Reading have an average form in the league of late. They were unbeaten in four of the past five league matches but are sitting at second from the bottom of the standings. Meanwhile, Wigan is having an unimpressive form in the league of late as they recorded four winless games in the past five.

Do also note that Wigan was winless in seven of the past eight league road trips. Moreover, they were winless in three of the past four head to head clashes against Reading at this stadium. On the other side, Reading was unbeaten in six of the past seven home outings.

Therefore, we like to back Reading to win at 2.10 odds as the main betting tip for this match. Going on, more than 50% of the home matches played by Reading and four of the past five road trips of Wigan were low-scoring. Thus, we like to back the under 2.5 goals tip at 1.93 odds.
