Manchester United 1-1 Burnley, Sheffield United relegated after rout – as it happened

GOAL! Huddersfield 1-1 Birmingham (Healey 47). Rhys Healey wastes little time in drawing Huddersfield level at Kirklees. A reminder that defeat would be guasend them down … and in fact they’ll still be down with a draw because Plymouth are currently avoiding defeat, while Sheffield Wednesday are winning.

League Two half-times. As it stands, Sutton United are heading out of the Football League along with Forest Green Rovers. Barrow need a win to guarantee a play-off spot but they’re losing at home to already-promoted Mansfield. In the play-off spots right now: MK Dons, Doncaster, Crawley and Crewe.

• AFC Wimbledon 2-1 Walsall

• Accrington Stanley 1-1 Tranmere Rovers

• Barrow 0-1 Mansfield Town

• Bradford City 2-0 Newport County

• Colchester United 1-0 Crewe Alexandra

• Crawley Town 2-0 Grimsby Town

• Forest Green Rovers 0-0 Notts County

• Gillingham 0-2 Doncaster Rovers

• MK Dons 2-0 Sutton United

• Salford City 2-2 Harrogate Town

• Swindon Town 2-2 Morecambe

• Wrexham 0-1 Stockport County

Championship half-times. Huddersfield are going down to League One as things stand. Birmingham would still be in the bottom three, but they’d have a chance of escape next weekend. However, Blues can be relegated today should Huddersfield turn it around, while Sheffield Wednesday and Plymouth win and Blackburn avoid defeat.

• Blackburn Rovers 0-0 Coventry City

• Bristol City 1-0 Rotherham United

• Cardiff City 0-1 Middlesbrough

• Huddersfield 0-1 Birmingham City

• Millwall 0-0 Plymouth Argyle

• Norwich City 2-1 Swansea City

• Sheffield Wednesday 1-0 West Bromwich Albion

• Southampton 0-1 Stoke City

• Watford 0-0 Sunderland

It’s not exactly been a banner afternoon. So far.

• Fulham 0-0 Crystal Palace

• Manchester United 0-0 Burnley

• Newcastle United 1-1 Sheffield United

• Wolverhampton Wanderers 1-0 Luton Town

GOAL! Huddersfield 0-1 Birmingham (Miyoshi 45). A huge goal at the bottom of the Championship. The Terriers will be relegated if they lose, and now look. A low cross from the left finds Koji Miyoshi at the far stick. He guides a shot back across the keeper, off the inside of the left-hand post, and in.

Wolves 1-0 Luton. “Hee-chan completely undressed the unfortunate Luton centre back on that one-versus-one opening goal,” writes Mary Waltz.

A chance for Carlton Morris. He heads it straight at José Sá. Wolves counter, Hwang Hee-chan shoots, and his effort is deflected past Thomas Kaminski by Teden Mengi. The small margins.

Manchester United 0-0 Burnley. The relegation-haunted sides are giving it a good go now. Lyle Foster thinks he’s scored but Andre Onana claws his header away from danger.

Newcastle United 1-1 Sheffield United. As previously stated, the Blades don’t seem to be minded to go down without a fight. Mason Holgate hits the woodwork. So close to regaining the lead. Decent chances for Ben Brereton Diaz and Andre Brooks too. That’s a fine response to Isak’s equaliser.

Manchester United 0-0 Burnley. United have been piling up the chances, but still no breakthrough. Burnley finally show something up the other end, Wilson Odobert and Lyle Foster trying their luck from distance. Attack presumably the best form of defence.

Sheffield United had been the better side for 25 minutes. But Alexander Isak spins his way into space and soon afterwards the Toon are on terms. That’s costly for the Blades as things stand, because should Burnley hold on for a point at Old Trafford, a draw would be enough to send Chris Wilder’s side down.

Manchester United 0-0 Burnley. United getting closer. Bruno Fernandes crashes a shot from a tight angle off the frame of the goal. “Two teams playing without a defence at Old Trafford today,” writes Adam Roberts. “I’m not sure it’s a trend that will catch on.”

Wolves 0-0 Luton. A couple of chances in short order for Hwang Hee-chan. Luton had started brightly, though, as Mary Waltz, reporting from Molineux via California, reports: “There is nothing like a team facing the Sword of Damocles pressure of relegation. Ross Barkley came close to scoring with a laser shot on goal.”

GOAL! Livingston 1-0 Ross County (Anderson 12). Should the Staggies win today, they’ll send Livi down. But the home side have taken an early lead. Victory would only delay the inevitable, but it’d be something.

Fulham 0-0 Crystal Palace. A big shout for a penalty as Daniel Munoz goes over. The referee’s not interested, VAR has a look, and there’s nothing doing.

Manchester United 0-0 Burnley. It’s been a wide open start at Old Trafford with chances at both ends. David Fofana, Antony and Christian Eriksen all going close.

Well, well, well! Newcastle start slowly and with great uncertainty. Sheffield United eventually force a corner. Ollie Arblaster takes, Anel Ahmedhodžić heads home, and the Blades aren’t going down without a fight!

Newcastle United 0-0 Sheffield United. Nothing much going on at St James’ Park at the moment. Should the Toon win as expected, Sheffield United’s relegation will be confirmed today.

Before the goals start flying in, if they start flying in, here’s our regular missive from our regular tangerine-tinged correspondent Simon McMahon. “It’s party time in Dundee today after DUNDEE UNITED confirmed they will be promoted as CHAMPIONS after last night’s hard fought 0-0 draw at Airdrie. To be fair, the players looked as though they’d been partying hard for most of the week after the win over Ayr at Tannadice last Saturday all but clinched the title, but having spent four seasons in the Scottish Championship the last time we were relegated in 2016, an immediate return to the top flight is not to be sniffed at. The dream of a 10th place finish in next season’s Scottish Premier is now very much alive. I think there are some games on today, but after last night, like the great Spartacus Mills said, everything else is a footnote.”

Here we go! Matches kicking off all over the land.

FULL TIME: West Ham United 2-2 Liverpool. Jacob Steinberg was at the London Stadium this lunchtime, to witness what was surely the end of Liverpool’s title challenge. Here’s his report.

The final round of fixtures in League One are complete. Derby County are promoted as a result of their home victory over Carlisle, while Oxford and Barnsley confirm their spots in the play-offs. Barnsley only just made it through, despite conceding a 96th-minute equaliser, as Lincoln and Blackpool both failed to win. Cheltenham’s defeat at Stevenage condemns them to fourth-tier football next season.

• Barnsley 1-1 Northampton Town

• Derby County 2-0 Carlisle United

• Exeter City 1-2 Oxford United

• Fleetwood Town 3-0 Burton Albion

• Lincoln City 0-2 Portsmouth

• Peterborough United 3-3 Bolton Wanderers

• Port Vale 0-0 Cambridge United

• Reading 3-2 Blackpool

• Shrewsbury Town 1-3 Leyton Orient

• Stevenage 2-1 Cheltenham Town

• Wigan Athletic 2-0 Bristol Rovers

• Wycombe Wanderers 1-0 Charlton Athletic

It’s all over at the London Stadium, and a draw is no good for either Liverpool or West Ham. Liverpool’s slim chances of the title are all but extinguished, while West Ham are unlikely to be playing European football next season. With the jig as good as up for both of them, now’s as good a time as any to take a look at the Premier League table going into the 3pm kick-offs.

There’s some hot Premier League action going on right now. Barry Glendenning has the details of what looks like the last few minutes of Liverpool’s title challenge. It’s currently 2-2 at the London Stadium as the match heads into injury time.

Wolverhampton Wanderers make three changes from their 1-0 defeat against Bournemouth. Matt Doherty, Boubacar Traore and Matheus Cunha come in for Tommy Doyle and Pablo Sarabia, who drop to the bench, and the hamstrung Santiago Bueno.

Luton Town have lost their last two matches, against Manchester City and Brentford, 5-1. They make just one change from the latter, Daiki Hashioka replacing the injured Issa Kabore.

Newcastle United make two changes in the wake of their midweek 2-0 defeat at Crystal Palace. Lewis Hall and Tino Livramento replace Emil Krafth and Harvey Barnes, who both drop to the bench.

Sheffield United are unchanged. They name the same starting XI that began the aforementioned 4-2 defeat at Old Trafford.

Manchester United are unchanged after their 4-2 win over Sheffield United. You’d trot out the old “if it' ain’t broke …” observation, but, well, y’know. Mason Mount is back on the bench.

Burnley make just one change after their own rout of Sheffield United, a 4-1 win at Bramall Lane last weekend. David Datro Fofana takes Charlie Taylor’s spot up front; Taylor drops to the bench.

Fulham make two changes to their starting XI after the 3-1 home defeat to Liverpool. Issa Diop and Harrison Reed are in; Sasa Lukic drops to the bench while Tosin Adarabioyo – who according to reports we can now describe as “wantaway” – misses out altogether.

Crystal Palace, looking to make it four wins on the bounce, make one change, and it’s enforced. Eberechi Eze has a knee injury so Michael Olise takes his place.
