Hull City must wait to secure promotion to the Premier League after Watford beat Blackburn Rovers 4-0 to stay in the battle for automatic promotion.
The Tigers would have gone up today if Watford had lost and Crystal Palace had failed to win.
But The Hornets kept their nerve to cut the Tigers' lead to four points.
Gianfranco Zola's team must now take at least a point at Leicester on Friday to keep the race alive. City would then have to win at Barnsley on Saturday to guarantee a return to the top flight.
Crystal Palace's 2-2 draw at home to Leicester means their slim hopes of catching the Tigers have now gone.Viewing on mobile? Click here to see content.
