Lincoln City could be promoted and Peterborough United could be 18th after the Easter Monday matches

A point for Lincoln City at Reading on Easter Monday would secure promotion for ‘The Imps’ with five games to spare.

If Bolton Wanderers don’t beat Stockport County that would also promote Lincoln regardless of their result at Reading.

At the bottom end of the League One table the key game is Exeter City at home to Doncaster Rovers. ‘The Grecians’ are three points from safety having played more games than most so a win is imperative for their survival hopes.

If Exeter win and Posh lose at home to second-placed Cardiff City, the gap to the relegation zone for Luke Williams’ side would be down to four points. Posh do have two games in hand though.

Posh are currently 14th and could drop to 18th if results go against them. Posh could move back up to 12th win a shock win against Cardiff.
