Wells opened the scoring in the 29th minute with a shot from just outside the box for his eighth of the season.

Reading equalised two minutes later through George Puscas before QPR regained the lead in the 58th minute when Jordan Hugill collected a headed pass from Wells to score with a shot from outside the area.

QPR moved up to fourth in the table, three points behind leaders West Bromwich Albion, who came from 2-0 down to draw away to Barnsley.

Smith came on as a 71st minute substitute for Luke Varney, who opened the scoring in the 45th minute.

The Bermudian set up Ryan Broom to score Cheltenham’s third goal and secure a win that moves them two points behind leaders Crewe Alexander, who drew 0-0 with Colchester. Cheltenham are second in the table.
