Head-to-head

Reading’s last league win against Chelsea was 3-1 at home in the old Division Two in March 1930.

They have lost the five league games played since then – including a 4-2 defeat at Stamford Bridge earlier in the season.

In total, the Royals have won just three times against Chelsea in 19 matches in all competitions – in 1926, 1930 and the first leg of a League Cup tie in 1987.

Reading

This is Reading’s 100th Premier League match. They have won 30, drawn 20 and lost 49.

They have managed just three clean sheets this season, the lowest in the top-flight along with Wigan. Only the Latics (25) have conceded more goals at home than the Royals (21).

Reading have used 26 players in the Premier League this season – only Tottenham, with 27, have used more.

Chelsea

Rafael Benitez’s team have won their last four away matches in the league. The last time they won five in a row was between April and September 2009.

They are the only team along with Wigan to have won more points away than they have done at home this season.

Frank Lampard is two goals short of becoming the first player in Premier League history to score at least 10 goals in 10 consecutive Premier League seasons.
