Key man watch: Chris O’Grady

Vital Reading takes a look at the danger man for the opposition in tonight’s game.

The performances of Chris O’Grady have been a rare positive for Barnsley this season, who have the worst defence in the division. Having had a successful loan spell with the Tykes last season, the 27-year old signed a permanent deal in the summer.

He already has four goals to his name this season and will be looking for more in this game, despite the Royals’ impressive defensive away record. O’Grady stands at 6’1, but possesses great upper body strength and therefore causes problems aerially for most defences.
