HT: Wigan 0-2 Birmingham Richard Wilford BBC Radio WM commentator A first half in which two runs forward from Ethan Laird has led to two Alfie May goals, really impressive from the pair of them. Wigan have hit the post and looked very bright but it is Birmingham who have taken their chances and are in front. Doncaster 0-1 Port Vale Doncaster had the better of things with Billy Sharp and Luke Molyneux coming close to scoring but Port Vale have taken full advantage and lead at the break thanks to Ryan Croasdale's strike to score his third of the season. Huddersfield 0-0 Rotherham Goalless at the interval. Huddersfield have dominated proceedings but haven't been able to stick the ball in the back of the net. The Terriers' best two chances came in quick succession when Ben Wiles almost scored from a corner and Michal Helik then saw his header cleared off the line by Rotherham's Shaun Mc Williams. Wigan 0-2 Birmingham So far, so good for title-chasing Birmingham City. Wigan have had plenty of efforts on goal, getting 11 shots away but Birmingham - and Alfie May in particular - have been ruthless. Two shots, two goals for Blues and May. A long way back for the Latics in the second half. Wycombe 1-0 Blackpool Wycombe are ahead at the break and staying top of League One as things stand. Richard Kone's goal from the penalty spot is the difference between the two sides. Blackpool saw two efforts from Lee Evans go close, while Rob Apter also headed wide. But it's the Chairboys who have their noses in front after Kone was brought down in the area by Matthew Pennington after Odel Offiah's poor backpass and made no mistake from 12 yards. Wrexham 0-0 Peterborough A relatively tame affair in North Wales thus far. #bbcefl Mansfield Town have retaken the lead against Stockport through Will Evans, thanks to Hiram Boateng's clinically threaded through ball. 2-1 to the Stags. Huddersfield 0-0 Rotherham Huddersfield must be wondering how this game is still level. Ben Wiles almost scores directly from a corner, but Rotherham keeper Dillon Phillips tips it over. Michal Helik then powers in a header from another corner but it's cleared off the line brilliantly by Shaun Mc Williams. #bbcefl Hakeeb Adelakun has put in-form Salford ahead at MK Dons. Tranmere still have a 1-0 lead against Carlisle in the big game at the bottom of the League Two table. Accrington are also leading Colchester by the same score line. And Barrow v Harrogate is 0-0. Wrexham 0-0 Peterborough Wrexham captain Paul Mullin is fouled by Emmanuel Fernandez and the Posh defender is the first name added to the naughty book. Richard Kone pen (40 mins) Breakthrough at Adams Park! Richard Kone is brought down in the box by Blackpool's Matthew Pennington following a poor backpass by Odel Offiah. The ref points to the spot and the Chairboys' top goalscorer dusts himself down to convert from the spot for his 13th of the season. Wigan 0-2 Birmingham Wigan are giving as good as they get in this game. It opens up for Toby Sibbick and he hits one from distance but it flies over the bar. That's the 11th shot of the game for the Latics but no joy. Birmingham have been ruthless, converting both their shots in the game so far into goals. Wrexham 0-0 Peterborough Paul Mullin is donning the captain's armband in the absence of the benched James Mc Clean and he's making his presence known. He wins a free-kick just outside the penalty area but his attempt at a direct shot fizzes above the bar. Huddersfield 0-0 Rotherham Herbie Kane takes on an ambitious effort from distance for Huddersfield, connecting well with a volley but it goes over. Moments later, Ben Wiles hits an effort on target but Rotherham keeper Dillon Phillips parries it away. Wigan 0-2 Birmingham Wigan almost find an instant response to going two behind! Michael Olakigbe fires in a low effort but it cannons back off the post. Wrexham 0-0 Peterborough It's becoming end to end at the Stok Racecourse. A counter-attack falls to Chris Conn-Clarke but his strike finds itself in the arms of the Wrexham keeper. Then the ball makes its way up the other end for Paul Mullin to take a chance but his whizzes way off target. Ryan Croasdale (33 mins) Port Vale break the deadlock! Antwoine Hackford sets up Ryan Croasdale who finds the back of the net with a lovely low strike inside the box to give Darren Moore's side the lead.
