Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Reading
Match Time & Date:
30/09/2023
16:00
Prediction: 2-1
Burton
Reading will try to recover from a heavy 4-1 loss to Blackpool when they take on Burton on Saturday afternoon. The Royals are eager to escape the relegation zone and they have no other option but to go all guns blazing at the Brewers. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, but all McIntyre, Wing, and Mbengue are pushing for a start.
Burton Albion, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 1-1 draw with Fleetwood at the weekend and given Jasper Moon’s injury, home win should definitely be considered. Fellow defender Ryan Sweeney is widely expected to replace Moon in the starting XI. In their last encounter in the Championship Reading defeated Burton 3-1 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. You should bear in mind that the Royals defeated Bolton 2-1 in their last home game in the League One.
Highlighted Player (Andy Yiadom):
Andy Yiadom was born in Holloway, London, but he began his career in the youth team of Watford. After spending two years at the Watford football academy, the pacey full-back (winger) joined Hayes & Yeading United and he scored only one goal in 36 appearances in the league for the club.
At the end of the 2010/2011 campaign Yiadom moved to Braintree Town and after scoring seven goals in 27 appearances for the Iron he signed a contract with Barnet. The 180-cm-tall footballer played for Barnet from 2012 to 2016 and he scored 14 goals in 169 appearances for the Bees. Andy Yiadom then decided to take a step forward in his career as he moved to Championship side Barnsley.
The English footballer played 32 games in the league for the Tykes last season and he provided three assists for his teammates, while receiving four yellow cards. His main position is full-back (right-back), but he is capable of playing on the left flank as well.
Highlighted Team (Burton):
Burton Albion are one of the four clubs that secure promotion to the Championship at the end of the 2015/2016 campaign. The Brewers welcome their rivals at Pirelli Stadium, the venue that was opened in 2005. The capacity of the stadium is 6,912, while the seating capacity of the venue is 2,034.
Burton Albion won the FA Trophy in 1987, with the team winning Football League Two in 2015. During the club’s non-League period, the Brewers’ local rivals were Nuneaton Borough, Tamworth, Stafford Rangers and Gresley Rovers, but while they were playing in the Football League the club’s rivals were Crewe, Port Vale, Notts County and Chesterfield.
Derby County are considered Burton Albion’s rivals as well, but the rivalry with the Rams is rather friendly. The colour of Burton Albion’s home kit is black and yellow, while they wear white and grey jerseys on the travels.
