After breaking out of a winless run with a 2-1 win at home over Bolton, the Royals are off to The City Ground to face Nottingham Forest. With the Royals sitting 7th in the Championship Table on 27 points and just one point out of a playoff spot, some might consider them favorites over the host, who are coming off an injury-time loss to a 10-man Brentford side and sitting 18th in the Table. But only 2 points out of the drop zone, the Forest will be as determined to take the three points on the day as the Royals. Can the Africa Violet wash out the Reds and bring those three points back with them? Make your prediction, and best of luck to you and the Royals on Saturday!

Points System

10 points - correct result e.g. you predict Nottingham Forest 1-3 Reading and the result is Forest 1-3 Reading.
7 points - correct outcome with correct goal difference e.g. you predict Forest 1-3 Reading and the result is Forest 0-2 Reading.
5 points - correct outcome with incorrect goal difference e.g. you predict Forest 1-3 Reading and the result is Forest 2-3 Reading
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:

5 points - correct half-time score
2 points - correct goalscorers, for each goalscorer predicted that does indeed score (NOTE: this season you get points for correctly predicting the goalscorers of only Reading FC. You only get the points if Reading score the same amount of goals as you predicted or more.)
5 points - correctly predicting the 'bonus question' within the specified tolerance. If one person comes closest to the actual value, that person will receive 7 points, but if two or more are both equally close, only the 5 points will be awarded.

Please put the score in this format:

Forest 1-3 Reading (HT: 0-2) [Home x-y Away format]
Williams
Blackman
Sa

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

How many total shots (not just shots on target) will Reading and Forest have (total, both clubs), according to the BBC stats? Credit will be given for a prediction within three of the sum of posted BBC counts.

Good luck to each predictor and to the Royals!
