Reading vs Luton Predictions

• Reading are on a nine match winless streak
• Luton have not lost in ten fixtures
• The Hatters are on an unbeaten run of ten outings on the road

Can Reading pick up a vital win?

Reading’s position in the Championship is looking more perilous by the game, and they finished the weekend in the bottom three on goal difference after a 0-0 draw with Burnley.

That match was a first under interim manager Noel Hunt, who has replaced Paul Ince in the hot seat but was unable to end a run of eight outings without a victory, of which five have ended in defeat.

And although ten of the Royals’ 13 successes this season have come at the Madjeski Stadium, their last five home outings have seen them pick up three draws and two defeats, failing to score on three occasions.

Luton still chasing Sheffield United

Luton’s season on the other hand has been a remarkable one, and they still have dreams of getting promoted automatically thanks to a ten game unbeaten streak.

Seven of those matches have ended in victory, while the Hatters have remarkably kept seven clean sheets, which does not bode well for Reading given their lack of goals.

Rob Edwards’ side have also been in sensational form on the road, picking up six victories in ten outings on the road, with the other four ending all square.

I predict that Luton will win this game, with a 1-0 victory to the visitors my correct score prediction.
