Reading receive Cheltenham Town for another appealing League One match here at Select Car Leasing Stadium.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Reading form and stats

The home fans saw their team lose the first League One game of the season here at Select Car Leasing Stadium. Last season these fans witnessed 10 wins, 8 draws and 5 losses from Reading's 23 home games.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 180 minutes without scoring a league goal. May was the last player to find the net.

The fans are hoping that Reading will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the game against Port Vale (placed 14th). The penalty miss from Carroll in the defeat against Port Vale was a source of irritation for some fans, but these things happen.

Before that one, a nice away win at Millwall. A Carabao Cup game.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the League One game versus Stevenage in only four days. This game is also played here at Select Car Leasing Stadium.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Reading at home in the league. 0 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.

Cheltenham Town form and stats

Cheltenham Town have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the League One were 6 victories, 4 draws and 13 defeats from 23 fixtures.

The attacking players of Cheltenham Town have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 182 minutes.

The manager Elliott was unhappy after their last game, played at their home ground Jonny-Rocks Stadium. Cheltenham suffered a 0-3 loss to Bolton Wanderers (placed 1st). Cheltenham Town did not look prepared in the first half against Bolton Wanderers and lost the game during the first 45 minutes. They need to evaluate their pre-match routine before this one.

The match before that was the Carabao Cup-duel against Birmingham City, a home loss (0-2). We have checked recent matches where Cheltenham Town have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 10 games were 2 victories, 5 draws and 3 defeats.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Cheltenham manager Elliott as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Portsmouth.

It's early days yet, but Cheltenham Town has scored 0 and conceded 1 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
