ROUND-UP

SUNDERLAND sit bottom of the Championship after losing 1-0 to BOLTON last night. The Black Cats, who were sunk by Zach Clough’s early strike, are facing the real possibility of back-toback relegations.

BIRMINGHAM, who are also in danger of the drop, were thrashed 5-0 by

BRENTFORD at Griffin Park. Ollie Watkins, Florian Jozefzoon and Neal Maupay put the hosts 3-0 up on 50 minutes. A Marc Roberts own goal and another from Watkins puts the Bees three points off the top six. MIDDLESBROUGH beat HULL 3-1, which keeps them above Brentford in ninth. A brace from Rudy Gestede helped Boro run out comfortable victors. Lee Tomlin rescued a point for NOTTINGHAM

FOREST with a late goal to peg READING back to 1-1 and

MILLWALL beat SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY 2-1 thanks to Steve Morison’s winner.
