Preview
Reading and Derby face at Select Car Leasing Stadium, in a match for the 26th round of the Championship. In the last league head‑to‑head, played in 29‑09‑2021, Derby County got a home win by (1‑0). At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history indicates total balance between these two teams, since there is a record of 1 draw and 1 win for each team in the last 3 matches. However, the last time these teams met at this stadium was on 05‑04‑2021, in a match for the Championship, Reading won by (3‑1). The goals of the match were scored by L. Joao (84' ), M. Olise (45' ) and G. Puscas (57' ), for Reading, and by T. Lawrence (79' ), for Derby. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, since Derby presents significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Reading

The home team is currently in the 21th position of the league, with 21 points won, after 8 wins, 3 draws and 11 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Hull City, by (1‑1). In the last match, they lost in an away match against West Bromwich Albion, by (1‑0). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 2 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 13 goals scored and 25 conceded; against 4 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 21 goals scored and 24 conceded. For the league, Reading won 12 points out of 30 possible points, after 3 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses in the last 10 home matches. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (4 out of 11 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 13 of their 22 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 2.

Reading comes for this game after a 1-0 defeat, in the trip to West Bromwich, thus adding the second consecutive match without a win in this competition. Now, in this game against Derby County, Mister Veljko Paunovic must once again focus on maintaining ball possession and organized attacks: Alen Halilovic is the great organizer of the offensive process. Quite possibly, we will see this team lined up in 3-5-2, with Andy Carroll and George Puscas being the most advanced men in the team. For this game, the local coach cannot count on Lucas João, Michael Morrison, Andy Rinomhota, Jahmari Clarke, Tom McIntyre and Meite, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Luke Southwood, Scott Dann, Thomas Holmes, Baba Rahman, T. Ashcroft, Josh Laurent, John Swift, Alen Halilović, Ayotomiwa Dele-Bashiru, Junior Hoilett, Andy Carroll.
Coach: N. Hunt.

Analysis Derby

The away team is currently in the 24th position of the league, with 7 points won, after 7 wins, 10 draws and 7 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against West Bromwich Albion, by (1‑0). In the last match, they won in an away match against Stoke City, by (1‑2). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 5 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 9 goals scored and 18 conceded; against 5 wins, 7 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 21 goals scored and 19 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Derby has a record of 1 win, 5 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 8 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (6 out of 12 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 9 of the last 12 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 24 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 12 away matches for this competition there are 2 periods that stand out: they have scored 3 of their 7 goals between minutes (76'‑90'); they have conceded 5 of their 11 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Derby County starts for this game with a victory, by 1-2, in the trip to Stoke's ground, thus adding the third victory in a row in this English second division: the team's goals were stamped by Colin Kazim-Richards and Luke Plange. Now, in this away game, coach Wayne Rooney must remain convinced of his 4-3-3 where Tom Lawrence, Kamil Jozwiak and Luke Plange are the team's most offensive references: the first athlete mentioned is Derby's top scorer County with 5 goals. Out of this game are Krystian Bielik and Lee Buchanan, both with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Ryan Allsop, Craig Forsyth, Phil Jagielka, Curtis Davies, Nathan Byrne, Max Bird, Liam Thompson, Jason Knight, Tom Lawrence, Kamil Jóźwiak, Luke Plange.
Coach: W. Rooney.
