Reading boss Brendan Rodgers is set to name an unchanged side when fellow strugglers Ipswich become the latest side to attempt to take points from the Madejski Stadium.

The Royals last won at home in January - some 16 games ago - but they did impressively beat Coventry 3-1 at the Ricoh Arena last weekend.

Grzegorz Rasiak scored twice in that win and will again partner Simon Church, while Jimmy Kebe could return to the squad.

The Mali international missed last weekend's game with a groin problem but is back in training and should be involved.

Forward Noel Hunt had surgery on his knee injury last week and is expected to be out for some time, while left-back Chris Armstrong is still recovering from knee surgery of his own.

Full-back Julian Kelly (shoulder) remains the only other injury concern for Rodgers.
