Blackpool are eager to escape the relegation zone, but with Reading showing signs of improvement, a low-scoring 1-1 draw is on the horizon. The Seasiders have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team beating Cardiff City, losing to Burton, while sharing the spoils with Leyton. As Blackpool have been averaging only 1 goal per game this season, we are unlikely to see a real football festival at Bloomfield Road. Albie Morgan’s injury remains a big issue for the hosts.
The Royals, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Rotherham. Given their eight-game winless run on the road in all competitions, we do not believe that the visitors are capable of picking up all three points from the Bloomfield Road clash. You should know that there have been under 2.5 goals in 85% of their last 7 League One fixtures. Matt Richie misses out through suspension, but the Scottish veteran is not regarded as a first-team regular.
Even though Blackpool and reading have been involved in some high-scoring H2H encounters in the past, their current trend points toward Under 2.5 goals betting option. Additionally, HT Draw and Draw betting tips seem appealing.
This League 1 match will be played on Saturday 29 November 2025 at 12:30.
