Reading vs Birmingham City match preview
A Reading outfit nothing short of desperate for a return to winning ways are set to act as hosts, in a Championship meeting with Birmingham City at the Madejski Stadium this Friday, April 7th.
This comes amid nothing short of a nightmare stretch of form on the part of the Royals.
All told, dating back to late-February, Paul Ince’s troops are winless in their last six.
This stretch also includes a quartet of defeats, the most alarming of which came in the form of a five-goal drubbing at Middlesbrough.
To their credit, Reading have at least managed to steady the ship over the last few weeks, notching successive draws either side of the international break.
Most recently, a trip to Ashton Gate to face Bristol City saw Lucas Joao’s late finish prove decisive, en route to a 1-1 stalemate.

And hopeful of adding ever further to the woes of their hosts on Friday will be a Birmingham City outfit to have enjoyed an altogether more fruitful time of things of late.
The Blues, too, had until recently looked like they may be condemned to the drop to League One, amid a season to forget to date.
Safe to say, then, that a recent resurgence could not have come at a better time.
Birmingham, for their part, have emerged triumphant from three of the club’s last four league outings, surging to 16th in the standings in England’s 2nd tier in the process.
Their most recent triumph, meanwhile, proved of a particularly head-turning nature, as Reda Khadra’s finish just beyond the hour mark proved enough to condemn promotion-chasing Blackburn Rovers to defeat.
With three clean sheets from their last four, too, it therefore looks hard to bet against John Eustace’s men emerging from the Madejski with at least a share of the spoils later today.
