Reading prepare to entertain Leicester City at Madejski Stadium on Wednesday evening, hoping to break their duck against the visitors. There have only been 2 against the opposition from the 6 matches played by the Royals.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Madejski Stadium was less than a year ago, in February 2005, when they played out a goalless draw in a Championship match.
