Image for Rotherham Vs Reading- Preview

Reading travel to Rotherham tonight in another Championship tie. It’ll be a similar game to Charlton on Saturday as we’ll be looking to continue our fantastic form.

Predicted Line-ups

Rotherham- Camp; Buxton, Rawson, Collins, Toffolo; Maguire, Green, Andreu, White; Derbyshire, Clarke-Harris

Reading- Al-Habsi; Gunter, McShane, Hector, Obita; Mccleary, Norwood, Williams, Hurtado; Blackman, Sa

Rotherham Team News:

Redfearn takes charge of his first home game as manager of Rotherham after defeat away at Brentford on Saturday. He’ll be looking to get off to a good start, but knows it’ll be a tough, tough game. Toffolo will be looking to start his first game after his loan move from Norwich. They will be without Newell, Ward, Frecklington and Mattock through injury and Swallwood through suspension.

Player to watch: Clarke-Harris

Clarke-Harris has a lot of pace and a decent left peg on him. The defence will have to be aware for this and close him down early.

Reading Team News:

Matej Vydra will be looking to return from Injury. Hurtado and Mccleary will also be looking to start after poor performances from Piazon and John on the weekend. Bond, Quinn and HRK are still out.

Player to watch: Nick Blackman

It’s this man again as he looks to continue his fine goal scoring record. The Rotherham defence will have to be at their very best to stop him from doing damage tonight.

Did You Know?

Rotherham have won their last three home games against Reading. Winning 2-1 last season, 1-0 in 2005 and 5-1 in 2004.

Match Prediction:

I feel Reading will have far too much for Rotherham tonight in an attacking sense. With Blackman on fire and Vydra back, I can see a 4-1 Reading win

Next Fixtures:

Fulham (A)- 24th October

Brighton (H)- 31st October

Huddersfield (H)- 3rd November
