Watford vs Reading – This week’s matchup between Watford and Reading at Vicarage Road is a crucial one. Prior to this match, the hosts were undefeated after winning three straight games.
Watford made up for their 3-0 loss to Millwall by winning their next three games. Most recently, they triumphed 2-1 over Cardiff City.
In that match, the goals were scored by Francisco Sierralta and Ismaila Sarr, two separate players. They currently need one victory to get into the top four in the table.
Since their loss to Millwall, manager Slaven Bili has been steady in his team selection. The visitors, on the other hand, are experiencing a severe setback.
They have lost three of their last five games. Since they are now in position eleven on the board, they still have time to make a change. Reading’s away record is marred by defeats.
They last achieved an away victory almost two months ago. In their most recent game, Luton Town held them to a scoreless tie. This season, they have dropped eight games so far, with half of those defeats occurring last month.
If Paul Ince wants to lead the squad to the top four this month, he must now produce strong winning performances.
