Ingimarsson wary of Spurs threat

Ivar Ingimarsson

Reading's Ivar Ingimarsson is warning his team-mates not to expect Tottenham to be a push-over on Saturday.

Spurs appear to have little to play for, while Reading are fighting for Premier League survival, just one point clear of the relegation zone.

Ingimarsson told BBC Radio Berkshire he doubts Spurs will be demotivated and that he expects them to be dangerous.

He said: "They can go out there on Saturday and play their best football without any worries."

After Saturday's 0-0 with Wigan Athletic, Reading remain 17th in the Premier League.

"If we go down, we only have ourselves to blame, but I honestly believe that we will still be in the Premier League next season."

But Ingimarsson denied that the Reading players will be nervous going into their final home match on Saturday.

"The simple thing is that we have our backs to the wall and the only thing you can do now is to compete," he said.

"I don't think it helps to worry, we just have to go out and play.

"We don't have many games to go. There's no rehearsal - we have two games and we have to perform well whoever we're playing and I'm confident we can get the results.

"Things are still in our own hands. If we go down, we only have ourselves to blame, but I honestly believe that we will still be in the Premier League next season."
