Match Facts

  • After producing a league double over Birmingham City during the 2021-22 season, Reading have since failed to win any of their last three against the Blues (D2 L1).

  • Birmingham City have lost just one of their last nine away league games against Reading (W5 D3), keeping five clean sheets during that time.

  • Reading have won nine of their last 12 home league games (D1 L2), failing to score in just one of those matches.

  • Birmingham are unbeaten across their last 15 league games (W12 D3), the Blues’ longest run in the same season since a 20 match run between September 1994 and January 1995 also in the third tier.
