Preview
Reading and Fulham face at Madejski Stadium, in a match for the 2nd round of the Championship. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 3 wins and 2 draws in the last 5 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 16‑05‑2017, in a match for the Championship, Reading won by (1‑0). The only goal of the match was scored by Y. Kermorgant (49' ). In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Reading

The home team comes to this 2nd round after a (2‑0) loss in their league debut, against Queens Park Rangers. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 16 goals scored and 27 conceded; against 11 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 11 conceded. In their last match, for the League Cup, they got a home win against Gillingham by (2‑0). In the last 10 home matches Reading has won 8, tied 1 and lost 1.

Reading heads into this match after a 2-0 win against Gillingham, in a match for the league cup. However, the season didn't start so well, as they had a 2-0 loss against QPR. Coach Jaap Stam should use an offensive formation, 4-3-3 with Bodvarsson as their most offensive reference. One of their strengths is how they create danger with attacks through the wings, but their defensive line has made some mistakes and it took a toll on their result in the first round. Kermorgant, McCleary and Joey van dr berd are absent due to injuries, and Thiago Illori is suspended.

Confirmed Lineup: Vito Mannone, Tyler Blackett, Liam Moore, Paul McShane, Tiago Ilori, Liam Kelly, George Evans, John Swift, Modou Barrow, Joseph Mendes.
Coach: C. Gunter, R. Sellés Salvador.

Analysis Fulham

The away team comes to this 2nd round after a (1‑1) draw in their league debut, against Norwich City. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 27 goals scored and 18 conceded; against 7 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 28 goals scored and 23 conceded. In their last match, for the League Cup, they got an away win against Wycombe Wanderers by (0‑2). In the last 10 away matches Fulham has won 5, tied 2 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches.

Unlike their opponent, Fulham had a positive start in the season, as they managed a 2-0 win against Wycombe in the previous cup match. in this away match, coach Slavisa Jokanovic should use a 4-2-3-1 formation prioritising defensive organization and counter attacks. Lucas Piazon is their star, as he has great vision. They should have all their players available for this match.

Confirmed Lineup: David Button, Ryan Fredericks, Ryan Sessegnon, Tomas Kalas, Tim Ream, Oliver Norwood, K. McDonald, Stefan Johansen, Sone Aluko, Floyd Ayité, Neeskens Kebano.
Coach: M. Saraiva Da Silva.
