Prediction: 0-0
Sheffield Wednesday
Reading lost the opening match of the season to Derby County on the opening day of the Championship and haven’t improved much since. They are still waiting for the first win of the season and have only earned two points so far, having drawn the last two games against Blackburn and Aston Villa. Sheffield Wednesday will head to the Madejski Stadium on Saturday with new confidence since they got their first two wins of the new season in their last two matches, against Milwall and Ipswich Town. The popular Biscuitmen have only scored four goals so far and they will need to improve in order to get the first win. The Owls have Joao in form after scoring two in the last game, and Forestieri also has two so far. Both will hope to add to their tally in Reading. We predict that Reading will be able to hold Sheffield Wednesday and get a point from this match.
