Reading host Coventry City after a four-week World Cup break, with a bumper crowd expected at the SCL Stadium.

Here's everything you need to know.

Form

Reading Chronicle:

Not enduring the best form, with just two wins in 10 matches before the break, Reading sit 13th in the Championship.

Despite not being in the best form, the team picked up a vital win ahead of the break with a last minute strike over Hull City.

Now, with a long break, it is a fresh start for sides up and down the country.

One team who will hope to continue where they left off is Coventry, who had won their last four on the bounce before the break.

Rising from the bottom three to the top half, Mark Robins' men now sit just two points outside the top six.

Ovie Ejaria, although not injured, will miss the game due to disciplinary issues.

Last Time Out: Reading 2-3 Coventry City, Saturday, February 12 2022

A hectic afternoon in RG2, almost 23,000 turned out for the club's 150th anniversary celebrations- but it turned into a nightmare.

Supporters planned a protest before the match and despite twice taking the lead, Coventry came away 3-2 winners.

More supporters ran onto the pitch to protest post-match, and it marked Veljko Paunovic's final home match in charge.
