Reading vs Huddersfield Betting Tips

They came from behind to draw 1-1 at home to leaders Brighton on Saturday and will be determined to get the job done against Huddersfield to secure a solid return of 4 points from two quick-fire home games.

They’ve not won any of their last 3 games in the league so this is a mini-blip for the Royals but this one definitely presents them with their best chance for 3 points to continue what has been an otherwise impressive start to the season.

7th placed Reading have only lost once in the league at home so far, while their opponents have only won once away. Reading’s defeat came to high-flying Derby while Huddersfield’s victory was at a woefully out-of-sorts Charlton so there was nothing remarkable about either of those results and there is little about Huddersfield that suggests they could cause an upset here.

Every time they have played a side currently in the top 9 away from home this season they have lost and the most recent of those defeats came at Burnley on Saturday.

The likes of Championship top scorer Nick Blackman, Orlando Sá and Matej Vydra, who scored the leveller at the weekend, give Reading a real goal threat that was rarely evident last year and they should have enough firepower to beat Huddersfield and you can back them to win at 8/11.

The Terriers are rarely well beaten though and there last two matches have resulted in two narrow 2-1 defeats against highly fancied sides in the shape of Derby and Burnley. A repeat here would be no shock at all and can be backed at generous odds of 15/2.
