Reading defeated Blackburn Rovers 1-0 away from home. The difference between the two teams was Josh Laurent’s goal in the 78th minute.
The setback delivered a serious blow to the Lancashire club’s promotion hopes. After two more games, they have plummeted to sixth place, just two points ahead of seventh-placed Middlesbrough.
Coventry City is currently in 11th place with 55 points from 38 games, putting them within striking distance of the top six.
Although their recent dismal record leaves a lot to be desired, the two sides still have a chance at promotion. Blackburn has been particularly dismal on the road and will need to enhance their game if they are to return to the Premier League after a decade out.
Goals have been hard to come by for both teams, therefore we’re picking the hosts to win by a single goal.
