Form Guide |
Reading are in hot league form with a run of nine games undefeated. Reading's amazing run coupled with Wigan's recent poor form has allowed us to sneak past Wigan who have been above us for ages. This is exactly the kind of game we have to win to finally rule Wigan out of the run for automatic promotion. A defeat would give new hope for the visitors, who seem destined for the play-offs or even missing out on them. Reading's Last Five Games Wigan Athletic's Last Five Games |
