Preview
Sports Mole previews Saturday's Championship clash between Reading and Coventry City, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

We said: Reading 1-1 Coventry City

Reading's form appears unsalvageable at this stage but they face a Coventry side also low on confidence, which should make for an interesting and perhaps nervy game. We think that it will end level, a result that will not really suit either team. Read more.
