After their unsuccessful start to the new season, Reading quickly found the right rhythm and recorded two crushing victories. Just when everything seemed fine, they suffered a loss last week against Cambridge. Now Reading hosts the newly promoted Notts County from the lower tier, who, however, have already shown at the beginning of the season that they will not be a team to be underestimated this campaign.
Notts County is doing well defensivelyIn their first five matches of the new season, Notts County did not suffer a single loss, although four of those matches ended in draws. The defeat came just last week and it was minimal. Notts County is performing quite well defensively; the team is organized and stable, and it is no coincidence that in seven of their last nine matches, there have been under 2.5 goals.
Prediction: Under 3.5 goalsReading has seen more high-scoring clashes, but I believe that if Notts County sits back, which is most likely to happen, it will be extremely difficult for Reading to find a way to the net. Under 2.5 goals seems like a reasonable prediction, and with even greater certainty, the bar can be raised to under 3.5 goals.
