BRIGHTON v READING
Tuesday 15th March 2016 – Kickoff: 1945hrs
Football – England – Championship Betting Tips
Brighton were held to a 0-0 draw at home on Saturday by much-improved Sheffield Wednesday at the Amex Stadium, and The Seagulls still remain in the hunt for an automatic promotion spot following a useful four-match unbeaten run ahead of tonight’s clash with Reading.
Recent 4-0 wins against Bristol City away and Leeds United at home preceded back-to-back 0-0 draws with Preston North End and Sheffield Wednesday, but they are just two points adrift of second placed Middlesbrough, with a home match in store tonight.
Brighton’s overall home record stands at an excellent 12-3-3 27/15 and they’re unbeaten in their last five matches, having won four of these with victories against Huddersfield Town, Brentford, Bolton Wanderers and Leeds United.
Visitors Reading have ndured a topsy-turvy campaign to date as their home record has been let down somewhat by their performances away from home, as The Royals have suffered just three defeat at the Madejski Stadium all season.
However, three defeats from their last four on the road emphasises the troubles Reading have had in putting any sort of decent run of results together on their travels with recent defeats at MK Dons, Ipswich Town and Huddersfield Town.
Reading’s away record reads an accordingly off-colour 4-3-10 21/29 with tonight’s visitors registering just one win from their last 12 on the road, and suffering 9 defeats during this sequence, so the moemtum is definitely not on Reading’s side going into this encounter at Brighton tonight.
Pick: Brighton to win @ 1.95 bet365
