West Brom vs Reading Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Daniel Ngulu in Championship Predictions
A strong finish to 2022 left West Bromwich Albion just a point outside the top six and they will hope to rise in the promotion places when they host Reading in their next Championship game. The two sides face off separated by just a point; West Brom in 11th place on 35 points while Reading are 10th with 36 points. Heading into this game, West Brom posted a second straight win and a fourth in five when they trounced Preston North End 2-0 through Okay Yokuslu’s brace. West Brom have now managed three clean sheets in their last four matches and scored two or more in four of the last five. They only failed to score once in the last five matches. At home, they have four straight wins, all with clean sheets and they have scored two or more in each of their last three home games.
Reading are coming into this game straight off a 1-1 draw with another promotion contender, Norwich City. It took an 83rd minute equalizer from Andy Carroll from the penalty spot for Reading to claim a share of the spoils in that game. The goal conceded earlier in the second half though, meant Reading have managed just one clean sheet in their last seven matches. They have scored in each of their last five matches and will hope this form plays out against one of the impressive defences in the recent matches. Reading have however not done so well away from home, with just one win in eight in the league. They have five losses in the eight away matches in the Championship. It will not help that they haven’t won any of the last seven meetings with West Bromwich Albion.
