THE PREDICTION
Reading, despite a number of injury troubles are currently riding the crest of a wave after winning three successive Championship games on the bounce following their 3-0 beating of Sheffield Wednesday last weekend. They travel to Nottingham Forest, who in contrast have picked up just a point from their most recent three league fixtures. Whilst the hosts boast a number of very strong players within their ranks, Chris Hughton has yet to turn them into the top side many would expect them to be with the squad at his disposal. Reading however, look a fantastic unit with each player adapting brilliantly to their respective role. Whilst this is expected to be a tight encounter, the extra cutting edge of the visitors may be enough to give them the edge here so consider them draw no bet.
