Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

It may be an over exaggeration to say that we expect Allan Dybczak and Alex Revell to park the bus here, but we're certainly not expecting a deluge of goals as Reading and Stevenage go head-to-head. The statistics belowimply under 2.5 goals (i.e. 2 goals of fewer in total), and we're saying that looks like a strong prediction. With best odds of 1.67 available on under 2.5 goals and no obvious match winner in sight, that's the bet we'd advise you go for.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think Reading are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 39% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 2.50.
