DERBY COUNTY v READING
Tuesday 12th January 2016 – Kickoff: 1945hrs
Football – England – Championship Betting Tips
Derby County will no doubt be keen to get back to winning ways this evening when they play host to mid-table Reading at the iPro Stadium as The Rams have failed to win their last two Championship matches.
A 2-2 draw away at Leeds United was further compounded by a 2-0 loss away at Middlesbrough, but it should be noted that both of these results were dealt out away from home, and that Derby County possess a very solid record on home turf in the Championship.
A record of 7-4-1 23/8 has seen The Rams unbeaten in their last nine matches in which they’ve won seven of these encounters. Derby’s forward line of Ince, Martin and Russell is one of the most potent in the second tier and they look likely to score again this evening.
Visitors Reading won last time out in the Championship with a 1-0 home win over strugglers Bristol City, and The Royals have also registered a recent win over Blackburn Rovers at their Madejski Stadium.
However, both of these recent successes have been on home turf while Reading’s away form has been woeful in recent times as they’ve lost their last six away matches on the trot scoring 4 goals for, but conceding a total of 13 against!
Reading’s away record stands at 3-2-7 14/19 and they’ve kept just one clean sheet on their travels all season. Perhaps more importantly, Reading have lost their last four encounters against top half opposition away from home on the trot.
