Millwall vs Reading Prediction & Betting Tips - Carabao Cup
by Kennedy Kechula in Carabao Cup Predictions
Reading will be away to Millwall on Tuesday as the two clubs begin their 2023/24 League Cup campaign. The winner of this first-round tie will advance to the second round. Millwall will be out to keep their 100% start to the new season intact in this match. Gary Rowett’s charges couldn’t have wished for a better league start than the one they got on Saturday away to Middlesbrough. The Lions were 1-0 victors over one of the favourites for this year’s English Championship title. This ended a two-game run without a win and they will be eager to start a winning streak here. Millwall have defeated Reading four times in the last five encounters so this will add to their confidence. The capital club has struggled with a lack of consistency, especially when playing at home. They are without a win in their last four matches as hosts with three of those ending in defeat.
Reading had a disastrous season in 2022/23 which culminated with them suffering relegation, ending a 10-year stay in the English second tier. The Royals ended the season without winning any of their last 13 matches with seven of those ending in defeat. This woeful form has continued up until now. Ruben Selles’ charges have lost six matches on the trot since the end of last season. Five of those fixtures are pre-season friendlies. To begin the new League One season, the Biscuitmen were defeated 1-0 at home by Peterborough. But as they were 1-0 winners the last time they played away to Millwall, they will arrive for this match with optimism. Both Reading and Millwall were eliminated in the first round of last season’s League Cup.
