Birmingham vs Reading Match Preview:
It would be an understatement to say that Birmingham have been in impressive form on their own patch of late, picking up points 17 out of 20 times. Reading by contrast, have suffered 15 defeats in their previous 21 away from home. matches at this level, with their most recent defeat away from home coming in this fixture this year.
Birmingham had appeared in 15 away games of 21 in the Championship with two goals or less, so achieving consistency did not prove too difficult in this area. For their part, Reading hasn’t been uprooting too many trees in terms of home-ground excitement either, with nine of their last 12 games producing fewer than 2.5 goals.
It’s been quite an unusual experience to watch Birmingham score and concede during the same 91 minutes in a Championship game recently, and this happened just three times out of 11 possible. With only six of the previous 21 top-flight games involving Reading having produced goals at either end, at least one of the two goalkeepers should launch a shutout here.
Birmingham vs Reading Prediction
While the visitors have moved to the top half of the table after their last win, the hosts have slipped to 14th place after three consecutive games without a win.
With just one defeat in their last seven games at this ground, Birmingham City is confident they can take three points from this game. However, they have only managed to keep clean sheets in just two of their last five games, something that will need to change.
As for Reading, Paul Ince will be happy to have returned to league action with a win after the World Cup break. The Royals have now collected six points from their last two league games, but going into this encounter with one of the worst road results in the league, Friday’s game could prove difficult.
