Line ups confirmed – Rotherham vs Reading

The line-ups have been confirmed for tonight’s game against Rotherham, and Steve Clarke has made six changes.

Reading – 4-1-2-1-2: Andersen; Gunter, Hector, Cooper, Kelly; Chalobah; Karacan, Norwood; Obita; Cox, Pogrebnyak.
Subs: Federici, Pearce, McCleary, Mackie, Stacey, Blackman, Appiah.

Rotherham – 4-4-2: Martinez; Hunt, Morgan, Broadfoot, Lafferty; Frecklington, Smallwood, Arnason, Pringle; Ward, Derbyshire.
Subs: Collin, Wood, Bowery, Green, Hammill, Wilson, Clarke-Harris.

Six changes in total from Clarke then, as he is evaluating his squad ahead of next season. Three players coming into the side are out of contract in the summer – those are skipper Jem Karacan, Stephen Kelly and Mikkel Andersen in goal. Jake Cooper also comes in for a start.

Pogrebnyak also returns, after missing the previous two games with a calf injury. We always seem to do better with Pog in the side, so hopefully he’ll have a similar impact. He will play alongside the out-of-form Simon Cox, who needs to prove a point to the manager.
