4 months after their last match in League One, Barnsley and Reading meet again. In their last face-off, Barnsley secured a 2-4 win. Barnsley is on a solid streak, securing wins against Huddersfield and Rotherham, their next goal is to extend their streak with a victory over Reading. However, their defense has shown cracks, conceding goals in their last ten home matches in a row. Barnsley have an important match to navigate before facing Reading though, taking on Stevenage in League One, and how they perform in this game could set the tone for their encounter with Reading.

Reading, in contrast to their opponent's recent successes, are heading into this match following a defeat to Swindon Town in the EFL Trophy last Tuesday. Their upcoming schedule leading up to Barnsley features Northampton in League One, a game that could impact their momentum heading into the match against Barnsley. Their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have allowed goals in six consecutive away matches.

Adam Phillips and Davis Keillor-Dunn have been pivotal for Barnsley’s attack, with Conor Hourihane at the helm, combining to deliver important goals and assists. Keillor-Dunn has already scored four goals in League One this season, with Phillips topping their assist tally in the competition with two. Adding further support are Caylan Vickers, David McGoldrick and Luca Connell, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.

Meanwhile, Reading’s leading scorer Andre Garcia and Lewis Wing have played significant roles in the team’s attack, crafted under Noel Hunt’s leadership, each providing decisive moments in their offensive play. In League One, Wing has been Reading’s standout scorer with two goals, as Abrefa continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with two assists.
