Reading Norwich City betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this challenge will be for both teams to score at least one goal. An encounter dominated by outsiders is expected, however, Reading acts in their domain and can take advantage of some defensive slouch by the enemy. It should be noted that the last 9 matches between these emblems ended with the “Both teams score - Yes” winning market.

The head‑to‑head record at this stadium favours the away team, since in the last 3 head‑to‑heads they won 2 and lost 1. Accordingly, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, for the Championship, on 19‑09‑2018, Norwich City won by (1‑2). J. Böðvarsson (72' ) scored for Reading and T. Pukki (14' ) and M. Vrančić (73' ) for Norwich City. Norwich City registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

Analysis Reading

The home team is currently in the 5th position of the league, with 33 points won, after 10 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Birmingham City, by (1‑2). In the last match, they won in an away match against Queens Park Rangers, by (0‑1). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 26 goals scored and 22 conceded; against 8 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses at their stadium, with 20 goals scored and 18 conceded. For the league, Reading won 18 points out of 27 possible points, after 6 wins and 3 losses in the last 9 home matches. The most recurrent result at half‑time in their home league matches was the 0‑0 (4 out of 9 matches). They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Reading heads into this match motivated after a 0-1 triumph on the trip to QPR, returning to championship triumphs after losing to Birmingham: the only goal of the team was signed by Michael Olise. The home team's strength lies in its ability to conduct its offensive attacks through quick transitions. Attacking midfielder Michael Olise is the player responsible for putting the opponent's defensive in disarray, his accurate passes being his greatest quality. The home coach will not be able to count on Lucas João, Yakou Méïté, George Puscas, Andy Yiadom, Felipe Araruna and John Swift, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Rafael, Thomas Holmes, Liam Moore, Michael Morrison, Lewis Gibson, Andy Rinomhota, Sone Aluko, Josh Laurent, Alfa Semedo, Michael Olise, Ovie Ejaria.
Coach: N. Hunt.

Analysis Norwich

The away team is currently in the 1st position of the league, with 37 points won, after 11 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Nottingham Forest, by (2‑1). In the last match, they won in an away match against Blackburn Rovers, by (1‑2). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 9 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 23 goals scored and 20 conceded; against 6 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 18 goals scored and 16 conceded. In the last 9 away league matches Norwich City has a record of 6 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, so they have won 19 points out of 27 possible. 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 for this competition. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have only turned the score around in 2.

Norwich comes motivated for this round after a victory, by 1-2, in the trip to the ground of Blackburn, making it the third triumph in a row in this English second division: the two goals of the team were scored by Teemu Pukki. Despite being a team that likes to play in their midfield, Norwich can easily go out on the counterattack. It should be noted that striker Teemu Pukki is Norwich's top scorer with 9 goals scored. The visiting coach will not be able to count on Adam Idah, Bali Mumba, Tim Krul, Xavi Quintilla, Onel Hernández and Sam Byram for being delivered to the medical department.

Confirmed Lineup: Michael McGovern, Christoph Zimmermann, Grant Hanley, Max Aarons, Emiliano Buendía, Oliver Skipp, Marco Stiepermann, Kenny McLean, Josh Martin, Jacob Lungi Sorensen, Teemu Pukki.
Coach: D. Smith.
