1245 picks graded in public, misses included. The record
Oxford are unbeaten in five and sit third, Reading have won three of their last five and sit sixth, so this looks like a game with goals rather than a stalemate. The last two meetings both finished level, but that is a thin sample next to how both sides have been winning, not drawing, recently.
Every call is logged before kick-off and graded in public. The whole record is on the track record, misses included.
