💡 Prediction
We are of the inclination to think that Peterborough United and Reading should end up playing out a closely-fought contest here.
It’s looking like it could well end up as a draw but we do expect to see goals at each end. We therefore think that it’s going to be a highly competitive game with a 2-2 draw at the end of this game.
