Reading secured promotion to the Premier League with a 1-0 victory over Nottingham Forest on Tuesday, and they will be desperate to wrap up the title with victory over Crystal Palace this weekend.
The home side currently sit three points clear at the top of the Championship, and the club’s players were keen to reiterate their desire to claim the title following their elevation into England’s top division.
As expected, Reading are short odds with most bookmakers to secure the win, with 2/5 with BetFred the choice if this bet is the one for you in this round of Championship football betting.
Palace can be backed at the generous odds of 8/1 with 888sport, but it is really difficult to make a case for the London club, seeing as how their away form has been inconsistent all season – and the fact that they are up against the best side in the league.
It is also difficult for me to push the draw, although with odds of 16/5 at Sportingbet, there is certainly value in backing this particular scoreline.
For me, however, there is only going to be one winner, and I like the look of 3-1 to Reading at 12/1 with SkyBet. With the team so full of confidence, there is also real value in choosing 4-0 to the home side, which can be backed at 16/1 with 888sport.
