Our Royals have a challenge, to bounce back from a spirited but just less than triumphant performance at Wembley in the FA Cup Semi-Finals and put in a winning effort against Birmingham City at Madejski Stadium on Wednesday evening. Birmingham City sit 5 places and 7 points above Reading in the Championship Table and are coming off a 1-0 defeat away at current Table-leading Watford. The Blues away form has been poor, with one draw and 5 defeats in their last 6 away matches, while the Royals have a win, 2 draws and 3 losses in their last 6 home Championship matches. Looking at the last 6 home matches at the Mad Stad, add a FA Cup win and drop a loss. How do you predict this match will end?

Points System

10 points - correct result e.g. you predict Reading 3-1 Wolves and the result is Reading 3-1 Wolves
8 points - correct draw e.g. you predict Reading 1-1 Wolves and the result is Reading 2-2 Wolves
7 points - correct outcome with correct goal difference e.g. you predict Reading 1-0 Wolves and the result is Reading 2-1 Wolves
5 points - correct outcome with incorrect goal difference e.g. you predict Reading 3-1 Wolves and the result is Reading 1-0 Wolves
1 point - if you get the prediction completely wrong, you still get one point for taking part!

Bonus Points

You get bonus points for three things:

2 points - correct half-time score
5 points - correct goalscorer (NOTE: this season you get points for correctly predicting the goalscorers of both Reading AND their opposition. You only get the points if the team score the same amount of goals as you predicted or more. This prevents prediction of ridiculous scorelines for more points.)
5 points - correctly predicting the 'bonus question'.

Please put the score in this format:

Reading 3-2 Wolves (HT: 1-0)
Hector
Taylor
Murray
Henry
Evans

...followed by your answer to the 'bonus question'...

Match bonus question is: what will be the average time for all goals scored by Reading in this match, according to the final BBC stats? Credit will be given for answers not more than 5 minutes (tighter limit here!) away from the average time for all Reading goals as posted by the BBC. If you expect that the match will go without a Reading goal (~shudder~), please submit 0:00 as your guess for this question. Note that the BBC do post in their play-by-play the actual times of goals in added time (example, 90+2:15), and that is the time to be used for the average (in the example, 92:15 would be used), so the average could possibly be above 90 minutes.

Good luck with your predictions, good luck to the Royals and happy 139th anniversary for Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake" ballet!

Not pretty, but the work gets done, we're safe!
Scorer: Chalobah on 71 mins, so that's the average time!
