Reading 2026/27 League One Preview

Reading have the most watchable attack in the division and one of its least reliable defences. Sixteen goals in seven games have come with nine conceded, a 5-0 win over Mansfield and a 3-1 defeat of Blackpool sitting alongside a 4-3 opening-day loss at home to Luton.

Jack Marriott is the story: eight goals already, more than double anyone else at the club. Around him Kyreece Lisbie has four assists and 14 chances created, Lewis Wing runs the set pieces with 23 corners and two direct free-kicks, and Joel Pereira has three clean sheets to his name despite the chaos in front of him.

Leam Richardson took Reading to 12th and 63 points last season and has clearly prioritised the forward line since. If Marriott stays fit and the back four settles, this is a side with the firepower to climb a good deal higher than ninth.

Reading most used starting XI 2026/27 in a 4-2-3-1: Pereira; Godwin-Malife, O'Connor, Ward, Roberts; Wing, Rinomhota; Lisbie, Earthy, Lane; Marriott

Reading’s set-piece specialists

  • Penalties: Jack Marriott
  • Free-Kicks: Lewis Wing
  • Corners: Lewis Wing, Paddy Lane

Lewis Wing has taken 23 of Reading’s corners to Paddy Lane’s 7. Lewis Wing has had two of the direct free-kicks. Reading are yet to be awarded a penalty, so the taker is unproven – Jack Marriott, their leading scorer, is the likeliest candidate.
