Reading will be looking to see how they match up against a Premier League side when they host Crystal Palace at The Madejski Stadium on Saturday the 31st of July 2021.

Reading have had a diverse set of results in the three pre-season games they’ve played as of this date, with a 1-0 win against Lincoln City of League One, a 3-0 loss to Premier League West Ham United and a 1-1 draw with League One’s Charlton Athletic. They won’t be too disappointed with these results.

The Royals’ match against Crystal Palace is the last of their pre-season campaign before they face Stoke City on the first day of the English Football Championship season.

Crystal Palace have also played three friendlies this summer, with 1-0 wins over both Ipswich Town and Walsall and a 1-0 defeat to Stevenage Town of League 2, although they did suffer from an eighth-minute red card.

The Eagles have two other pre-season games remaining alongside the Reading clash, hosting Charlton Atheltic four days prior and fellow Premier League side Watford a week later. Crystal Palace are then set to face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on the opening day of the Premier League season.

The last time Reading and Crystal Palace locked horns was in a pre-season friendly in July 2018 when Crystal Palace won 0-4 away at The Madejski. They’ve played each other five times in the last 10 years with two wins for Palace, one win for Reading and two draws.

Reading v Crystal Palace Teams

Team selections for this match will certainly be interesting as Reading will feel they should be able to compete with Premier League teams like Crystal Palace. Crystal Palace will like to prove they deserve to be where they are by putting the lower league side in their place.

By the end of this upcoming league campaign, Reading boss Veljko Paunovic will be in his tenth year of management after spending several years coaching various Serbian youth teams before four years at Chicago Fire and a year and a half in his current position at Reading.

Newly appointed Crystal Palace manager and French football legend Patrick Vieira is certainly looking forward to his first season in charge of a Premier League side. It’ll be interesting to gauge what his plans are with the team throughout these pre-season matches.

Odds For Reading v Crystal Palace

Pre-season friendly odds are rarely released more than 24 hours before kickoff. With so many variables at play, including unknown team choices, bookmakers are hesitant to name their odds until they have a better understanding of the quality of each team.

Even in a competitive match odds would be fairly close in this clash, so with so many variables at play this game could go down to a theoretical coin flip. Can The Eagles win this fixture for the third time in a row? Or can The Royals make a statement as to what their intentions are this season?
