ℹ️ Team News: Blackburn Rovers

The Blackburn Rovers manager Jon Dahl Tomasson has a full complement, with no fitness worries at all ahead of this match thanks to a completely healthy squad to pick from.

It seems likely that Rovers will possibly employ a 4-2-3-1 formation for this one, beginning the first half with Aynsley Pears, Joe Rankin-Costello, Hayden Carter, Dominic Hyam, Harry Pickering, Lewis Travis, Tyler Morton, Sorba Thomas, Sammie Szmodics, Ben Brereton and Sam Gallagher.

📋 Team News: Reading

Due to a completely injury-free squad ready to go, the Reading manager Paul Ince has zero fitness worries at all ahead of this clash.

We are inclined to think that The Royals appear most likely to make use of a 4-2-3-1 formation, starting Joe Lumley, Amadou Salif Mbengue, Thomas Holmes, Naby Sarr, Tom McIntyre, Cesare Casadei, Mamadou Loum Ndiaye, Thomas Ince, Jeff Hendrick, Shane Long and Lucas Joao.

🧠 Prediction

We’ve got the feeling that Blackburn Rovers will probably be able to create a decent number of chances and shots on target.

In contrast, Reading will not find it easy to get shooting opportunities although we do see them being dangerous at times.

Accordingly, we see a 3-1 win for Blackburn Rovers at the conclusion of the game.
