Division 1's bottom two teams, Reading and Leicester City, will both go into their final match of the season with a chance of avoiding relegation after sharing a 2-2 draw at the Madejski Stadium.
Reading made a quick start and were 2-0 up after 10 minutes thanks to Deniss Rakels' close-range effort and Yakou Meite's finish into an empty net.
But Leicester were level by half-time after captain Elliott Moore (pictured above) headed in a free-kick and Hamza Choudhury converted a penalty.
