Check out our match prediction for the FA Cup First Round at the Select Car Leasing Stadium on Saturday, where League One’s Reading hosts League Two’s Fleetwood Town. Will the Royals be too strong for the Cod Army, or can Fleetwood pull off an upset?
Reading, managed by Ruben Selles, has shown improvement, especially at home with six wins from seven matches. However, they recently suffered a 4-1 defeat to Stockport after a solid 2-1 win at Exeter and a 1-0 victory over Bristol Rovers.
Fleetwood Town has a better away record, earning 11 of their 18 points on the road, but they’re winless in their last five games, drawing three and losing two. Their recent results include a 0-0 draw with Newport and a 2-2 draw against Salford City.
