Wigan and Bolton lead at the break

Henri Camara gave Wigan a 1-0 half-time lead as they looked to snap out of a five-game losing run, against Charlton at the JJB Stadium.

Camara pounced on a rebound after Lee McCulloch had hit the crossbar to open the scoring in the ninth minute.

Charlton had been looking for a second successive win after ending their own five-game losing streak with victory over Sunderland last week.

Kevin Davies’ first goal since the opening day of the season gave Bolton a 1-0 interval lead at Everton.

Davies’ looping header dropped over goalkeeper Richard Wright’s head and into the net off the post in the 32nd minute.

Papa Bouba Diop scored on the stroke of half-time to give Fulham a 1-0 lead against the run of play at home to Blackburn.

Diop caught Andy Todd out of position to strike and make Rovers rue an early headed miss from two yards by Brett Emerton.

Portsmouth’s basement battle with West Brom, where Harry Redknapp was looking for his first win as Pompey boss, was goalless at half-time.

Kick-off in West Ham’s clash with Newcastle at Upton Park was delayed by half an hour due to a traffic accident but Michael Owen wasted no time in putting the visitors ahead.

The England star struck after just five minutes when he capitalised on a ricochet off defender James Collins. An own goal from Nolberto Solano restored parity in the 20th minute.
