Reading and Northampton square off against each other at Select Car Leasing Stadium in what promises to be an entertaining postponed fixture. The Royals aim to recover from a 2-1 loss to Cardiff City and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against the Cobblers. There are no fresh injury concerns in the home team, but all Camara, Garcia, and Williams remain in the recovery room.
Meanwhile, Northampton quickly bounced back from a 2-1 loss to Rotherham United, with the team beating Doncaster on the road with the same outcome. The Cobblers aim to give fans yet another reason to celebrate on Tuesday evening, but with Reading being tough to beat on home soil, we are tempted to place our bets on draw. This match comes too early for Jack Vale, with Jon Guthrie, Liam Shaw, Max Dyche, and Tom Eaves remaining on the treatment table as well.
This League 1 match will be played on Tuesday 21 October 2025 at 20:00.
