Reading Preview – Can Reading spoil Boro’s escape?
Reading bring a three-match unbeaten sequence into this Tuesday night clash against lowly Middlesbrough as The Royals prepare to move further up the Championship table at Middlesbrough’s expense.
Tuesday’s hosts, Reading, have secured valuable wins against Luton Town and Charlton Athletic in 5-0 and 1-0 victories respectively which has contributed to the Berkshire team confirming their Championship status for another season, with Mark Bowen’s side a comfortable 11 points above the relegation zone with just three league matches of the season remaining.
The bigger picture shows us that Reading have lost just two of their last eight matches overall, but at home, Reading have picked up just one win from their last nine matches, so they’ll be keen to improve their 7-4-10 24/28 record when Boro come to visit.
Middlesbrough Preview – Can Boro keep their heads above water?
A recent 2-0 win away from home at Millwall last Tuesday was just the tonic for Neil Warnock’s Middlesbrough side as they picked up a vital three points in their bid to avoid relegation and enabled the north-east club to keep their heads above water for the time being.
However, Middlesbrough failed to capitalise on home advantage at their Riverside Stadium on the weekend as they were handed a heavy and very disappointing 3-1 loss by Bristol City, and Boro now face a tricky trip down to Berkshire to take on a resurgent Reading outfit at the Madejski Stadium.
Being away from home might just suit Middlesbrough though as they’ve won three of their last four matches on their travels which includes earlier wins at Charlton Athletic and Stoke City, but they too need to improve their away record which stands at 5-6-10 24/30.
