Match Facts
This will be the first league meeting between Lincoln City and Reading in the 21st century, with the two sides last facing in April 1999 (2-2 draw).
Reading have only kept one clean sheet in their last 14 league meetings with Lincoln City, although have only failed to score twice themselves in this time.
Lincoln City have failed to win any of their last three home league matches (D2 L1), although they did manage draws in each of their last two (1-1 v Port Vale & 2-2 v Barnsley).
Reading put an end to a 20-match winless streak away from home in the league last time out, recording a 2-1 win over Wycombe Wanderers. They are looking to win consecutive matches on the road for the first time since November 2021 in the Championship.
