Reading - Wigan Athletic betting tips and odds

Though Reading definitely have a shot at winning this match, they’ll need to work for it. Wigan Athletic are somewhat stronger, but the home-field advantage may be what the hosts need to shift the balance in their favour.

The task ahead is well-known to the visiting team. Defeating Reading on their own field would be a major accomplishment, and doing so is always challenging.

The Royals’s latest Championship outing at Coventry City did not go their way, though it can’t be used to accurately represent their form. They were fighting an uphill battle as visitors against the much stronger side, who took an early lead and secured a 2:1 victory.

In the previous round of the Championship, we saw Wigan Athletic overcome heavily unfavourable odds and win against Millwall. They had the support of their home fans, sure, but most Championship betting predictions expected a quick defeat, even after neither side managed to gain a decisive advantage for more than 45 minutes

And Under 2.5 Goals market may be something to consider for this match – all 5 of Reading’s latest home outings ended up confirming it.

Wigan Athletic have a record of uneventful away matches. Specifically, their previous 2 games as visitors featured 1 goal or less.

It will be interesting to see if Wigan Athletic manage to beat this odds in this, the second clash with The Royals this season. The first time around they lost with to a 1-point difference.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the 10Bet priced at 1.70 odds.
