It’s a cold and wet Tuesday night and the Premier League fixture computer has thrown out this fixture which consists of the 3^rd worst home team against the 2^nd worst away team. Excited? I’m thinking it could be a cracker.

Aston Villa are 42/41 with Betfair for the win, the draw is 13/5 with Bet Victor and a Reading win is 31/10 again with Bet Victor.

Villa are on the back of 3 games without a win, admittedly these 3 games have been against Arsenal, Man City and Man Utd so maybe they can be excused especially after their encouraging performance and draw against the Gunners. However they have been struggling for goals of late drawing a blank in 4 of their last 7. On a plus the form of Andreas Weimann is a big bonus for Paul Lambert and with the pace of Agbonlahor and the quality of Benteke I fancy Villa scoring in this fixture.

Reading come into this game on the back of a heartbreaking 92^nd minute goal which saw them lose their 3 game unbeaten run against Wigan. Reading are yet to win away but always seem capable to get a goal as they have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games. They like to spread their goals around and record signing Pogrebnyak hasn’t scored in 7 games and I’d say a player of his quality is long overdue.
