    Bolton 1-2 Stockport

    Not a fixture that Bolton enjoy, this one.

    They have failed to win any of their past eight league games against Stockport County (D2 L6).

    The Hatters have won each of the past three as well. Could be four in a row for the first time ever if it stays like this.

  2. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:35 BST 6 April

    Oldham 0-1 MK Dons

    MK Dons' Alex Gilbey joins Curtis Nelson in the ref's book for an attempt to bring down Kane Drummond.

    A few goals in League One as Luton have doubled their advantage at AFC Wimbledon from an Ali Al Hmadi strike making it 2-0.

    Stevenage have scored a huge goal in their play-off fight as Harvey White has put them a goal to the good against Blackpool, who are just two points above the drop.

    Bradford complete the turnaround at Wycombe, now leading 2-1 with an Aden Baldwin goal.

    Josh Magennis has scored a second for Exeter against Doncaster, to lead 2-0.

    Reading 0-1 Lincoln

    This has been a pretty uneventful half an hour in this second half.

    That will suit Lincoln right down to the ground. They're counting down the seconds to promotion now.

    Can Reading spoil the party? They need to step it up if they're going to.

  5. 'The game is a bit chaotic'published at 16:33 BST 6 April

    Notts County 2-1 Newport

    Mark Stallard
    Ex-Notts County striker on BBC Radio Nottingham

    You can hear some of the Newport fans starting to believe that they have a chance in this game.

    At half-time they wouldn't have thought they stood a chance, but the Notts' defence are all over the place at the moment.

    The game is a bit chaotic.

  6. GREAT SAVE!published at 16:33 BST 6 April

    Oldham 0-1 MK Dons

    Oldham almost with a leveller as Josh Hawkes unleashes a half-volley from distance but Craig MacGillivray pulls off a top save to deny him.

  7. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:32 BST 6 April

    Peterborough 1-1 Cardiff

    Cardiff's top goalscorer Yousef Salech returns for the first time since 24 January following injury. He's on for Omari Kellyman.

    Can Salech make an instant impact for the promotion-chasing Bluebirds?

  8. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:31 BST 6 April

    Reading 0-1 Lincoln

    Preston loanee Will Keane and Haydon Roberts are thrown on for Readon. Off go Liam Fraser and Ryan Nymabe.

  9. League Two latestpublished at 16:30 BST 6 April

    A fourth goal at Harrogate as the home side are pegged back again by Bristol Rovers after an Ellis Harrison goal to leave it all square at 2-2.

    Gillingham have doubled their lead at Accrington following Garath McCleary's strike outside the box.

    A big goal in the play-off race for Chesterfield from James Berry to lead bottom side Barrow. The Spireites are back into the top seven as it stands.

    Walsall have also dented Swindon's automatic promotion hopes as they lead 1-0 from a Jamie Jellis goal to boost their own play-off aspirations.

    Despite having one less player, Fleetwood have turned it around and equalised against Barnet with a Mark Helm penalty.

  10. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:30 BST 6 April

    Bolton 1-2 Stockport

    Josh Dacres-Cogley makes way for Stockport to be replaced by Roman Dixon.

    The former Bolton man gets a fairly warm reception as he trudges off.

  11. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:29 BST 6 April

    Reading 0-1 Lincoln

    Dom Jefferies is unable to recover from his injury and makes way for Lincoln. Goalscorer and Friday's match-winner Ryan One is also withdrawn. On come Alfie Lloyd and Deji Elerewe.

  12. Postpublished at 16:27 BST 6 April

    Peterborough 1-1 Cardiff

    Big chance for Cardiff. Cian Ashford meets Ryan Wintle's cross to the back post but can't beat the defender with his header.

    And now Alex Robertson has an effort from the edge of the area well blocked.

    The Bluebirds just trying to claw their way back into it again.

  13. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:26 BST 6 April

    Reading 0-1 Lincoln

    Reading fans are not happy with Lincoln's Dom Jefferies. The Imps man has taken an age to get off the pitch after suffering an injury.

    He eventually gets shown a yellow card for time-wasting.

    Plenty of jeers. Lincoln won't care one jot as it eats up more time.

  16. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:25 BST 6 April

    Bolton 1-2 Stockport

    What do they have left in the tank?

    Stockport are going level on points with the Trotters as things stand.

  18. 'Lincoln settling for a 1-0 win'published at 16:24 BST 6 April

    Reading 0-1 Lincoln

    Tim Dellor
    BBC Radio Berkshire commentator

    Lincoln seem to have settled for a 1-0 win here.

    I'm sure they wouldn't mind a second goal here, but they are not probing for one, and are controlling the game well.

    It feels as if Reading were to get an equaliser, Lincoln would be able to switch it back up to get a second.

  19. Postpublished at 16:24 BST 6 April

    Peterborough 1-1 Cardiff

    Will Fish with yet more good defending for Cardiff as Bolu Shofowoke fizzes a dangerous ball across the face of goal for Peterborough.

    Fish is there to get it behind for a corner. Posh on top.

  20. CLOSE!published at 16:22 BST 6 April

    Notts County 2-0 Newport

    Notts County with a chance to get their third as Conor Grant goes in and out to beat his man.

    He then gets a shot away but Jordan Wright makes the save at the near post.
