We said: Rotherham United 2-1 Reading

 Rotherham United will know that if they are to stand a chance of avoiding relegation this time around, they must be particularly resolute at home, and we see them grinding out an important first win at the weekend. Reading arrive with a depleted squad, and Warne's men will see the contest as a good chance to take all three points and get off to a strong start. Read more.
