Reading vs Luton: Top Free Betting Tips

After saving a point against Championship leaders Burnley, Reading are all set to host Luton Town in the next fixture on Wednesday, 19 April. The Hatters make an appearance at Select Car Leasing Stadium on the back of two successive league victories.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: No

Reading’s offensive form has been dismal at home as they failed to score in three of the previous five matches at Kenilworth Road. Luton Town has been on the scoring side in four games in the same number of road trips. The Hatters have also been outstanding at the back and kept four clean sheets in that duration. Luton has also restricted the Royals from scoring in two of the last three H2Hs at Select Car Leasing Stadium. Hence, we expect only Luton Town to be strong enough to get on the score sheet in this game.

Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

Luton Town has claimed three victories in the previous five away fixtures but managed five goals in that course. Reading is even worse than that and rattled the net only twice in the same number of matches at Select Car Leasing Stadium. Defensively, the Hatters also claimed two consecutive clean sheets away from Kenilworth Road before this game. Moreover, all of the previous five duels between these teams have ended with Under 2.5 Goals. In light of the current scenario, we predict the same trend to be followed in this game.

Correct Score Prediction: 0-2 to Luton

Luton Town has managed to score more than once in only one of the last seven fixtures away from Kenilworth Road. Reading recorded a winless run but they have conceded only one goal per game in four of the previous five matches in front of the home crowd. Adding more to this, Luton Town has also scored only five in the last five matches against the Royals at Select Car Leasing Stadium. Given these stats, we expect the Hatters to earn a 0-2 lead before the referee blows his final whistle.
