Reading vs Wycombe Wanderers Predictions

Both teams can strike in early League One clash

Reading and Wycombe both score a lot of goals – no team has scored more League One goals this season than Wycombe’s 65 – and the best bet in Saturday’s clash at the Madejski Stadium is that both teams score.

Both sides have scored in 23 of Reading’s 39 matches this season and this should be entertaining with both teams needing a win.

Wycombe are third in the table, 13 points ahead of Reading, with 21 wins, 12 draws and six losses. Reading have won 17, drawn 11 and lost 11 this season.

Reading were 3-1 winners over Peterborough in their last League One home game and have avoided defeat in nine of their last ten matches at home. Wycombe beat Rotherham United 3-2 two weeks ago in their most recent away game and are hard to beat, having avoided defeat in five of their last six league games.

Both teams have scored in 15 of Wycombe’s 19 League One away games, with this being a winning bet in nine of their last 11 on the road.

Both teams have had their struggles at the back lately. Reading have failed to keep a clean sheet in three games, while Wycombe are on a run of seven away days without recording a shutout.

It could be hard to separate these two sides, with the 1-1 draw looking like a decent correct-score bet. Six of Reading’s 11 League One draws have finished 1-1 and they drew 1-1 the last time these sides met in the league.
