The Tilehurst End Prediction League 17/18: Matchday 17 - Bolton Wanderers (A)

Reckon that Reading can bounce back from Saturday’s defeat with a win at the Macron Stadium?

Considering that Wolves topped the table when they visited the Madejski Stadium at the weekend, there were a fair few optimistic predictions for the game from home fans. But alas, it was not to be and Nuno Espirito Santo’s ran out 2-0 winners. A total of six people predicted defeat, with three - Glorygerbil, The Inspector and ShiplakeAl - getting the scoreline spot on. No one guessed that Ivan Cavaleiro would score the game’s first goal. The updated leaderboard is below.

After facing a side at the Championship’s summit, Reading now meet with a side at the wrong end of the table, travelling to 23rd place Bolton tonight. Despite their lowly position, Phil Parkinson’s are unbeaten in their last six league games. All you have to do is guess the score of the game and say who you think will score the first goal in the comments below. A correct score earns two points, a correct result earns one point as does a correct first goalscorer.

To get the ball rolling, I think the score will be 1-0 to Reading, with Sone Aluko being the first goalscorer.

Good luck!
