THE PREDICTION
Both these two sides picked up hard fought draws in midweek. Reading ended their four game losing streaking after drawing 1-1 away at Millwall, whilst Bristol City held a strong Watford side 0-0 at Ashton Gate. The two teams meet here with one point separating them in the Championship. Bristol City are the side inform, having won three of their last four matches and know that victory here would push them into the automatic promotion places at least temporarily. With such a cherry on offer, they are likely to come out and attempt to take the game to the hosts, potentially feeding on their uncertainty and lack of confidence considering their recent poor run. However, the Royals have a strong side on paper and it’s only a matter of time before they find form once again. On paper, not much looks like separating these two and a second draw in less than a week could be on the cards for both of them here.
