Reading vs West Brom tips and predictions

Excitement expected in Championship

All possible outcomes are on the table in this match. There's a bunch of people talking about West Brom but there's data to suggest they'll fall short.

Whether it's significant or not, Reading might have reasons to be confident about adding to West Brom's recent defeats. The visitors come into the match with 8 losses from their last 10 away trips. That might not be suitable preparation for this one.

This home squad is enjoying some form on their own patch. Reading have scored two or more goals in 5 of their recent 8 home matches.

Away from home West Brom have actually conceded two or more goals in 6 of their last 8 matches. But their problems don't seem to be only in the first-third of their formation. Goal scoring chances away from their own turf have proved elusive for the visitors. They've been goalless in 11 of their last 15 away matches.

Don't be surprised to see these sides ending up in deadlock though. The match could develop into a war of attrition with the two sides ultimately cancelling each other out. In which case the BTTS No bet is the most compelling side bet.
