Royals skipper wary of Wigan Athletic threat

Paul Cook's men are third bottom in the Championship table - two points adrift of safety - with 12 matches remaining.

But after picking up 11 points from their last six matches, Moore knows Reading will be in for a tough game.

"It's a big, big game," said Moore. "They can't be underestimated.

"We know the situation they're in, and it'll be a really tough game again.

"They're fighting for their lives, we know exactly how that feels, so we need to be ready.

"We can't take our foot off the pedal, we do need to kick on.

"We cannot be shocked by anything on Wednesday night.

"They're going to come at us, they're going to be fired up, and we need to be the same - because it's a game that we need to win."
