In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

In the last match, they have tied at home against Bolton Wanderers by (2‑2), after in the previous match they have lost (2‑0) an away match against Derby County.

Preston heads to this game after a 2-2 home draw against Bolton. The home team plays usually in a 4-3-3 where the three most advanced players are Barker, Robinson and Burke. Preston, when it invests in the offensive process usually does it through the left aisle, taking advantage of the depth offered by left-back Hughes. Given the tactical system used, one of the great valences of the locals is the attack through the side aisles. It should be noted that Preston also has many skills from the point of view of aerial game. Coach Alex Neil will not be able to count on Ben Pearson and Ryan Ledson for being suspended.

Confirmed Lineup: Declan Rudd, Darnell Fisher, Ben Davies, Tom Clarke, Paul Huntington, Daniel Johnson, Paul Gallagher, Joshua Earl, Tom Barkhuizen, Louis Moult, Callum Robinson.
Coach: A. Neil.

Reading comes to this clash this unmotivated after a 1-2 home loss to Sheffield Wednesday.
