Reading Fulham betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This is a match between teams with some offensive power and some flaws in the defensive sector, and in addition they put few players on the defensive sector. Reading has shown some ease in creating score situations, and playing at home is very likely to score at least one goal. On the other hand, Fulham shows great quality on the counterattack and doesn’t want to lose the distance for the first placed of the competition. So, we believe that a bet on both teams score is of great value.

In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Blackburn Rovers, by (2‑3). In the last match, they won in a home match against Norwich City, by (3‑1). 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 7 wins, 1 draw and 7 losses in away matches, with 17 goals scored and 27 conceded; against 9 wins, 5 draws and 1 loss at their stadium, with 24 goals scored and 11 conceded.

Reading is going through a great moment in this English league and in the last match received and beat Norwich by 3-1: the goals were signed by Kermorgant, McCleary and Harriott. In this match at home the coach Jaap Stam should align the team in 4-3-3 benefiting ball possession and supported attacks, however, in some moments of the match they must act directly on the counterattack. The right winger Garath McCkeary is Reading's great highlight with 8 goals and 6 assists. It’s important to emphasize that “The Royals” add five consecutive victories playing in this condition. It seems that the coach won’t count on Quinn, Rakels and Meite, players who are recovering from injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Ali Al-Habsi, Chris Gunter, Tyler Blackett, Joey van den Berg, Liam Moore, Paul McShane, Danny Williams, Liam Kelly, John Swift, Garath McCleary, Roy Beerens.
Coach: N. Hunt.

However, the forward Chris Martin is Fulham's top scorer with 7 goals scored. To note that the visiting team has the third best income away home. It seems that the coach won’t count on Aluko and Kalas, both injured.

Coach: M. Saraiva da Silva.
