Most important weekend games

Championship – Doncaster Rovers v Reading

Reading-FC-v-Doncaster-1An important game for two different reasons in the Sky Bet Championship. Doncaster Rovers are looking to secure a spot in the Championship for next season, whereas Reading are looking to secure a play-off spot and fend off competition from teams such as Brighton and Nottingham Forest.

Rovers sit only one point above the drop zone and ideally need to win both their remaining games to secure their place in the same division next season. However, 22nd placed Blackpool are looking to drop the teams above them into the relegation zone and at the same time secure safety in the Championship.

Paul Dickov’s men go into the home tie on the back of losing four of their last five games, and only managing to draw the other one. Their last victory was way back on the 29th of March when they picked up a 2-1 win away from home at Leeds United.

The Royals’ form has been inconsistent of late, picking up four wins out of their last ten whilst drawing, and losing, three. With only two wins in April, Nigel Adkins’ men will be looking to make it three against a struggling South Yorkshire side.
