R4C4 can only be <3>

R6C4 can only be <4>

R7C4 can only be <6>

R3C4 can only be <9>

R2C3 is the only square in row 2 that can be <9>

R1C8 is the only square in row 1 that can be <9>

R3C6 is the only square in row 3 that can be <6>

R4C7 is the only square in row 4 that can be <8>

R2C9 is the only square in row 2 that can be <8>

R2C7 is the only square in row 2 that can be <1>

R5C5 is the only square in row 5 that can be <8>

R5C2 is the only square in row 5 that can be <9>

R8C3 is the only square in row 8 that can be <8>

R3C2 is the only square in row 3 that can be <8>

R7C8 is the only square in row 7 that can be <8>

R9C1 is the only square in row 9 that can be <6>

R5C3 is the only square in row 5 that can be <6>

R7C3 is the only square in column 3 that can be <1>

R7C6 is the only square in column 6 that can be <3>

R9C9 is the only square in row 9 that can be <3>

R9C5 is the only square in row 9 that can be <1>

R8C9 is the only square in row 8 that can be <1>

R3C7 is the only square in column 7 that can be <2>

Squares R1C2 and R1C9 in row 1 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <57>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the row.

R1C1 - removing <57> from <2357> leaving <23>

R1C5 - removing <7> from <237> leaving <23>

Intersection of block 9 with column 7. The value <7> only appears in one or more of squares R7C7, R8C7 and R9C7 of block 9. These squares are the ones that intersect with column 7. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of column 7 cannot contain this value.

R5C7 - removing <7> from <3457> leaving <345>

R6C7 - removing <7> from <357> leaving <35>

Intersection of block 6 with row 5. The values <47> only appears in one or more of squares R5C7, R5C8 and R5C9 of block 6. These squares are the ones that intersect with row 5. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of row 5 cannot contain these values.

R5C1 - removing <7> from <357> leaving <35>

Intersection of block 4 with column 3. The value <7> only appears in one or more of squares R4C3, R5C3 and R6C3 of block 4. These squares are the ones that intersect with column 3. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of column 3 cannot contain this value.

R3C3 - removing <7> from <357> leaving <35>

Squares R4C3, R4C6, R6C3 and R6C6 form a Type-1 Unique Rectangle on <57>.

R6C3 - removing <57> from <357> leaving <3>

R6C7 can only be <5>
