The Bees are looking to maintain their run in towards their target of a top 2 finish in order to secure a home play-off semi-final in September, and a win tonight would make it their 7th consecutive Elite League victory.
The teams for tonight are likely to be as follows with Olly Allen possibly not riding due to a shoulder injury.
BUILDBASE BEES: Scott Nicholls, Olly Allen R/R, Rory Schlein, Martin Smolinski, Chris Harris, Billy Janniro, Steve Johnston.
READING: Matej Zagar, Krzysztof Buczkowski, Janusz Kolodziej, Mark Lemon, Travis McGowan, Jonas Davidsson, Sam Simota.
As a reminder the current Elite League table shows the Bees in 3rd place but with 2 matches in hand over 2nd placed Poole Pirates.
