Reading vs Wigan Athletic match preview
One of the key fixtures of the upcoming Championship gameweek is set to play out at the Madejski Stadium on Saturday, April 29th.
The matchup in question will see Reading act as hosts, in a meeting with fellow relegation candidates Wigan Athletic.
Beginning with the former, Reading currently find themselves occupying the third and final spot in the bottom three in England’s 2nd tier.
Owing to a combination of wretched form and a recent points deduction, the Royals sit a point adrift of safety, staring the drop to League One square in the face.
And remedying this situation will likely require a vastly-improved showing later today.
All told, dating all the way back to late February, Reading have failed to emerge on the right side of the result in any of their last 11 fixtures.
Upcoming opponents Wigan, on the other hand, have set the wheels of a potential great escape firmly in motion over the last fortnight.
This comes with the Latics having shocked the masses, in securing, back to back, just the club’s 9th and 10th victories of the campaign.
First, a trip to The Bet365 Stadium saw a solitary Will Keane effort prove enough to down Stoke City by a goal to nil.
Then, last time out, Keane was on target once more, before Thelo Aasgaard proved himself match-winner in a home meeting with promotion hopefuls Millwall.
Wigan nevertheless remain bottom of the Championship table, but now just four points from safety, with two games to play.
Safe to say, then, that Saturday’s showdown at the Madejski Stadium marks an absolutely vital one when it comes to the survival hopes of Reading and Wigan alike.
We at 101, in turn, are backing the two sides to ultimately cancel each other out, en route to a sharing of the spoils in Berkshire.
