Reading vs Millwall Predictions

Tip Reasoning

• Over 2.5 goals has been a winner in five of Reading’s last six home games
• Reading have lost just one of their last seven home league games
• Millwall have lost three of their last fourteen games
• Over 2.5 goals has been a winner in three of Millwall’s last five games

Reading’s home fortress

Reading have been brilliant at home this season, and have the fifth best home record in the Championship. Earning an average of 1.94 points per game, and having lost just once in their last seven at the Madejski, Reading will be confident going into every home game, with this one no different.

There have been over 2.5 goals in 65% of Reading’s home games, including in five of their last six, while over 2.5 goals has been a winner in three of their opponent Millwall’s last five games. With Millwall suffering a 2-2 draw and 3-2 loss to their promotion rivals Luton and Norwich respectively, their playoff push has begun to stutter, and Reading will be looking to add to the damage on Saturday. Over 2.5 goals looks the best prediction for this one.

Millwall pushing for the playoffs

Despite their two most recent results putting a dent in their playoff challenge, Millwall still sit just one point outside of the top six, behind the Norwich side who were 3-2 victors when the sides faced last week. They will be looking to return to winning ways this weekend.

Due to Reading’s imperious home form this season, they will believe they can get something from this game, and a correct score prediction of a 2-2 draw looks good based on recent results. A safer bet would be to back Millwall/draw on double chance, with the visitors the stronger team and looking to win again.
