Burton Albion and Championship news LIVE

There's rarely a moment to catch your breath in the Championship - and less than 48 hours after Burton Albion's 1-1 draw with Wolves, we're building up to tomorrow's trip to Fulham. The Brewers made it four games unbeaten in the league thanks to Will Miller's 94th-minute equaliser at Molineux on Saturday after they had produced another impressive performance against one of the division's big spenders. Nigel Clough's side's attentions will now quickly turn to Tuesday's trip to Craven Cottage, where they will face a Fulham team who suffered their first defeat of the campaign against Birmingham City at the weekend. We'll be reflecting on the Wolves draw and previewing tomorrow's clash with the Whites throughout the day, hearing from Nigel Clough, Will Miller and Jamie Ward among others - as well as keeping you abreast of all the other goings-on across the second tier.

Recap: Wolves 1-1 Burton Albion

So after 15 days away, Championship football is back for Burton Albion as they travel to face Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux (3pm). Nigel Clough's side have taken seven points from the last nine available to them as they've provided themselves with a solid base in their debut second-tier campaign - and the challenge now is to see if they can build on that. That will not be an easy task this afternoon, with Walter Zenga's Wolves - one of the big spenders in the Championship transfer market - having shown some good form early on with wins over Reading and Birmingham City. They lost last time out to league leaders Huddersfield Town, and talk from the Wolves camp has been about getting back to the performance levels they showed in those wins. We'll have all the build-up and team news from Molineux as Albion return to action, before bringing you all the key moments from the game in our live text commentary. Stick with SportMail throughout the day.

Recap: Burton Albion 1-0 Derby County

As historic days go in Burton Albion's first ever Championship season, this might just be the biggest of the lot - Derby County at the Pirelli Stadium. For the first time since the Brewers' inception in 1950, the two clubs - separated by just a few miles of the A38 - are set to meet in a competitive fixture, with the Rams visiting the Pirelli Stadium tonight (7.45pm) in front of the Sky Sports cameras. Albion and Derby have endured markedly different starts to the 2016/17 season, even if they sit just a point apart in the table after four games. While Nigel Clough's Brewers have scored nine and conceded nine in amassing four points from a victory over Sheffield Wednesday and a draw at Blackburn Rovers last weekend - they also suffered odd-goal defeats to Nottingham Forest and Bristol City - the Rams have found the net just once so far, but sit on five points, having conceded just twice in a 2-0 defeat at Barnsley. There are so many intriguing sub-plots to tonight's clash - Clough pitting his Albion side against his former employers, several Brewers stars facing off against the club they once played for - and it is set to be a memorable night. We'll bring you all the build-up to the clash throughout the day and the team news, before providing live text commentary of the game.

Burton Albion and Championship news LIVE - reaction to Liverpool defeat

Burton Albion may have seen their EFL Cup journey ended at the second round - but what a masterful display by Liverpool it was at the Pirelli Stadium. The Brewers were beaten 5-0 thanks to a second-half Daniel Sturridge double, plus goals from Divock Origi and Roberto Firmino and Tom Naylor's unfortunate own goal. The goalscorers alone tell of the quality Jurgen Klopp put out onto the field for the Reds, while Albion boasted five changes from Saturday's draw with Blackburn Rovers as they prepare for an historic clash with Derby County on Friday. We'll take a look back at last night's action, hear from Brewers boss Clough and midfielder Matt Palmer during this morning's press conference and begin looking ahead to the Rams visit, while also keeping you up to date with all the other goings on in the Championship.
