Reading vs Ipswich Prediction: Team News, Line-Ups, & Form
Reading:
Reading will be reaching the third round of the EFL Cup for the first time since the 2019-20 campaign when they were knocked out by Wolves on penalties. Now, Reading has struggled to hit a consistency run in terms of wins. Manager Rubén Sellés has no injury concerns in the squad.
Predicted Line-Up:
David Button, Amadou Salif Mbengue, Harlee Dean, Nelson Abbey, Matty Carson, Femi Azeez, Charlie Savage, Sam Hutchinson, Harvey Knibbs, Caylon Vickers, Kelvin Ehibhatiomhan
Ipswich:
Ipswich are aiming to reach the third round of the EFL Cup for the first time since the 2015-16 campaign when they were beaten by Manchester United. Since then, a lot of mediocrity has followed the Tractor Boys in this competition. Manager Kevin McKenna will be without Christian Walton for this game.
Predicted Line-Up:
Vaclav Hladky, Harry Clarke, Luke Woolfenden, Cameron Burgess, Leif Davis, Sam Morsy, Massimo Luongo, Wes Burns, Conor Chaplin, Nathan Broadhead, Kayden Jackson
Player to Watch: Conor Chaplin
Conor Chaplin came up with an injury time goal against Leeds United to continue his recent scoring streak. The 26-year-old was a key factor in Ipswich’s promotion last season after managing 26 goals in 45 League One appearances. So far, Chaplin has struggled to have the same impact in the second tier.
