Paul Ince has named an unchanged team from the one that drew with Swansea City on Easter Monday for the trip to Hull City.
A 95th minute equaliser from Academy graduate Tom McIntyre completed the Royals' comeback from 1-4 down to draw 4-4 with the Swans on the Bank Holiday.
In yet more positive news, midfield magician Ovie Ejaria has returned to the bench after his thigh injury meant he missed out on the last game at the SCL Stadium.
Tom Holmes, who was also missing last time out with a fever, has not recovered for the trip to Humberside, leaving Terell Thomas as the obvious defensive substitute.
