- 0' Three points are at stake. Millwall FC host Watford FC — let the battle begin!
- 1' It’s a booking for Watford FC player. Edo Kayembe gets a card.

- 8' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Vakoun Issouf Bayo suffering a number of foals already.
