We said: Reading 1-1 Swansea City

With both sides coming into this game on the back of some strong form, we can see them cancelling each other out in an even encounter on Monday. Reading do not need to push for the win thanks to a healthy cushion above the relegation zone, so they are likely to settle for a point, whilst the visitors are expected to be rotated significantly, suggesting that they are not desperately pushing for the playoff places.
