Cheltenham Town are on the 20th line of the League Two standings. The club is four points ahead of the relegation zone. The club is literally two wins short of the playoff zone, but the current results are unlikely to allow the Reds to swing for promotion.
Reading are 16th in the League One standings. The Blues are seven points ahead of the relegation zone. The club is unlikely to make it to the Championship. But in the English League Trophy, the team got three points, and one more win could allow the club to qualify for the playoffs.
Teams do not sit in defense at all, willingly running forward in search of their chances. Cheltenham Town have exchanged goals with their opponents in four of their last five matches, while Reading in their last four matches.
