West Ham have a clear path to win a European competition and dream of returning to the UEFA Europa League while staying on course in the Premier League.

West Ham has a squad to be in the top 7 of the Premier League, the problem will be again the rotations in the competitions.
Reading is a modest team that can be in mid-table in the Championship without any problem.

The stadium where the match will be played is Madejski Stadium in the city of Reading, has a capacity of 24,161 spectators and was inaugurated in 1998.

The Hammers must have a change in their squad structure if they are to dream of anything more than a European place.
West Ham managed to make the step from being a team that was relegated or struggling to stay in the division, to having a European place and earning more money.

If we talk about West Ham, we must undoubtedly point to Michael Antonio as one of the main reasons why the London team has had good results in recent seasons.
The Jamaican continues to be the only striker of the team and we will be watching to see if someone comes in to support him during the season where they will have Premier League and UEFA Conference League.  

Shane Long returns as a great veteran to Reading after his spell at Southampton last season where he got plenty of minutes and even played a direct part in some goals with assists.
Long will look to command a Reading attack that failed to score as many goals last season.

Soccer in the old continent continues to play friendly matches in preparation for the next season, which will be completely strange due to the mid-season pattern when the Qatar 2022 World Cup will be played.
West Ham will be looking for a place in the Champions League next year and Reading wants to dream of promotion to the Premier League. 

Reading were miraculously saved last season from relegation to England's third division, as they finished the 21-22 Championship campaign in 21st position with 41 points, just 4 points away from relegation.
Reading managed to stay in the division and the goal for the next campaign is to stay in the second division with more calm and dream of a chance of promotion.

The London team achieved another great season, as they finished in the last stages of the UEFA Europa League and once again managed to finish in the European zone in the Premier League.
David Moyes will have to learn from last season and look for ways to rotate his squad so that they can endure a long campaign.

Two English teams meet in a friendly match with different objectives, as Reading will be looking for a better result in the Championship while West Ham will have to prepare for the Premier League and the UEFA Europa Conference League.
