Fulham have recovered from the shock loss away at Blackpool and after beating Birmingham City, they will be at home to take on Reading in the Championship. Ahead of this game Fulham top the table with 16 points while Reading are in 18th place with seven points. The hosts have had two straight away games, lost one and won one. They have three clean sheets in five and they have scored two or more goals in four of their last five matches. Aleksandr Mitrovic scored in the 4-1 win over Birmingham, taking his tally to six goals in the league and he has scored four in their last five games. The hosts are unbeaten in three Championship matches at home, with two straight wins. In their last 10 league matches at home, Fulham have failed to score in just one.

Reading will be desperate to get three points here after their win over newly promoted side Peterborough. That was their second win in the league this season and to keep their promotion hopes alive, they’ll need a positive result here. Reading have three losses in the last five matches and have no clean sheet in the eight matches they’ve played so far this season. All their eight matches have produced over 2.5 goals and Reading have conceded two or more in six of their last eight matches. They will heavily rely on Jon Swift in attack, after the forward’s impressive run of five goals in five matches ahead of this encounter.
