Reading welcome Ipswich Town to the Madejski Stadium on Friday night in front of the live Sky TV cameras (8pm kick-off). 

Reading began the season with a defeat at Birmingham City, drawing their next three before recording their first victory of the campaign with a 3-1 win over Brentford at Griffin Park before the international break.

Ipswich started with a 2-2 draw against Brentford before winning three on the bounce with wins over Sheffield Wednesday, Burnley and Preston, but that run ended with a 3-2 home defeat to high-flying Brighton & Hove Albion at Portman Road just before the break.

Reading have a good record against the Tractor Boys with winning seven of their last eight meetings, while the visitors have won just once in their last 10 trips to the Madejski Stadium.
