Manchester United Reading betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

In this confrontation between Manchester United and Reading, we believe we will have more than 2.5 goals scored by the teams, mainly because Manchester United, now with a new coach, has adopted a more offensive posture in the home matches and is performing very busy games. Therefore, we believe this will be another game in which Manchester United will score several goals.

Preview
Manchester United and Reading meet at Old Trafford, in a match for this stage of the FA Cup (3rd Round). The only recent head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 07‑01‑2017, and ended in a (4‑0) win by Manchester United.

Analysis Man Utd

The home team plays its first match in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of using the home advantage to get a positive result. They come to this match after a away win against Newcastle United by (0‑2). Manchester United has won 6, tied 3 and lost 1 of the last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches. They have conceded the first goal in 7 of their 15 matches, and have only turned the score around in 2.

Manchester United is a team that has twenty Premier League and three Champions League titles, the last one conquered in the 2007/08 season. The team has been making an irregular campaign in the national championship in the current season, having won 38 of 63 points played so far, being at the top of the table, but far from the first placed. In the last five games that Manchester United has played at home, counting several competitions, in addition to not losing any, in four of them were scored more than 2.5 goals by the teams. We believe that in this match, Manchester United will be able to score goals and will make another very busy game.

Analysis Reading

The team plays its first match in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of getting a positive away result. In their last match, for the Championship, they got a home loss against Swansea City by (1‑4). In the last 10 away matches Reading has won 1, tied 4 and lost 5. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 17 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 5 of their 12 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Reading is a team that has conquered the Championship twice throughout its history, being the most recent title conquered in the 2011/12 season, as well as having a League 1 (third division) title. The team has been making a very weak campaign in the Championship in the current season, having won only 20 of the 78 points thus far, being among the last placed, five points behind the first team outside the relegation zone. The team conceded goals in three of the last five games it played away from home. We believe that in this clash Reading will certainly suffer goals again.
