Reading vs Burnley Predictions

• Burnley are unbeaten in their last 20 Championship matches (W16, D4)
• Reading have failed to win any of their last eight Championship matches (D3, L5)
• Both teams to score has been a winning selection in Reading’s last five matches

Burnley have title in touching distance

Burnley need five points to seal a thoroughly deserved Championship title and they can more than halve that deficit with a victory at Reading.

Vincent Kompany’s side are unbeaten in their last 20 Championship matches (W16, D4) and unsurprisingly boast the best away record in the division, they should take all the beating on Saturday.

Reading can bag a consolation

Reading desperately need to start winning games if they are to avoid the drop this season. Paul Ince left the club earlier this week, with former player, Noel Hunt, taking over on an interim basis.

Reading face the Champions elect, Burnley, in Hunt’s first game in charge and it is hard to make any case for the hosts here, who have failed to win any of their last eight league matches (D3, L5). Reading do pose more threat at home than they do on the road and they may be capable of bagging a consolation goal, both teams to score has been a winning selection in each of Reading’s last five matches.

Burnley to win and both teams to score will be the main selection for Saturday’s game, with a 2-1 away victory forming the correct score prediction.
