Analysis Reading

This is the first match in this edition of the competition for the home team, that ended the previous edition of the lower division in the 20th position and got the promotion. 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 1 win, 5 draws and 9 losses in away matches; against 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses at their stadium. They come to this match after a away draw against Rubin Kazan' by (0‑0). Reading has won 2, tied 4 and lost 4 of the last 10 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 7 of the last 10 matches.

Reading comes for this new season after finishing in 20th place in the previous championship, with 3 more points than the relegation zone. In this way, the great objective of the team will be to guarantee the maintenance as fast as possible at this time. While playing at home, the coach Paul Clement should line up the usual 4-4-2 to benefit the defensive organization and successive counterattacks. Analyzing the team visited, it’s possible to note that the Icelandic Dadi Bodvarsson was the best scorer of the team with 10 scored goals. For this first day, the coach won’t count on Harriott, injured, neither on Blackett, this due to punishment.

Confirmed Lineup: Vito Mannone, Omar Richards, Paul McShane, Tiago Ilori, Andy Yiadom, Liam Kelly, Sone Aluko, David Meyler, John Swift, Jón Daði Böðvarsson, Modou Barrow.
Coach: N. Hunt.

Analysis Derby

The away team makes its debut in this edition of the competition, after having finished 6th last season. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 16 goals scored and 20 conceded; against 8 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 29 goals scored and 14 conceded. In their last match, for the Club Friendlies, they got an away win against Coventry City by (0‑1). In the last 10 away matches Derby County has won 3, tied 3 and lost 4. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches.

Derby County was very close to making it to the Premier League the previous year, however, stayed in the semi-finals in the promotion play-offs by losing against Fulham. For this new season, the main goal of the visiting team will be the promotion to the main English division. Usually, the new coach Frank Lampard does line up an offensive team, drawn in 4-2-3-1, with Matej Vydra being the most offensive reference. We remember that the player referred to above was the great highlight in the previous year with 22 scored goals. There are no weight absences for this match.

Confirmed Lineup: Scott Carson, Andre Wisdom, Max Lowe, Richard Keogh, Curtis Davies, Joe Ledley, Craig Bryson, Mason Mount, Harry Wilson, Tom Lawrence, David Nugent.
