Struggling Wycombe Wanderers will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Reading in the upcoming league round. It’s 24th vs 5th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
- Wycombe Wanderers has the most conceded goals (51) in Championship
- Reading has the most matches over the total-line (18) in Championship
It's no vacation for neither Wycombe Wanderers nor Reading as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Wycombe Wanderers form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Championship this season. Wycombe Wanderers, who have the most conceded goals (51) in Championship, have only managed 2 wins, 5 draws and 8 losses from their games here at Adams Park. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Wanderers, their manager G. Ainsworth and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

6 wins, 6 draws and 3 losses. That’s the product of Reading playing as the away team in the Championship this season.

The scoreline was 2-0.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Reading manager V. Paunovic as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Rotherham United.
