Sheffield United cut Charlton Athletic's lead at the top of League One to six points with a 2-1 victory over Preston North End.

Sheffield United are now leading the chase to catch Charlton Athletic at the top of League One following today's 2-1 win over Preston North End.

Ched Evans made up for his earlier penalty miss to score both goals for the Blades after Graham Cummins had given visiting North End a first-half lead.

Charlton's lead is down to six points following their 1-1 draw at struggling Tranmere Rovers.

A strike from Ryan Brunt looked to have handed hosting Tranmere all three points at Prenton Park, only for Michael Morrison to head Athletic level after the restart.

Sheffield Wednesday lost ground on Charlton with a 1-0 loss away at Chesterfield. Dean Morgan was the goalscorer, settling the Yorkshire derby from the penalty spot.

Goals from Dean Bowditch, Daniel Powell (2), Mathias Doumbe and Stephen Gleeson sealed a comfortable victory for MK Dons over Oldham Athletic, while a late penalty from Gary Jones gave Rochdale all three points from their home encounter with Bournemouth.

Bottom-of-the-table Wycombe Wanderers slipped a defeat away at Walsall thanks to second-half goals from Kevan Hurst and George Bowerman.

League One results: Chesterfield 1-0 Sheff Wed; Exeter 3-2 Bury; Hartlepool 3-0 Notts County; Leyton Orient 1-3 Scunthorpe; MK Dons 5-0 Oldham; Rochdale 1-0 Bournemouth; Sheff Utd 1-0 Preston; Tranmere 1-1 Charlton; Walsall 2-0 Wycombe; Yeovil 3-2 Colchester
