  1. SUBSTITUTIONSpublished at 21:17 British Summer Time 21 April 2021

    Huddersfield 0-1 Barnsley

    Double change for the hosts with 20 minutes left.

    Danny Ward and Sorba Thomas come on for the Terriers, who are eight points above the relegation zone.

    Luton 0-0 Reading

    Another chance for Luton. This time an inswinging cross into the middle and substitute Harry Cornick tries to stretch his neck to guide the header but can't twist sufficiently.

    It's harmless in the end.

    Luton 0-0 Reading

    Chances at both ends.

    Ovie Ejaria whacks a shot which hits the advertising holding on the roof of the stand behind the Luton goal.

    Then, Elijah Adebayo bullies a defender to pinch the ball but the cross overruns the support in the Reading box as the Hatters yomp forward.

    Luton 0-0 Reading

    Neither side can genuinely say their final ball has been up to their highest standards tonight.

    Elijah Adebayo muscled his way toward goal but his shot skittered wide for Luton, while Reading again push down the flank but the cross just won't come.

    No Lucas Joao tonight, just wondering if his ability to drop deeper and link up the play is a loss as well as the goals. George Puscas hasn't had much of an opportunity to prove his worth yet.

    GOAL: Huddersfield 0-1 Barnsleypublished at 21:11 British Summer Time 21 April 2021

    Daryl Dike (65 mins)

    Sometimes, if you criticise a game then a goal pops up out of nowhere.

    Daryl Dike breaks the deadlock to put the play-off-chasing Tykes ahead.

    It's an overhead kick from the American six yards out to convert Carlton Morris' deflected cross from the left.

    That's Dike's ninth goal since joining Barnsley earlier this year, and the Oakwell outfit are six points ahead of seventh-placed Reading as things stand.

    Huddersfield 0-0 Barnsley

    Half an hour to go at Huddersfield, and this is really one for the purists.

    A dearth of chances.

    The Terriers have brought on youngster Scott High for Aaron Rowe.

    Birmingham 1-0 Nottm Forest

    Forest almost get a route back into the game on the back of a long punt forward by goalkeeper Brice Samba.

    Marc Roberts looped the ball up with his clearance and Forest striker Lyle Taylor brings it down in behind the Blues defence but can't get a clean shot away and the home side mop up.

    Simon Atkins: Birmingham under Bowyer are a completely different team. Remarkable change from the utter rubbish we were playing under Karanka.

    Birmingham 1-0 Nottm Forest

    James Garner has been one of the bright spots in the second part of the season for Nottingham Forest but his effort goes wide.

    Just 34 goals this season tells its own miserable story for the Reds.

  10. Postpublished at 21:02 British Summer Time 21 April 2021

    Luton 0-0 Reading

    Reading almost sell goalkeeper Rafael short with a back-pass but with Elijah Adebayo baring down on him, the clearance gets the ball away.

    Still very open and fluid this one.

  11. Postpublished at 20:59 British Summer Time 21 April 2021

    Huddersfield 0-0 Barnsley

    Terriers keeper Ryan Schofield is called into action at the end of the first half.

    He tips a header from Carlton Morris wide at his near post.

  12. Postpublished at 20:58 British Summer Time 21 April 2021

    Luton 0-0 Reading

    Lengthy stoppage down on the left hand side as Reading skipper Liam Moore is hurt.

    He'll continue but it looked a sore one.

    What a finish for Wycombe.

    The Chairboys are now six points from safety with three games of the campaign remaining.

    They still need other results to go their way, but the hope of the Great Escape remains.

    Stoke 2-3 Coventry

    Ben Wilson celebratesImage source, Rex Features

    Surely now that's Coventry safe in the Championship after a really entertaining game in the Potteries.

    The Sky Blues thrice led, the Potters twice replied. Viktor Gyokeres' goal is enough to seal the points and take Coventry 12 points clear of the drop zone.

    Marc Roberts (49 mins)

    Ivan Sanchez's corners gave Forest a problem in the first-half and they provide the opener at St Andrew's.

    Marc Roberts meets the delivery and powers it past Brice Samba.

    Blues in front and Lee Bowyer continues to work his magic.

    Who else to take the pressure penalty than Adebayo Akinfenwa?

    The experienced striker makes no mistake to slot in his first Championship goal of a varied career.

    He finds the bottom right-hand corner and it's also his first goal in more than a year.

    And with it, he gives Wycombe hope of staying up.

  17. Second halfpublished at 20:52 British Summer Time 21 April 2021

    Luton 0-0 Reading

    Neither side had the ruthless touch to take the lead in the first-half.

    There was plenty of endeavour though. I fancy we'll see something in the second-half.

  18. WYCOMBE KEEPER WINS PENALTY!published at 20:51 British Summer Time 21 April 2021

    Wycombe 1-1 Bristol City

    The hosts get a spot-kick right at the start of added time.

    Goalkeeper David Stockdale is incredibly the man who wins it.

    Up for a corner, he has a shot blocked.

    Wycombe recycle the ball and another cross is half-cleared to Stockdale on the edge of the area.

    He chests the ball down and shoots again, and his effort is handled by Kasey Palmer!

    This is a big, big moment in their season...

  19. Second halfpublished at 20:51 British Summer Time 21 April 2021

    Huddersfield 0-0 Barnsley

    Back under way in Yorkshire.

    The Terriers want to edge towards safety, while the Tykes are aiming to take another step towards securing a play-off spot.

  20. Postpublished at 20:51 British Summer Time 21 April 2021

    Wycombe 1-1 Bristol City

    Into four minutes of added time at Adams Park.

    Can the Chairboys find a late winner and extend their battle to stay in the Championship?
