Nottingham Forest hosts Reading in round 14 of the English Championship. The match will be played on Wednesday, January 22nd at City Ground (Nottingham)
If we look at the last five rounds, Nottingham scored 13 points and won in four of them. It helped the Foresters to get into the four candidates for tickets to the playoffs for the right to promote. But by and large, Nottingham is very close to 2nd place that suggests direct access to the Premier League. The team is five points behind it, but it played a match less than Leeds that takes this second line.

Reading lost to Millwall in the final round and sank to 16th place in the standings. In principle, it doesn’t do any particular damage to the Royals. They are 12 points ahead of the relegation zone. But Reading shouldn’t hope for higher places. The team needs to win back 11 points to the playoff zone.
Reading ended last year confidently, having won in the last three matches in a row at the end of December. The new one also began with a victory. But the Royals earned only one point in the last two rounds. And it gained this point in the home match against Nottingham. Repeating this trick now at City Ground Stadium will be very difficult. It has been difficult for Reading to play in Nottingham in recent years. In the last five voyages to the Foresters, the Royals managed to gain only one draw and lost in four matches. In general, rivals have played 13 times in Nottingham over the past 18 years, and the hosts won in eight cases. I think the upcoming match will also end with their victory. Nottingham gained an excellent move, Reading, on the contrary, began to slow down. The Foresters came close to the leaders, and they probably want to compete for promotion. The opponent is very comfortable, and the hosts will take advantage of this and gain victory in this match.
Prediction for the match: Nottingham to win
