Reading vs Manchester City
Football : English Premier League
Tuesday 14th May 2013 – Kickoff time 20:00

Match Preview :

It waits to be seen how Manchester City will perform after the news has been announced that Roberto Mancini has been sacked as their manager. Both teams comes into this match with nothing much to play for. Reading has been relegated while Manchester City is already assured of a Champions League spot but will try to keep their second place from Chelsea.

Manchester City were beaten in the FA Cup Final last Saturday against Wigan and their confidence and spirits could be low coming into this match, especially since the news that Mancini will no longer be at the club next season.

Mancini's task will be to get them to finish second, after one of the biggest shocks in the FA Cup saw his side going down 1-0 and now they will finish the season empty handed but just hope for a second place finishing in the League.

At the moment, City are currently three points clear of Chelsea but Benitez side have a better goal difference so still have an outside chance of snatching second place on the final day.

When they last met, Manchester City won at home thanks to Gareth Barry's 93rd-minute winner. But without much motivation and Mancini has been sacked, do't be surprised if the game ends in a draw.

Team News :

Reading Team News :
Reading boss Nigel Adkins has no fresh injuries and is likely to keep faith in the side that beat Fulham 4-2 last weekend.

Manchester City Team News :
It is expected Mancini will make changes for this match when they take on Reading with the side that last saw off West Bromwich Albion to take to the field.
