Frosinone and Monza had been neck and neck for the second automatic promotion spot, but today the former won 1-0 away to Juve Stabia, while the latter were defeated 3-2 at Mantova in another thriller.

This opened up a three-point gap going into the final round of the regular season, to see who goes up directly, and who enters the promotion play-offs.

It means Frosinone need only a point next week to be sure of promotion.

At the foot of the table, Reggiana are mathematically relegated to Lega Pro, with Spezia and Pescara locked together on 34 points, three adrift of Bari.

Pescara are in deep trouble after Flavio Rossi’s penalty was saved in their last-gasp 1-0 defeat away to Padova, but it’s not clear why Lorenzo Insigne didn’t step up instead.

Bari and Virtus Entella are currently in the relegation play-out places, but Empoli and Sudtirol are within reach too.
