The Royals make one change

Garath McCleary returns to Reading’s starting eleven for this afternoon’s Championship clash against Norwich City at the Madejski Stadium.

The winger, who replaces Jake Taylor in midfield, missed the Boxing Day clash at Brighton after picking up a minor injury in training on Christmas day.

On the bench, Danny Guthrie makes his return to the squad after recovering from a calf injury and Jamie Mackie also returns to the 18 after overcoming a hamstring problem.

Reading: Federici, Gunter, Hector, Pearce (c), Obita, McCleary, Norwood, Williams, Robson-Kanu, Cox, Murray.
Subs: Andersen, Cummings, Cooper, Kelly, Guthrie, Mackie, Blackman.

Norwich: Ruddy, Whittaker, Martin (c), Bennett, Olsson, Howson, O'Neil, Tettey, Johnson, Hooper, Jerome.
Subs: Rudd, Turner, Grabban, Lafferty, Hoolahan, Miquel, Redmond.
