Match facts
Reading lost both league matches against Leeds last season, losing 1-0 under Paul Clement in November 2018 and 3-0 in March 2019 under Jose Manuel Gomes.
Leeds are looking to win consecutive away league visits to Reading for the first time.
Reading have not won four consecutive home league games since April 2017 under Jaap Stam.
Leeds United are looking to win four consecutive league matches for the first time since a run of seven in a row in November and December 2018.
Reading's top scorers in the Championship this season are Ovie Ejaria and George Puscas (three each), making them the lowest top-scorers at all Championship clubs this season.
Patrick Bamford has scored in seven away league matches for Leeds and ended on the winning side in all seven, including their 2-1 win at Luton last time out.
So Reading in 18th place looking to move improve after their defeat at the weekend and Leeds in 2nd place looking to cement their position, another tough game but i reckon we can grab the away points again courtesy of Bamford and Harrison with Pablo getting the 3rd in a 1-3 Win

Agree thought phillips was appalling
Like he was trying too hard to impress after abit of talk about England

My only criticism was not getting the ball out wide enough. Tried too many times to go frontal route and we lack the strength to force through the middle.

Haven't we all said again, and again, that a team that grinds out results in games like this, will go up?
Leeds are four points better off after 18 games this season, compared to last season.
Looks good.

I think it's underestimated how hard it is to break down a team with 10 behind the ball. They set so deep. Well deserved win in the end.
Alioski changed the game, needed some extra width. This current formation is very narrow, prefer having an actual left back in the side to overlap with Harrison

Phillips passing was off but he made a number of telling tackle, one near the end in the box was a beauty

Was very confused about where Alioski was playing but it did seem to work

Alioski seemed to be everywhere

90% of the time he plays for us, haven't got a clue where Alioski is supposed to be playing, think he doesn't even know.
I am so much happier when Gianni is playing.

Nice to wake up top of the league, not sure how that will last!
LIW I woke two babies up, our lass wasn't happy. I tried to contain it, but how can you in the 87th minute?
