Reading vs Wigan: Top Free Betting Tips

Reading hosts Wigan Athletic at the Select Car Leasing Stadium on April 29 in Roun 45 of the  Championship campaign. Both teams are fighting for survival after points deductions and need a win to give themselves hope in the final fixture of the campaign.

Match Result Prediction: Wigan to Win

The Royals have been abysmal of late, going winless in their last 11 outings. They have lost six of their fixtures, while sharing points on five occasions. Wigan arrive at the Select Car Leasing Stadium on the back of successive wins over Millwall and Stoke City. Although the Latics lost the reverse fixture, they earned the three points on offer on their last visit here. Given their respective current form, further favoured by their last H2H at this venue, we are backing Wigan to win on the road.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: No

Neither Wigan nor Reading fans boast about their scoring ability. They have been one of the worst offensive sides this season and it is evidenced by the three goals apiece they have scored in their last five outings. The match will be decided by minute margins as neither side can afford the luxury of going behind. Interestingly, their last two duels have not seen both sides represented on the scoreboard, with a clean sheet for the victor to brag about.

Correct Score Prediction: 1-0 to Wigan

With backs against the walls and survival on the line, both sides have everything to play for. They will go out hunting but with a cautious approach. Neither side has been fruitful in scoring goals with three goals scored by each in their last five outings. Wigan's recent away victory came with a 1-0 scoreline and we believe that will be the case again as Reading's hope for a win continues.

Reading vs Wigan: Form, Recent Games, and News

Reading Preview

The Royals have been a mess on and off the pitch. They were deducted six points for their affairs off the pitch and have not helped their cause with their efforts on it. Reading fans will be questioning the squad's motivation as they continued to slide and are 11 matches without a win. This period of decline has seen them go from playoff contenders to relegation candidates.

Wigan Athletic Preview

The Latics are at the foot of the points table. Their cause for redemption was not helped by their three-point deduction. They still have an outside chance of survival, two wins out of the final two should get them to safety. Cardiff, Reading and Huddersfield's poor performances has given them hope and they have made the most of the opportunity with successive wins, making the end to the campaign interesting.
