in the 90+11th minute, through Amario Cozier-Duberry.

Full-time: Bolton 3-3 Huddersfield. A fightback from the Trotters but that’s still a damaging result for their automatic promotion push, surely now over.

Full-time: Portsmouth 1-0 Leicester. Pompey fans sing “we are staying up”. Leicester meanwhile, are going down, surely. Scenes of celebration at Fratton Park, and desolation among the Leicester players. They have three games to save themselves, and are requiring the favours of others, too.

Goal! Barnsley 2-2 Bradford (Farrell, 90+6) A huge goal for Cardiff, a bitter blow for the Bantams.

Full-time: Brentford 0-0 Fulham. Not a classic, though a brilliant save from Bernd Leno writes the headlines.

Full-time: Derby 1-0 Oxford. That’s a bad result for Oxford, who are relying on West Brom to lose and in the fulness of time, any points deduction headed the Baggies’ way.

Full-time: Millwall 2-0 QPR. That places the Lions in second, for now.

Huge save from Bernd Leno has just denied Brentford’s Dango Ouatarra, and that means their game with Fulham is headed for a 0-0.

Goal! Barnsley 1-2 Bradford (Roberts, 82 og): Cancel the Cardiff party. For now, at least.

Goal! Barnsley 1-1 Bradford (Powell, 73) Bradford keep their dwindling hopes alive with a goal from veteran Nick Powell. (He’s actually just 32.)

Millwall leading QPR 2-0 means they will climb to second, putting real pressure on the Sunday noon showdown between Ipswich and Middlesbrough.

AS IT STANDS

Goal! Bolton 1-3 Huddersfield (Kasumu, 66): Another big goal, with Cardiff on course, with both Bolton and Bradford losing. They need Stockport to slip up later.

Goal! Portsmouth 1-0 Leicester: A huge goal at the bottom, Ibane Bowat nodding in at the far post. Leicester are in a whole heap of mud.

In the Scottish FA Cup, into the second half, it’s 0-0 between Dunfermline and Falkirk, a game at Hampden, though not attended by Premier Sport pundit Michael Stewart, who is broadcasting from the car park, having been banned – and “indefinitely – for his criticism of officiating and Willie Collum, currently head of referee operations at the Scottish FA.

Coverage here of a game falling short of being a classic – at the moment.

From our weekend digest, Louise Taylor’s take on that huge game for Leeds.

Leeds are morphing from relegation contenders to reverse kingmakers with a key role to play in determining the identity of the teams that end up descending to the Championship. Thanks to Monday night’s fully merited 2-1 win at Manchester United – their first league victory at Old Trafford since 1981 – Daniel Farke’s 15th-placed side moved six points clear of the relegation zone with six games remaining. A win against rock-bottom Wolves at Elland Road on Saturday would lift Leeds to the virtual sanctuary of 39 points but it is just the first of four impending matches against the bottom four. With Burnley still to visit West Yorkshire and Leeds facing trips to Tottenham and then, on the final day, West Ham, Farke’s FA Cup semi-finalists will likely have a significant say in who finishes where when the top-tier music stops next month.

The former RB Leipzig and Gladbach manager will replace Andoni Iraola. That’s a tough act to follow.
