Continuity is the key for both teams

Reading

It has been a strange season for Reading. Their win-loss column doesn't look like something you see every day. They are currently 12th in the rankings, only two points away from a top-six position, but what is interesting is that they have eleven defeats, by far the most out of all the teams ranked inside the top 15 of the league. They balanced those losses with ten wins which is one of the highest marks in the league. The only teams that have more victories are the top three clubs in the Championship, Burnley, Sheffield United, and Blackburn. The Championship had a three-week break during the World Cup, and Reading won the first two games against Hull and Coventry before losing to Birmingham City. When it comes to their efficiency, they score just about a goal per game, but their defense lacks focus and stability. There are only three teams in the league that has conceded more than 33 goals which is the line Reading is hovering over at the moment.

Reading's predicted starting lineup: Lumley, Mbengue, Sarr, McIntyre, Yiadom, Ince, Loum, Hendrick, Baba, Long, Meite.

Swansea

The Welsh team needs to figure out how to get away from the fact that they are playing out too many draw games. Their eight-draw games are tied for the second-highest mark in the league, and there are too many points that have been wasted playing these types of games. Their specialty is viewed more in playing away games, six in all. Swansea is without a league win since the back end of October, but somehow, with all the draws they played, and with some negative results from their competition, they managed to stay in the hunt for a top-six finish which would at least take them to the promotion playoffs. There is one incredible piece of information regarding these two teams, the last time Reading beat Swansea at home happened in 2008. That's eight straight games. Reading did beat Swansea away last year, and that is their only win against the Welsh team in 14 years.

Swansea's predicted starting lineup: Benda, Naughton, Cabango, Wood, Latibeaudiere, Fulton, Grimes, Manning, Ntcham, Paterson, Piroe.

Player to Watch: Joel Piroe

The Dutch center-forward has been the top scorer for Swansea this season with six goals and will be the main threat for the Reading goal.

Piroe joined the Welsh side two summers ago from PSV Eindhoven and has scored a total of 30 goals in 67 appearances for Swansea. His only downside is that he doesn't provide many assists for his teammates, he has recorded only six in the same amount of games played.
