Sports Mole previews the Championship contest between Reading and Watford.

Reading play host to Watford in the Championship this weekend in an anticipated clash between two promotion favourites.

The hosts are unbeaten in the league this season with a win and a draw on the board, while the Hornets going into the match off the back of a 6-1 whipping of Bournemouth.

Royals manager Nigel Adkins has no fresh injury concerns ahead of the game, with winger Jimmy Kebe pushing for a place in the squad following an injury layoff.

Watford boss Gianfranco Zola is unlikely to tamper with his starting XI after last weekend's resounding win, but new loan signing Essaid Belkalem feature in some capacity.

Advance ticket sales indicate that the match will take place in front of more than 20,000 supporters.
