Derby County - Reading I have to admit that Derby was one of the disappointments of the previous game when I personally trusted her for a possible loss in Ellen Rhode against Leeds. And OK, a defeat at the head of one of the top teams in the category may not be tragic, but its appearance was however unacceptably unacceptable and only one team claiming a rise did not recall.
The crazy double in Norwich is virtually the only good bracket - always at the championship level - for Derby as it generally does not win very much in recent times. For the reason, it is enough to note that this victory is the only one to show in the last six, with the defense being the Achilles heel, accepting goals with great ease. It is also worth noting that at home it ignores the victory in the last four (all draws, three for the championship plus the Cup with Southampton) while the heavy schedule that has caused a lot of fatigue continued for itself and within the week, having the demanding replay for the FA Cup with Southampton away from home last Wednesday night.
Obviously, we owe it to her the very important success of qualifying for an opponent from the top level, even by overthrowing the original against 2-0 and sending the game to prolongation before finally appearing more calm in the penalty shootout, on the other hand I do not exclude this over-effort to physically affect her and to appear relatively "empty", as we say. It will not be the first one (nor, of course, the last one) and we do not even have to go too far, as the most recent examples are still fresh. From a great victory-qualification on Leicester, for example, Newport, lost the next few days later for the championship overturned by Kro. From a terrible overturning and qualifying on Fulham, Oldham, was forced to head 0-0 with Forest Green, in a match that for the most part ... he was sitting and just had the chance to see luck with the part that did not accept a goal in many and classic opponents' chances.
All of the above I think they make the showdown with Reading at least ... insidious and much more when the latter comes from a very significant victory-breath against Nottingham, first under the instructions of José Gomez. This victory can come after a good quality game, but it is one of those that, as we say, is psychologically addictive (just as important for Gomez himself, being his first with his new team), and his comfort to prepare for the whole week without any racing obligations (as opposed to Derby, as I mentioned above), I estimate that they are increasing their chances of winning at Paridon Park. In fact, speaking about Praid Park, it would not be an exaggeration to say that based on recent history, it can be considered ... country as Reading counts eight victories in its last twelve visits (three in the last five).
A small double bet, then, which goalbet offers at 5,53.
