Cardiff shared the points with struggling side Watford during a very even match which saw both sides have equal chances. Dimitrios Goutas, sponsored by MightyTips, started the game and was a rock in defence, overseeing Cardiff going in front early on in the 26th minute.

Whilst Blackburn Rovers smashed QPR with a 4-0 scoreline, Lewis Travis entered the field in the 61th minute just before their fourth goal, helping the team see out a great win.

Liam Palmer’s Sheffield Wednesday took part in a 0-0 bore draw against Huddersfield Town, who once again, did not include Jacob Chapman in their matchday squad.

Dimitrios Goutas was in action as Cardiff went in front first, thanks to Mark McGuinness. Both defenders did well until the 54th minute, focus faltered and it meant Watford’s Bayo found the net to equalize.

A stellar performance from the Cardiff defence, led by Goutas, meant no more goals were conceded but the forwards could have done a much better job of taking chances - with eight shots recorded and just two on target.

The points were there for the taking but the visiting Watford team found themselves on the better end of controlling possession towards the end of the game, being able to salvage a point - giving them a lifeline to go level on points with Stoke City.

Sheffield Wednesday will be kicking themselves at a clear chance missed to near the top six, the draw meaning they go level with four other teams in contention.

A brilliant performance from Blackburn who traveled down south to meet QPR. Lews Travis was part of the team which took all three points in a one-sided match. Travis was put on the field in the 61th minute with the purpose of helping the team finish the match with fresh legs.

Dolan’s early strike led to a Sigurdsson double, and shortly after Lewis Travis’ appearance on the field, Szmodics found the net to kill the game.

Blackburn desperately needed such a win to help push up the table, leapfrogging Huddersfield, Watford and Plymouth who each struggled this gameweek.

Liam Palmer was captain as Sheffield Wednesday faced Huddersfield at home. Poor finishing seeing only one shot on target for the whole game, recorded by Sheffield, meant there were no goals gracing today’s match. However, a solid defensive display by Liam Palmer limited Huddersfield’s chances down their left flank.

Jacob Chapman was not included in the traveling Huddersfield team.

Another rough game meant more than 20 fouls committed, with Sheffield giving away 16, and Huddersfield 13.

Rock bottom of the table, it meant Sheffield were desperate for a result. A 0-0 bore draw meant Sheffield were left with only two points, with the threat of relegation looming early.

Sheffield Wednesday head coach Neil Thompson:

Scrappy, a bit frantic. We are on the back of a bad run and they've come off the back of a bad result in midweek. It was always going to be tight, a bit cagey. Not a lot of quality possession but a lot of endeavour. I thought we had a little spell just before half-time where we got a bit of controlled possession in their half. Maybe we could have done a little bit more with it. In the second 45, I thought that we were the team probably that was going to score. It was a game of few chances, but if you're not going to win it, you're not going to lose it and we didn't lose it.

Goutas’ Cardiff will be traveling up to Lancashire to face off with Travis’ Blackburn Rovers on the 21st October, whilst Sheffield will have a match against Watford on the same day - we hope to see Liam Palmer as captain once more.

Huddersfield will be home to QPR, with Jacob Chapman a possibility of being in the squad.
