Reading FC's next three games are vs Rotherham, Cardiff and Blackpool
ByJonathan Low
Reading FC's next three games are all against sides below them in the Championship table and start on Tuesday night at home to Rotherham United
The Royals host Rotherham United at home on Tuesday night (8pm) before travelling to the Cardiff City Stadium on Friday night (8pm). They then welcome Blackpool to Berkshire on Saturday week.
Paul Ince's side currently sit in 18th place in the Championship standings, with Rothehram two places below them, Cardiff three and Blackpool at the bottom.
Reading manager, Paul Ince, said, "We have three games now against Rotherham, Cardiff and Blackpool where we can pick up some points. Nothing has really changed in the table, that's stayed the same. We just have an opportunity now where we can pick up some points.
"They're all important games. We've lost one and drawn two and lost two and drawn one [in the league] so it will be nice if we can pick up a win because our home form has been very good.
"But Rotherham have been to Watford and drawn so they are no pushovers. They went to Blackpool on Saturday and drew too. So it's a game where we go again. It's tough for us having gone up to Sunderland, then playing Rotherham and then going up to Cardiff - they [the EFL] are not doing us any favours, are they? But as far as I am concerned, it was a very good performance from the boys at Sunderland."

We really need to pick up points at Birmingham City on Tuesday and again versus Reading on Friday night in order to put pressure on those still beneath us
Reading are sliding and can easily be dragged into the Championship relegation dog-fight but on their day, they are a capable team and will have an influence on who are in the bottom 3 come a week Saturday, if not before; we really need to make sure it's not us as one of them...!
