Bristol City vs Reading
The opening week of the 43rd England Championship will present the match between Bristol City acting as host to Reading at Ashton Gate Stadium. This match was indeed quite interesting because Reading himself won the last 10 meetings with 7 wins while Bristol City only won 3 but the standings showed that Reading was far below Bristol City.
Reading are ranked 19th in the standings, they compete at the bottom of the table after only being able to get 10 wins, 14 draws and 18 defeats from a total of 42 matches that have been played. They are only 4 points ahead of Rotherham United who are in the red zone so whatever results from this match will greatly affect their ranking. Instead Bristol City is ranked 6th with 65 points.
Bristol City played quite well, their total score so far was 18 wins, 11 draws and 12 defeats. But the thing that didn’t escape attention was the result of the last match yesterday, Bristol City were helpless to visit Aston Villa headquarters, they were beaten with a score of 2-1 then on the Reading side they got a 2-0 win at Brentford FC Y. Meïté became a star in the match because he bought the winning goal.
But before getting lost to Aston Villa, actually Bristol City itself in the previous 4 games were unbeaten and this showed that Bristol City could not be said to be down. Then Reading also had a poor record when playing away, from the last 18 away only to get 1 win. Seeing things like this should the chances of victory on the side of Bristol City further benefit the home chances of Reading being beaten in this match.
