The match

With just three games left in the English Championship season, it is getting tight at both the top and bottom of the points tables. Reading (19th, 45 points) start this round five points above the relegation zone, while West Bromwich Albion are almost sure of their playoff spots. The hosts held Bristol City to a 1-1 draw in the last round making it a three-match unbeaten run (W1, D2) in the Championship. They have lost only just twice in their last ten league games (W4, D4, L2) with eight of those matches seeing goals at both ends. They are at wrong ends of the table in goals scored (48) and conceded (64). Playing at home, Reading have lost only once in their last eight Championship matches (W5, D2, L1), with four of those wins coming by a one-goal margin. West Brom managed a 3-2 win over Hull City in the last round that keeps them ten points above the seventh-placed Bristol City, although having played one game extra. The Baggies have won five of their last seven matches (W5, L2) and have the second-best scoring attack (84 goals). They have won nine of their last 13 Championship away games (W9, L4), but three of those losses have come in their last four trips.

Key Statistics

  • Reading have seen over 2.5 goals in their last four Championship home games.
  • West Bromwich Albion has seen over 2.5 goals in four of their last five Championship games.
  • Both teams scored goals in 29 of West Brom’s 43 Championship matches.

The bet of our experts

Both sides are coming off contrasting results, with Reading managing a battling draw against Bristol City, while West Bromwich Albion continuing their good run with a win. With the playoffs in sight, the Baggies should continue their goal rush which is why we are backing this match to have over 2.5 goals.
