HALF-TIMEpublished at 45+4 mins
Reading 0-0 Bristol City
Reading have edged this half. Off they all go for a breather. Hopefully we'll see some goals after the break!
CLOSE!published at 45 mins
Reading 0-0 Bristol City
Just as we enter four minutes of added time at the end of this half, Reading's Lucas Joao cuts in from the left and lashes an effort at goal from just outside the box, but it rises enough to fizz just over the bar. It looks like Daniel Bentley got a little touch on it. Good save.

Leon Legge (9 mins)
Our first EFL goal of the afternoon comes in the 13:00 GMT kick-off in League Two where Leon Legge has headed Port Vale in front from a corner.
The O's thought they had cleared the ball off the line, but the goal is given on the say-so of the assistant referee.

GOOD SAVE!published at 35 mins
Reading 0-0 Bristol City
Here's the best chance of the game so far, as Daniel Bentley pulls off a smart stop to Yakou Meite's acrobatic overhead effort. Twisting with his back to goal, just inside the box, Meite's bouncing low shot needing a good diving save.

Reading lost both of their past two home Championship games 3-0, but they haven't really been tested by Bristol City at the back yet.

Reading's Liam Moore is down receiving some treatment on the field, so everybody goes for a quick drink.
It looks like Moore will be able to carry on.

Image source, PA MediaHalfway through the first half, it's not been a classic.
It's been a physical battle. Reading are pressing with intensity. The visitors haven't been out of the own half very much, to be honest.

Daniel Bentley does well to come out and punch Michael Olise's cross away, with Reading starting to get on top a little bit.
The hosts head over the bar from the corner that follows.

Theo: Reading vs Bristol City is a big family divider for us - my sister and I are backing the Royals, but my dad, granddad and uncle are supporting City. I hope Christmas won’t be too awkward...
We hope so too, Theo.

Bristol City could - temporarily at least - go top of the Championship, if they win convincingly here today.
It's been pretty even so far.
