MATCHWATCH : Burnley (h) sponsored by Andre Bikey's shirt

by Sutekh » 13 Feb 2016 12:56

TEAM NEWS READING

Vydra, HRK and Williams are all doubts (hamstrings). Of the three HRK is most likely to play but late fitness tests will decide finally.

Aaron Tshibola definitely out having had surgery last week and it is not known when he will return.

TEAM NEWS BURNLEY

Burnley are without midfielder Dean Marney and long term absentees Ashley Barnes & Lukas Jutkiewicz.

Their new signing from Brentford, James Tarkowski, is ready but has not been able to dislodge Michael Keane or Ben Mee from the centre of defence.

Unfortunately both Vokes and Gray are available not to mention George Boyd :(

(UN)LIKELY LINE-UPS

Reading

Al-Habsi, Gunter, Cooper, McShane, Obita, Norwood, John, Robson-Kanu, Quinn, Piazon, Kermorgant.

Burnley

Heaton, Lowton, Keane, Arfield, Mee, Jones, Barton, Ward, Boyd, Vokes, Gray.

THE REFEREE

Nottinghamshire's James Adcock



He's given 52 yellows so far this season but no reds in 20 previous games.

His previous Championship appointment was Sheffield Wednesday's 2-1 win at Birmingham City last Saturday.

Our history with Mr Adcock

28 Sep 2013 > Reading 2-0 Birmingham City
22 Apr 2014 > Reading 2-0 Middlesbrough
28 Sep 2014 > Reading 3-3 Wolverhampton Wanderers
24 Feb 2015 > Huddersfield Town 3-0 Reading

Outcome?

To be honest given the disjointed crap we're currently throwing up (literally) in the league a draw would be a good result.

Larry_Parnell Team: Al-Habsi, Gunter, Obita, Cooper, McShane (c), Hector, Norwood, Quinn, Piazon, Robson-Kanu, Kermorgant.

Subs: Bond, Evans, Rakels, McCleary, Ferdinand, John, Barrett.

Assume Hec in midfield, Quinn left and Piazon in the hole.

Not much going forward potentially, and few goals. But should make Burnley work to score.

After his excellent performance against Wolves U18s, it's good to see Josh Barrett making the bench today. He looked really good in that Youth Cup match, always in the right place at the right time.

Not too bad so far. Gray fluffed a great chance 3 minutes in otherwise it's even. Norwood is a little off the boil, Quinn and HRK are playing well. Piazon needs to move more. Very lenient ref. I can't believe Gray got away with a warning after kicking out at Hector.

I thought that was a straight red ref bottled it
