Check out our match prediction for the FA Cup First Round tie at the Select Car Leasing Stadium on Saturday. Reading of League One host League Two Fleetwood Town for a place in the second round. Will the Royals have too much class for the Cod Army, or could the Fishermen stun their hosts and land a prize catch victory?
Ruben Selles has seen a marked improvement from his Royals side in recent weeks. They have been especially strong at home, winning six of their seven home games this season However, they have slipped up at times too, especially on the road.
That was evident this past weekend when the Royals were beaten 4-1 by Stockport County on the road. That defeat came after an excellent 2-1 win at Exeter City and then a 1-0 home win over Bristol Rovers.
One positive for Fleetwood Town is that their away record is markedly better than their home in League Two. They have picked up 11 of their 18 points on the road, but have failed to win either of their last two away games.
In fact, the Cod Army has not win any of their last five games, drawing three and losing two. They held Newport to a 0-0 draw in midweek last week before battling to a 2-2 draw with Salford City at the weekend.

Our Reading vs Fleetwood Town Prediction
Our prediction for the Reading vs. Fleetwood Town FA Cup First Round tie is: Reading to win.
Ninth in League One takes on 15th in League Two in this tie, which gives you an idea of the task that faces Fleetwood Town here. The Fishermen have had some decent away wins, but not against teams of the calibre of Reading. The Royals are in generally good form at present, especially at home, and it would be a big shock if they were not to progress from this tie.
