Match Facts
This will be the first ever Football League meeting between Reading and Fleetwood Town; the Cod Army will be the Royals’ 109th different Football League opponent.
Fleetwood Town have drawn each of the last four occasions they have faced a side in the Football League for a very first time, doing so against Cambridge United (Sep 2021), Derby County (Aug 2022), Forest Green (Oct 2022), and Carlisle United (Aug 2023).
Reading have only lost one of their last 10 home league games (W3 D6), a 0-1 defeat to Peterborough in August.
After their 2-0 win at Cheltenham, Fleetwood Town are looking for back-to-back away wins in League One for the first time since October 2022.
