Ipswich vs Reading Match Preview

Ipswich drew 1-1 at Wigan last weekend to make it three consecutive draws though they are still adrift at the bottom. They are on 21 points which is five behind Bolton in 23rd and nine behind Reading in 21st.

At Portman Road, the Tractor Boys have drawn their last two and lost just one of their previous four. Will Keane netted in the last game for Town and has two in previous four at this ground.

Reading have drawn four of their last six including last time out when they were held at home by Rotherham in a 1-1 draw. The Royals sit in 21st place above Rotherham on goal-difference.

Away from the Madejski, the Royals are without a victory in 13 through five of their last nine have finished all-square. They have netted on just three occasions in their last ten road trips.

Reading are favourites to win this game but without a road success in 13 I like the hosts with the draw no bet on our side. Ipswich have lost just two of their last seven at their place which includes points against Sheffield United and Derby.

Nelson Oliveira is the man main in front of goal for the Royals and you can bet the forward on loan from Norwich will be hungry to score here with his Canaries colleagues likely on the phone during the week to get him up for this.
