Prediction: 3-0
Reading
Stockport welcome Reading to Edgeley Park in a game where the hosts will be aiming to build on a narrow but valuable 1-0 win over Rotherham. The Hatters are serious about promotion this season and have shown plenty of strength at home, turning Edgeley Park into a real fortress. Both Dodgson and Edun are ruled out with injuries, while the trio of Bate, Hoskonen, and Onyango remain doubtful. Even so, Stockport are in a strong position to push for another three points.
Reading, meanwhile, continue to struggle badly on their travels, losing three away matches in a row across competitions, and morale is hardly high in the squad. Paudie O’Connor remains sidelined, with Andy Yiadom also a major doubt, leaving the Royals further weakened defensively. Given Stockport’s form on home turf and Reading’s dreadful away record, we predict that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Saturday's encounter.
