Jonathan Hogg, Toffolo and Sinani were all withdrawn before the hour mark as Corberan switched his attention to their play-off endeavours. An influential Danel Sinani shrugged off the challenge of veteran defender Timm Klose before firing low to Bentley’s left, but the keeper did well to save. Harry Toffolo opened the scoring after a smart solo run with Danny Ward doubling the hosts’ lead.

All the build-up, live match action and reaction as Bristol City aim to extend their unbeaten run and end the season in style.

Frustration and poor quality as Scott finds room to have a speculative effort from range but it rises and never comes down. It could be three as Ward gets acres of space down the left. James' effort is the last touch of the season. Eiting perhaps harshly goes into the book. First one of the half falls to Sinani who outmuscles Klose to win the ball on the edge of the box. He just has Bentley to beat on the angle but the skipper reads it and does well to keep it out. Close! Semenyo's long throw causes havoc in the box and it lands to the feet of Klose who tries to curl it into the far corner. He's sat down to the left of the dugout and is having his left knee strapped with ice. The centreback does go down whilst Huddersfield have the ball and it's put out of play for the sub to be made. Nice bit of back to front from Sarr to send Pipa up against Tanner. The Englishman stands up his man and defends it well for a corner which is easily cleared. Atkinson then clatters into Blackman for a high ball but the keeper takes it well and City still look no closer to getting anything out of this game. It bounces around for a bit on the edge of the box before the home side win a corner and City can clear it.

City ended the season with a defeat to Huddersfield Town at the John Smith's Stadium courtesy of two first-half goals.

It was a dominant performance from Huddersfield Town, who comfortably saw off The Robins ahead of their play-off campaign.

As for Nigel Pearson's Bristol City, it was a disappointing way to end the season. It was a promising performance from the hosts ahead of their playoff campaign, as The Terriers look to return to the Premier League after their relegation in 2019. Naby Sarr's defensive header back to his goalkeeper was weak, but Jamal Blackman was just about able to claim the ball as Semenyo looked to get a goal back for Pearson's side. The Huddersfield defender looked nervous soon after as his touch under pressure was poor, but he was able to recover it just in time. Timm Klose fired a shot just over the bar as The Robins looked to get a goal back in West Yorkshire. Danel Sinani had a chance to put the ball in the box after finding himself in space on the left, but his cross was blocked. Massengo tried to shimmy his way into the box, but his run towards goal was halted and sent behind for a corner that came to nothing. They had the goal they were after in the 43rd minute, as Holmes crossed to Ward, who just about managed to get the ball over the line to make it 2-0. There was a goalmouth scramble from the corner that followed, but it was cleared in the end by a Robins player. Chris Martin had the first major chance of the game, as Semenyo cut the ball back to him, but his shot from the edge of the box was deflected wide. Semenyo then had a chance to give Bristol City the lead, but he failed to bring the ball under control. It was a disappointing afternoon for Bristol City, who really struggled to contain the hosts in wide areas.
