Stoke City surprised everyone as they sealed all three points when they defeated Blackburn by 3-2. Earlier, they were on a five-game winning streak in the league. Now, they will take on Reading at Ewood Park.
At the same time, Reading lost their 18th game of the season and are currently in the middle of the table. They have one of the worst away forms in the league as they have lost their last six away games in all competitions.
The visitors have won four of the last five head-to-head matches. These two teams last met back in August and Reading scored three goals in that game. In the last three years, Blackburn have won only one game against this opposition. This drought is likely going to end this time as the host are in excellent unbeaten form at Ewood Park.

斯托克城出乎所有人的意料，他们以3-2击败布莱克本，拿到了三分。早些时候，他们在联盟中取得了五连胜。现在，他们将在埃伍德公园迎战雷丁队。
与此同时，雷丁本赛季输掉了第18场比赛，目前处于积分榜的中间位置。他们是联赛中最糟糕的客场状态之一，因为他们在所有赛事中都输掉了最近的6场客场比赛。
客队在过去五场正面交锋中赢了四场。这两支球队上一次交锋是在8月份，雷丁在那场比赛中进了3球。在过去的三年里，布莱克本只赢了一场比赛。这一次的干旱很可能会结束，因为东道主在埃伍德公园保持着出色的不败状态。
