‘Battered’ – Sky Sports pundit predicts Leeds v Reading clash

David Prutton thinks that Reading can get something out of a game against a Leeds side that has been “battered” in its past two games.

Writing in his column for Sky Sports, Prutton claims that despite not winning in their last six games, Reading can secure a point against a Leeds side whose season has fallen apart.

“This is a good chance for them, however, against a Leeds side who have been battered twice in the last seven days and will be low on confidence. Score draw for me.”

Prutton thinks the score will be 1-1 when the two sides meet on Saturday afternoon.

Football Insider verdict:

Reading would be the happier side with this result. They might only be five places below Leeds but there’s a 14-point gap and they’re only five points above the relegation zone. Things haven’t gone brilliantly for Leeds since new manager Paul Heckingbottom took over and he might consider a point away acceptable but the fans will be looking for a win. With pressure on both sides a 1-1 draw isn’t such a bad shout.
