Football – England – Championship Betting Tips

Following their inexplicable 7-1 rout at the hands of Norwich City at Carrow Road last weekend, Reading bounced back in emphatic style away at Aston Villa on Saturday, winning 3-1 which lifted them up into fourth place in the Championship.

Prior to that heavy defeat at Norwich, Reading had strung together three league wins on the trot with victories gained over Sheffield Wednesday (away from home), along with back-to-back home wins over Leeds United and Blackburn Rovers.

The Royals now return to their Madejski Stadium where they’ve lost just twice all season amidst an overall impressive record that stands at  14-5-2  32/15. But with Reading still nine points adrift of Newcastle United in the automatic promotion spot, it looks like they’ll have to settle for a play-off place.

Visitors Rotherham United were confirmed to be relegated following their 3-2 defeat away at Wigan Athletic recently, as The Millers have had to endure a long, hard and ultimately, a campaign to forget as they’ve finished up bottom of the pile with one of the worst points tallies in Championship history.

Rotherham have lost 32 of their 42 matches played to date this term, and although they’ve collected four league wins so far, all of these have been at home while their away record has been simply appalling.

An away record of  0-1-20  15/61 is the worst in memory for some time, and they’ll surely struggle against a buoyant Reading outfit here today. They possess the worst defensive record away from home in the Championship by a mile, and I can’t see them keeping a clean sheet here!
