Preston North End vs Reading Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Steve Ashfield | in Championship Predictions
Eighth placed Preston North End bid to make it three straight league wins. They host Reading who are 22nd and a point from safety after a recent points deduction. Preston have won their last two league games and at the time of writing are only two points behind the final promotion play-off position, though sixth placed Blackburn do have a game in hand. Their wins have come at home to Blackpool and at QPR, both struggling for form at the moment. The home side has turned their season around after a poor end to 2022 and a disappointing start to the new year with seven losses in ten league games. They come into this match having won four of the last five and only a loss to Middlesbrough in the previous ten league fixtures. Home form has seen them win three of the last five, including the last two.
The whole nature of Reading's season has changed in recent weeks. A six point deduction and poor results on the pitch has them in danger of being relegated to League One. They are a point behind 21st placed QPR who are also in dreadful form. Reading's most recent game saw them lose a home lead and draw with Birmingham City. That was their third straight 1-1 draw in the Championship, though they trailed in the other two. Reading have now gone seven league games without a win. Away form is a major problem for them with only 12 points all season, the worst record in the Championship. 14 out of 20 away games have been lost with a goal difference of -24. Back Preston to get a vital home victory.
