Prediction: 2-1
Mansfield
Following a thrilling 4-1 win over Northampton Town, Reading will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Mansfield Town on Matchday 23. The Royals have regained a much-needed confidence and a triumph over Mansfield will see the finish the season in top six. As Louie Holzman is back from suspension, home win should be considered once again. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Yellows, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Rotherham United and Peterborough. Mansfield Town have a chance to move closer to the playoffs berth, but given Reading’s excellent display in the Boxing Day triumph, home win should definitely be considered. A man to keep an eye on in the away team will be Will Evans, who scored a brace against the Posh.
Highlighted Team (Reading):
Reading FC is a professional football club that play in the Championship. The club was formed in 1871 and Madejski Stadium has been the home of Reading since 1998. The Royals used to play their home games at Elm Park in the past (1896 - 1998). Reading made it to the FA Cup semi-finals on two occasions (1927, 2015), but they have yet to win the prestigious trophy.
The likes of Robin Friday, Trevor Senior, Steve Death, Shaka Hislop, Phil Parkinson, Alf Messer, Jimmy Quinn, Michael Gilkes, Ronnie Blackman, Pavel Pogrebnyak and Martin Hicks are some of their more notable footballers. Aldershot Town were considered Reading’s fiercest rivals, but the Shots went out of business in 1992.
Seeing that Aldershot rejoined the league in 2008 it remains to be seen if the rivalry is going to be re-established in near future. Swindon Town and Oxford United are considered Reading’s big rivals as well.
