    Sheff Wed 0-0 Plymouth

    Ronan Curtis drives one on target and Joe Lumley at full stretch makes the save.

    Will Evans goes down in the ensuing scramble but the penalty appeals are waved away in favour of a corner.

    From the set piece Evans finds the side netting when it looked easier to score.

    Salford 0-1 Northampton

    No Luke Molyneux for the Ammies today but Macauley Langstaff and Daniel Udoh is some frontline in League Two and Udoh has seen a left-footed effort from the left of the box charged down by goalscorer Elliott Moore.

    Sheff Wed 0-0 Plymouth

    A first threat from Plymouth.

    Xavier Amaechi picks the pocket of Jaden Heskey before bursting forward and playing it through for Bradley Ibrahim, but home defenders get back just in time as the Argyle forward is about to unload his shot and manage to clear the danger.

    Rochdale 0-0 York

    Dajaune Brown so close to breaking the deadlock for the hosts with a close-range header after a deep cross is nodded back across goal to him but it's cleared off the line by an instinctive header from Ryan Fallowfield.

    Dale have made the fastest start.

    Stockport 1-0 Reading

    Tim Dellor

    Stockport won't score an easier goal than that all season. The marking was all over the place.

    A shocking start for Reading. It was far too easy for the home side.

    Newport haven't won away yet this season but are 1-0 up at Crewe after a third-minute own goal by Luke Offord. Crewe, by the way, haven't won in three league games.

    That did not take long.

    Ethan Ennis gets down the right for Stockport and his cross is met by Kyle Wootton with his first effort hitting the post before rebounding back off the striker and into the net.

    Not the prettiest, but it is his 10th league goal of the season and they all count.

    Rochdale 0-0 York

    Dale's Luke Hannant latches on to a flick-on and races towards the York box but Zak Johnson makes a fine recovery challenge as Hannant cuts back to try and get a shot away.

    Stockport 0-0 Reading

    Harry Wood tries to slip the ball through to Jack Diamond for the home side and Reading goalkeeper Joel Pereira has to slide out at the home player's feet to snuff out the danger.

    A good start from Stockport who are dominating possession.

    Sheff Wed 0-0 Plymouth

    Good early possession for Sheffield Wednesday in Dave Challinor's first league game in charge of the Owls.

    Beautiful autumnal sunshine at Hillsborough as well, albeit it is proper overcoat weather.

    Now then.

    Leaders, going for a ninth straight win, against the division's lowest scorers... of course it's 1-0 to the Cobblers inside two minutes.

    Lee Evans lofts a 30-yard free-kick towards the back stick where it is nodded down for Ellott Moore to hook home high into the net.

    Just Town's 10th goal of the season, and it comes a week after they went 1-0 down inside 10 seconds in the FA Cup.

    Fast start. Salford have work to do.

    Stockport 0-0 Reading

    The Stockport side has a more familiar look about it today after Jimmy McNulty made wholesale changes for last weekend's dramatic FA Cup win over Cray Wanderers.

    The big news is goalkeeper Ollie Whatmuff dropped out of England Under-20s duty at his and the Hatters' request to answer an emergency call with Luca Ashby-Hammond suspended after his red card last Sunday

    Reading are without both Paudie O'Connor and Andy Rinomhota today with Conor Masterson and Lewis Wing returning to the starting Xl.

    Sheff Wed 0-0 Plymouth

    A big boost for Sheffield Wednesday today is the return of striker Louie Barry to take a place among the substitutes after more than two months out injured.

    Goalkeeper Joe Lumley returns with Ashley Maynard-Brewer injured in last weekend's FA Cup defeat by Oldham while Liam Cooper, Sil Swinkels and Billy Mitchell come in for the benched Liam Palmer and Ricardo Santos while Jordi Liongola is missing.

    Injuries are biting hard for Plymouth with Joe Edwards, Alex Mitchell and Bim Pepple the latest players to miss out.

    Into the side come the returning goalkeeper Murphy Cooper who sat out the Cup win over Alvechurch while Jack MacKenzie, Ronan Curtis, Alex Hartridge and Bradley Ibrahim all start.

    Stockport are three points off top spot in League One - although it would take a hefty win today over Reading to help them depose Huddersfield.

    Big day at the foot of the table with two games involving teams in the bottom seven - AFC Wimbledon v Blackpool and Wigan v Barnsley.

    Blackpool news from BBC Radio Lancashire

    AFC Wimbledon and Blackpool have been struggling - and the visitors have more problems for today's trip to south London. A sickness bug has broken out among the Seasiders squad, with BBC Radio Lancashire reporting that several first-team players have been affected.

    The Dons have not won since September and have lost four of their past six matches. Blackpool are 19th - a place below them - and arrive having won just one of their past nine in the league.

    There’s also an important game near the foot of the table, with second-from-bottom Barnsley, who are without a win in eight league games, travelling to face Wigan, who are two places above them. Either could climb out of the relegation zone with a win.

    Meanwhile, in-form MK Dons, who are 12th and have won three in a row, are at home to 15th-placed Burton.

    Sheffield Wednesday v Plymouth (15:00 GMT)

    Will the real Sheffield Wednesday please stand up.

    From a run of just one defeat from their opening nine League One games and five victories, has come a four-match winless run, a change of manager and an FA Cup exit at League Two strugglers Oldham.

    Mind you, given everything that happened last season, this is comparatively nothing for Owls fans to deal with and the appointment of promotion-specialist Dave Challinor will give cause for optimism.

    But optimism must be backed up by results and a meeting with promotion-chasing Plymouth is a difficult hurdle to negotiate.

    Argyle's poor start to last season, which had them in the relegation zone at the turn of the year, ultimately cost them a shot at promotion, albeit they went into the final day of the season with a chance to make the play-offs.

    Tom Cleverley's side have made a much better start this time around and, with only the leaders Huddersfield having a better away record in League One, will want to bring down one of their main challengers.

    "Both teams will be looking to either cement their place or burst into that top six, especially with not many teams up there playing," said Cleverley.

    "It's an important game, with their new manager having his first home game it'll be a good atmosphere and good occasion so we want to dampen that."

  18. Stockport making strides as Reading seek revivalpublished at 14:50 GMT

    Stockport v Reading (15:00 GMT)

    While Reading were beating the likes of Newcastle, Sunderland and Fulham in an ultimately unsuccessful attempt to stay in the Premier League 13 years ago, Stockport were suffering a far worse fate.

    The Hatters dropped into the National League North, the sixth tier of English football, where they would spend six seasons, even having to go part-time as finances were hit hard.

    But with football in this country, what goes down can also come up and Stockport's rise under first Jim Gannon and then Dave Challinor took them to within 90 minutes of the Championship last season while Jimmy McNulty is making a decent fist of continuing that impressive work.

    Having just brought Rochdale back into EFL, McNulty has hit the ground running at Edgeley Park with top spot a possibility with a sizeable win today.

    "It's an opportunity to play well against a good team. But we believe we are a very good team," he said before the game with Reading.

    The sixth-placed Royals have been languishing in the third tier for four seasons now, those glory days in the Premier League mere memories, not even having troubled the play-offs in the past three campaigns.

    A victory at Stockport today would be a way to raise expectations and send a message to the rest of League One that this time, they mean business.

    Struggling Colchester, second from bottom of the table and without a league win since August, desperately need to end that run at home to Gillingham, who are outside of the play-off places only on goal difference.

    Bristol Rovers have won just one of their past seven league matches - a run that has included six defeats - and will be also be looking for a much-needed victory, at home to Chesterfield.

    Meanwhile, Crewe, who are fourth, are at home to Newport, sixth-placed Grimsby travel to Swindon, Port Vale host Accrington and Oldham are at Shewsbury.
