West Ham suffered a dramatic 1-2 defeat away to Burton, who maintained their perfect start to the Championship season. After going down to ten men, the hosts saw their chances vanish when Fer Lopez missed a stoppage-time penalty that would have salvaged a point. The result piles more pressure on the Hammers' manager following another frustrating derby encounter.

Elsewhere, Wolves finally secured their first win of the campaign with a convincing 3-1 victory over Preston North End at Deepdale. A brace from Lopez led the charge, ending a scoreless run and boosting their league standing significantly.

In other fixtures, Millwall dominated 10-man Norwich with a comfortable 3-0 triumph, powered by Tairyk Arconte’s double. Demarai Gray rescued a late spot-kick to earn Birmingham a 2-2 draw against Bristol City. Additionally, Hull City edged past former club Stoke 3-1 on Divin Mubama’s home debut. The division remains fiercely competitive as clubs chase early momentum.
