The Leicester loanee headed home Will Vaulks’ free-kick for the opener at Kassam Stadium, followed by Michal Helik sealing the win for former Fox Gary Rowett’s Yellows, who climb to 17th, four points above the drop zone with one game to play.

A meeting with Swansea City awaits on the final day of the season, travelling to Wales for a 12:30pm kick-off on Saturday, where Nelson could make his 18th appearance for the club.

Staying in the second tier, Hamza Choudhury played throughout Sheffield United’s 2-0 away success at Stoke City, as the Blades warmed up for the play-offs following their third-place finish.

It’s a home fixture against Blackburn Rovers up next on Saturday for Chris Wilder’s men, with the Bangladesh midfielder in line for his 17th match at the South Yorkshire outfit when hosting the Lancashire club at Bramall Lane (12:30pm kick-off).

Will Alves’ Cardiff City were relegated to Sky Bet League 1 at the weekend following a goalless draw at home to West Bromwich Albion.

With results elsewhere not going their way, the Bluebirds were consigned to a place in the third tier, sitting five points from safety prior to travelling to Norwich City’s Carrow Road on Saturday (12:30pm kick-off).

The 19-year-old winger came on as a 71st-minute substitute at Cardiff City Stadium, his 13th Championship appearance of 2024/25.

In the Vanarama National League North, Oliver Ewing played 90 minutes of Buxton’s 2-0 victory at home to Warrington Town. Having already confirmed a spot in the sixth-tier play-offs, where they face Chester FC away on Wednesday (7:45pm kick-off), the Bucks finished the regular campaign on a high, with the former Wales youth international contributing three goals in his 17 league outings.

Wanya Marçal may feature in the Eerste Divisie this Monday evening, meanwhile, when De Graafschap travel to face VVV-Venlo. Sitting sixth in the Dutch second tier ahead of tonight’s 7pm kick-off, it’s an opportunity for the attacker to make a 10th appearance for Superboeren.
