Good Friday's clash between Huddersfield Town and Reading has massive implications for both teams. Currently, the visiting Royals sit just inside the playoff spots. The Terriers poor recent form has seen them drop into the group of teams seeking to get in. As such, this is a real six-pointer for both of these teams. Who will our prediction back in this match?
Automatic promotion may be beyond both these teams, but the playoffs are still very much in play for both. Huddersfield lie 10th in the table, four points outside the playoff spots, but with a game in hand on two of the teams above them. Reading now lie sixth in the table, the final playoff spot and have 61 points from 40 games. Three points here for either team would therefore be huge.
Neither team comes into the game in great form. Huddersfield's last win was a 1-0 home win over Rotherham United. Since then they drew 0-0 away to bottom placed Port Vale, then a better 2-2 home draw with leaders Lincoln City. However, at the weekend they went down to a 3-1 defeat away to Plymouth.
Reading's recent form is also somewhat inconsistent. A 2-2 draw at home to Plymotuh was followed with a 2-1 away win over Burton Albion. The Royals were then beaten 1-0 away to Stevenage but at the weekend earned an impressive 3-0 home win over Wigan.

Our Huddersfield Town vs Reading Prediction
Our prediction for the Huddersfield Town vs. Reading League One match is: A Draw.
These two teams have similar records. Both are much stronger at home than on the road, both have suffered from inconsistent form of late and both are still very much in the playoff picture, but with six or seven games left to play, a slip up here could be fatal. As such, avoiding defeat here is key for both teams and with neither showing a real winning mentality, a draw looks the bet to back.
