The head‑to‑head history at this stadium, favours the home team, since in the last 4 head‑to‑heads they won 3 and lost 1. Accordingly, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, for the Championship, on 22‑04‑2017, Nottingham Forest won by (3‑2). B. Assombalonga (31' and 47' ) and M.

Analysis Nottm Forest
The home team is currently in the 17th position of the league, with 36 points won, after 11 wins, 3 draws and 18 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Hull City, by (0‑2). In the last match, they tied in an away match against Burton Albion, by (0‑0). This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses in away matches; against 6 wins and 9 losses at their stadium. In the last 10 home league matches Nottingham Forest has a record of 4 wins and 6 losses, so they have won 12 points out of 30 possible.
In this competition, they have a sequence of 5 losses in the last home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, and their offense needs to do better, since they haven’t scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 20 of their 32 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 2.
Nottingham Forest comes to this game with a goalless draw against Burton Albion, adding to the fifth consecutive game without winning in several competitions. It is important to point out that the locals have had five consecutive defeats in their stadium. In this home game we will expect coach Aitor Karanka to play in 4-2-3-1 benefiting the maintenance of the possession of the ball and slowed attacks, looking for most of the time the offensive reference Dowell: this player is the best Nottingham Forest scorer with 9 goals scored. It is important to emphasize that the locals present several failures in the defensive set pieces and in the aerial game. For this game the coach can not count on Lichaj, punished, besides Hobbs and Cohen, both injured.

Analysis Reading
The away team is currently in the 18th position of the league, with 32 points won, after 8 wins, 8 draws and 15 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Millwall, by (0‑2). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Middlesbrough, by (2‑1). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 19 goals scored and 21 conceded; against 3 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses at their stadium, with 14 goals scored and 20 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Reading has a record of 3 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 12 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (7 out of 16 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 31 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 17 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 16 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 7 of their 20 goals between minutes (61'‑75').
Reading's side leaves for this game unmotivated after adding another defeat in the league, this time against Middlesbrough by 2-1. In the image of its opponent, the away team follows at the bottom of the standings. In this away game, coach Jaap Stam is expected to line up in the same tactical system as the last match, that is, 4-2-3-1, Martin being the most advanced man in the home team. On the other hand, Modou Barrow is the great highlight of the away team with 7 goals scored. We remember that the away team has weaknesses in the finalization, which has been reflected in the results. For this game the coach can not count on the injured Mendes, Obita, Quinn and Elpick.
