by Daniel Ngulu in League One Predictions
Reading will be eyeing another big leap in League One when they welcome Burton Albion in their next game. The Royals start this game ranked 15th, seven spots ahead of the Brewers. Read on for our prediction of this match.
Playing their second straight home match works well for Reading, who have enjoyed life in Berkshire. They are coming from a 2-1 win against Huddersfield Town. Benjamin Elliot scored his second goal in as many matches, to bank three points for Reading.
That found Harvey Knibbs having leveled the match nine minutes after falling behind. In terms of their attack, they scored twice in three of the last four and will be confident here. Reading have one loss and six wins in eight League One home matches.
Burton Albion may have avoided defeats against Reading in both their encounters last season, but will not go into this one as favorites. In the corresponding fixture these teams played to a 0-0 draw then Burton Albion won 3-2 at home.
Before that, Reading had won four of five fixtures against Burton Albion. To this game, Burton carries a very poor run, having won none of their last five matches.
They are actually coming from three straight defeats, and in their last four matches, they conceded two or more goals. Meanwhile, Burton failed to score in three of five away League One matches and are winless in eight league games on the road.
