Robins to grab result against Royals

We kick off our tips for this game by backing Bristol City to win. It wasn't too long ago that Reading were catching the eye of the neutral as they say high up the Championship standings. Fast forward to now though and things have soured for the Royals to the point where they've taken just one point from 12 available and have lost three games on the spin. Bristol City meanwhile arrive here in good spirts; they've won two of their last three games and, notably, won their last match away at West Brom – a side that won at Reading just last weekend. On top of all that, three of the last five head to head games – and each of the last two – have seen Bristol City win.

Going over 2.5 goals

Our next prediction for this game sees us backing over 2.5 goals. Reading have seen three of their last five matches go over the aforementioned 2.5 goal marker with a game average of 3.2 goals. Bristol City meanwhile have gone north of the 2.5 cut off in three of their last four games having seen a total of 11 goals in that period; that puts their game average at 2.8. Each of the last two head to head clashes have gone over 2.5 goals as well. With form and the h2h history pointing ‘over' we think this is a good value wager.

Can Royals arrest slide?

What a horrid few weeks it has been for Reading. Things were going so well a few weeks ago but a run of defeats has seen them plummet into midtable where they're now just a point ahead of their visitors. Admittedly, the Robins have played a game more but, even so, both sides now find themselves in a position where a bit of momentum could transform their season – for better or worse!

Reading's form isn't very good right now and nor is their injury situation. They currently have five players missing including the likes of Sam Hutchinson, Scott Dann and Liam Moore. The sooner they're back, the better but they'll need to go without them here.

Reading Predicted lineup – Lumley, Yiadom, McIntyre, Holmes, Hoilett, Mbengue, Hendrick, Loum, Ince, Fornah, Meite

Bristol City's injury situation has eased a little in recent weeks with just Kal Naismith on the sidelines at the moment. Timm Klose and Tomas Kalas had been absent for a while and both will again be involved in some capacity.

Bristol City Predicted lineup – O'Leary, Atkinson, Klose, Vyner, Sykes, Scott, James, Williams, Dasilva, Wells, Semenyo
