Match announcement
Reading
EnglandCurrent form
Reading currently represents the third strongest division of England, where before the start of the season they were considered one of the contenders for promotion. In the first round, Noel Hunt team was not particularly stable and currently occupies only the sixth line in the table with 41 points. The Royals are already 10 points behind second-placed Wycombe - even taking into account the game in reserve, it will be almost impossible to make up such a handicap. In the last round, Reading drew 0-0 with Charlton, thus breaking a series of three victories in a row.

3.45Tip and bets
Burnley are undoubtedly the favourites of the match – the visitors have a huge advantage in class and the Clarets are in excellent form. It is obvious that the Burnley coach will use a certain rotation, but it is unlikely to be so large-scale as to seriously weaken the team, Reading defence will face a difficult test. At home, the Royals are almost flawless, they play traditionally openly and score a lot – an exchange of goals is almost inevitable.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. Betting Tip - both will score . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.89
Bet on the outcome
Burnley will definitely be motivated and full of desire to get through to the next round of the Cup, especially since the level of the opponent allows them to set maximum goals. Redin is very strong at home, but the hosts are significantly inferior to the opponent in class and for this reason, it will be very difficult, if not impossible, to give a serious fight, and even more so, to fight for a ticket to the 1/16 finals. Burnley is capable of deciding everything in regular time and confidently moving on.
Bet - Asian handicap (-1) on Burnley. This bet is offered for 1.85
Bet on corners
Burnley are the favourites and will probably spend most of the match attacking – the visitors should win confidently on corners.
Bet - Asian handicap (-2) on corners at Burnley. This bet is offered for 1.75
