Reading midfielder Jay Tabb believes that the 1-0 defeat in Burnley did not change the play-off tie as an elusive home win was always needed.

Tabb tasted play-off defeat during his time with Brentford but is confident that he can come out on top this time around.

He said: "We always had to win at home and that hasn't changed.

"People have asked about our home record but it's just no concern. Forget what's happened before, this is a great opportunity to get to Wembley. If we win 2-0 we're there.

"I've played in play-off games before and there's not always much football played, it can be about passion and heart and we matched them for that.

"The penalty was hard to take but nobody is too down. Now we'll recover well and do the business at home."
