Reading vs Hull City Prediction and Betting Tips | March 18th 2023

Reading will host Hull City at the Select Car Leasing Stadium on Saturday in another round of the Championship campaign.

The home team have endured a difficult run of results in the league since the turn of the year, although they remain hopeful of survival. They were beaten 2-1 by Blackburn Rovers last time out and could have no complaints after being second best for much of the game before a late red card to Mamadou Loum sealed their defeat.

Reading sit 16th in the Championship standings with 44 points picked so far and will be hopeful of adding to that tally come Saturday.

Hull have had mixed results in the league of late and currently find themselves in the bottom half of the table. They were beaten 3-1 by league leaders Burnley in their last league outing and were already three goals down before substitute Ozan Tufan netted a late consolation goal.

The visitors have picked up 46 points from 37 games this season and sit 15th in the league table. They will be looking to shake off their latest results and return to winning ways this weekend.
