Reading v Burnley : FA Cup match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sat 11th Jan, 15:00 BST, Madejski Stadium, Reading

the Madejski Stadium plays host on Saturday afternoon, as Rubén Sellés Salvador's Reading host Scott Parker's Burnley in the FA Cup. FA Cup statistics are the most important part of the predictions you'll find below, with head to head (H2H) history included too. There's so much to explore, with data visualisations and odds available for seventeen major betting markets using the tabs.


Best Tip: Burnley to win

The stands should be full at Madejski Stadium on Saturday afternoon but, unfortunately, we predict the majority of those in attendance will be leaving the place 90 minutes later rather less happy than they arrived. The stats below, including head-to-head (H2H) records and recent form, are all pointing towards an away win in the win / draw / win market, with visitors Burnley getting the better of hosts Reading. An inquest will follow for home boss Rubén Sellés Salvador but, in the meantime, we'd strongly recommend making the most of best bookmaker odds of 1.55 to back the away win.

Goal Statistics

Burnley's defensive record is to be admired, Scott Parker's men having conceded 1 or less in 26 consecutive FA Cup games. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.1 for Reading makes sense in this context.
