Newcastle v Reading: Preview and Predictions

Some sides seem to now have accepted the challenges of being in a fight for Premiership survival – and there seems to be a little more urgency about Reading than is the case with sides like Aston Villa.

          The comeback that Reading mounted, having gone 2-0 down, shows that they’re not to be counted out just quite yet.  Whilst Reading where enjoying what is likely to be considered the highlight of their season, Newcastle were trundling their way through the most pedestrian fixture of the weekend.

          This fixture is more than a hard one to call at this stage of the season.  Newcastle are struggling to come to terms with the fact they’re not half as effective as they were last season and Reading have come to terms with the fact they have treat every single Premier League game as if it’s their last.

          We expect this game to be close and we hope it’ll make up for the lack of goals in the previous Newcastle fixture.  Expect both teams to score, and although we predict a draw, expect a close game with points that could be taken by either side.
