THE PREDICTION

Reading sit three points clear at the top of the Championship after their hard fought 1-0 win over Wycombe in midweek. They face another stubborn opponent here in Rotherham, who most recently held Chris Hughton’s Nottingham Forest to a 1-1 draw at the City Ground. Reading however, will prove an even tougher test and whilst entertainment will likely be scarce, the Royals should edge this by the odd goal.
