Was probably the most likely of our games to be picked out of that batch of fixtures and is likely to be our highest demand away match.
Sky have chosen the much more appropriate matches of Cardiff vs Lincoln and Huddersfield vs Rotherham for their League One games that day.
Worth noting now:
See the latest Sky Sports TV selections [EFL] The EFL and Sky Sports have confirmed the latest broadcast selections between 6 March 2026 and 11 March 2026.
Selections for matches will now be announced weekly based on a four-week rolling basis, for example, next week’s announcement will cover the period around the weekend of 14 March.

Well, quite
From what I can see, after this Saturday’s game with Wycombe the following fixtures are ones those with SKY/NOW will get the option to watch on TV as they fall into the midweek games framework:
Tuesday 10 March - Mansfield Town (a)
Tuesday 17 March - Burton Albion (a)
4 weeks notice will be provided for any game specifically selected for coverage and we have had no further selections to date, would suggest the visit of Cardiff on April 18 is the most likely to get selected.
After that I reckon the most likely remaining Reading fixtures to get coverage are the two Easter games as SKY provided general coverage of the Boxing Day fixtures so may well do the same again for everyone’s games. Presume this will be revealed around 4 weeks before they are due to be played. The 2 games concerned are:
Friday 3 April - Huddersfield Town (a)
Monday 6 April - Lincoln City (h)
That leaves the last fixture of the season (below) and Sky have provided coverage of these fixtures in previous seasons so may well do so again.
Saturday 2 May - Blackpool (h)
Tuesday 10 March - Mansfield Town (a)
Tuesday 17 March - Burton Albion (a)

Realised our home game against Wigan on the 28th March falls on an international break. I'd be surprised if that's called off though.
Without looking at which teams are actually playing, our players who may be away are: Andy Rinohmota and Tivonge Rushesha (Zimbabwe); Mamadi Camara (Guinea-Bissau); Kadan Young (England youth). I think Basil Tuma (Malta) is scheduled to be back too.
Wigan only have James Carragher (Malta) as a current international.

Plymouth (H) remains Saturday, 14th March 3pm KO. Not been selected for TV coverage.

If Doncaster beat Stockport in the Vertu Trophy semi final, our match with them on the 11th April will be rearranged as it clashes with the final.

And only 3 weeks until the end of the season from that point as well.
RG30 Mansfield Town (A) rearranged for Tuesday, 10th March 7:45pm KO.
This date may yet be moved back( maybe just a day) depending on when Mansfield are asked to play their FA Cup match. If they draw a big team they could easily be told to play Sunday or Monday.
Mind you we were forced to play our FA Cup quarterfinal against Bradford 48 hours after playing Watford.

Mansfield have drawn Arsenal at home so I'd imagine that will be the prime Sunday 430 game.....so on TNT where no one can watch it.
Don't see why our game can't be moved to the Wednesday.
Arsenal will be involved in UCL that midweek so I imagine they and the other UCL teams won’t be scheduled for any FA Cup matches on Sunday 8th or Monday 9th.
