Looking for 3 in a row.

Blackpool make the trip down to Berkshire after 2 straight wins, and are unlikely to make any changes from the team that beat Charlton. 4 in 2 man Liam Dickinson will probably start up front with Ben Burgess, as Blackpool look to hold off the irresistible attacking force that is the Royals.

Blackpool, having just won two on the spin, including an impressive win at Plymouth, are likely to be unchanged from the weekend against Charlton. Despite their opponents averaging nearly 2 goals a game, Blackpool are likely to retain their 4-4-2 formation that kept it's first clean sheet since mid-October. However, there may be a change to the bench, as finally, after months of doubts, the forgotten man, Daniel Nardiello, is likely to find a spot on the bench after managing to shake off the niggling hamstring injury that has kept him out of the team for 4 months, and has only allowed him to play a total of 15 minutes for the club.

Likely Line Up:

Rachubka

Barker Edwards Evatt Martin

Hammill Hendrie Southern Reid

Dickinson Burgess

Subs: Baptiste, Fox, Taylor-Fletcher, Gow, Nardiello

Reading have been regarded from the beginning of the season as one of the favorites for promotion. With their attacking prowess of Kevin Doyle and Stephen and Noel Hunt at their disposal, the fact that they have sprung goals at every opportunity is no suprise. They will be waiting to hear from the FA about winger Jimmy Kebe, and whether he will be allowed to play for Steve Coppell's men after he was sent off in the 1-0 win at Barnsley on Saturday.

Danger Man: Kevin Doyle-The Irishman is one of the best players outside the Premiership, and is one of the best finishers in the county. Supplied by Noel and Stephen Hunt, Doyle has already racked up 15 goals this season, 11 more than Pool top scorer Ben Burgess.

Likely Line-Up:

Hahnemann,

Rosenior Duberry Ingimarsson Armstrong

Long Cisse Harper Stephen Hunt

Doyle Noel Hunt

Pool make the trip to Berkshire.
