Shrewsbury has strengthened towards relegation and soon it seems like in theory this will be confirmed. The team continues to be in last place and has forgotten what a victory is. In the last 11 matches, they have not had a win, with three draws and eight losses. In their last five home games, Shrewsbury has not even scored a goal, losing four of them, and the other five were under 2.5 goals.
Reading is seventh and continues to fight for a place in the top 6. They lost 0:3 to Blackpool in their last visit, but won 1:0 at home against third-placed Wycombe in the last round. So in their last 13 matches, Reading has only one loss. Reading rarely wins away and has done so only four times so far, but they seem to have a good chance to achieve a new victory away against the last team in the table.
Prediction: win for Reading, under 2.5 goalsAlthough Reading does not often win away, I think they will do it here. Their form is generally much better than Shrewsbury's and they need points in the battle for the top 6, while the hosts' relegation seems to be a matter of time. Shrewsbury has struggled to even score a goal lately and under 2.5 goals is my second suggestion for the match.
