City will look to make it four league games unbeaten when they travel to face Reading on Friday 18 April (3pm KO).
Read the pre-match thoughts of head coach Michael Skubala and defender Tom Hamer ahead of the Sky Bet League One clash and get up to speed with all the key match information in our preview.
Michael Skubala:
"The next four games are against teams with a big prize to play for, so it will be a really good challenge for us and one we're looking forward to taking on.
"Our focus isn't solely on next season, we want to 'spoil' the party as well and giving the players the chance to perform against some really strong sides will be a good test for us all.
"Noel Hunt has done an excellent job at Reading, he inherited a really good group who have had an amazing season. We performed very well in the home fixture earlier in the campaign and we want to produce another good performance against them on Friday."

Tom Hamer:
“We go into every game wanting to win and we really want to show everyone how good we can be. There’s still plenty for us to play for and we’ll prove that by giving our all.
“The gaffer has been looking to implement a few different things ahead of the new season and I’ve enjoyed having the opportunity to play in a back four and I think I’ve done well there.
“We’re going out to show what we can do and prove that we can compete with the best teams in the division. I think we’ve done that in recent matches, and we want to do the same here.”
