Emil Riis piled the pressure on Steve Bruce as Preston extended West Brom's winless Sky Bet Championship run to seven games.In a lively start to the game, Riis converted Alvaro Fernandez’s seventh-minute cross to get the visitors off to the perfect start.Grady Diangana might have levelled almost immediately and Jed Wallace and Okay Yokuslu both went close before the break, and although West Brom enjoyed the better of the second half, they were unable to find a way past North End keeper Freddie Woodman as they slipped into the bottom three after a 1-0 defeat.Alan Browne and Robbie Brady both played over an hour for Preston, while Troy Parrott got the last five minutes, while the Baggies were captained by Dara O'Shea and gave Jason Molumby an hour.Ben Cabango struck eight minutes into stoppage time as Swansea came from behind to win 2-1 at Watford.Cabango made the decisive intervention on a night when a problem with the officials’ communications system saw 17 minutes of added time signalled and 21 played at the end of the game.Ismaila Sarr’s 34th-minute goal handed the Hornets the advantage at the break, but the Swans were level within seven minutes of the restart thanks to Olivier Ntcham, and Cabango took full advantage when he got his head to Republic of Ireland international Ryan Manning’s late cross.Michael Obafemi also played the full game for the Swans.Oscar Estupinan’s first goal in six games handed managerless Hull a comeback victory over Wigan.Will Keane gave the Latics the lead at the MKM Stadium, but it wasn't enough as they lost 2-1.

James McClean played the full game, while Cyrus Christie did the same for the hosts.Chuba Akpom’s first-half strike ensured caretaker Middlesbrough boss Leo Percovich’s big night
