Recent form
Bristol City
Bristol City's recent form has been concerning, with the team struggling to find consistency. They are currently on a two-game losing streak in the Championship, having suffered 3-0 defeats to both Blackburn Rovers and Derby County. Their last six games across all competitions have yielded just one win, two draws, and three losses. The standout match was a high-scoring 4-3 victory over Millwall, which accounts for two-thirds of their total goals scored in this period. Defensively, Bristol City has been vulnerable, conceding an average of two goals per game and failing to keep a clean sheet in their last six matches. Their goal difference of -6 and position of 17th in the league table further highlight their difficulties, with the team struggling to find a balance between attack and defense.
Oxford United
Oxford United's recent form shows a mixed bag of results, with a notable upturn in their last two league games. They've won their last two Championship matches, scoring four goals and conceding just one, which has helped them climb to 7th in the table. Despite a three-game losing streak in mid-August, including a League Cup exit to Coventry City, the team has shown resilience by bouncing back with consecutive wins. Their goal-scoring record is solid, averaging 1.5 goals per game, while their defense has been relatively tight, conceding 1.17 goals per game. Interestingly, half of their recent matches have seen both teams score, and there's an even split between games going over and under 2.5 goals. The 3-2 loss to Coventry City stands out as a particularly high-scoring affair in this period.

Recent home/away form
Bristol City
Bristol City's recent home form presents a mixed picture with some interesting highlights. While they've managed to remain unbeaten in their last three competitive home matches, their results have been varied, including a win, a draw, and a loss in the League Cup. The standout game was undoubtedly their high-scoring 4-3 victory over Millwall in the Championship, showcasing their offensive capabilities. However, their goal-scoring has been inconsistent, with two clean sheets in their last six home games balanced against the seven-goal thriller. Their overall goal difference of +3 and average of 2.5 total goals per game suggest an entertaining team to watch at home, with a tendency for matches to be closely contested.
Oxford United
Oxford United's recent away form shows a concerning trend, with the team currently on a four-game losing streak in competitive matches. This run includes defeats in the League Cup and Championship, as well as a pre-season friendly loss. Their last away victory came in a friendly against Solihull Moors, where they won convincingly 3-0. Notably, Oxford United has struggled defensively in their recent competitive away games, conceding multiple goals in each of their last two Championship matches. The 3-2 loss to Coventry City stands out as a particularly high-scoring affair. Despite their current away struggles, Oxford United's overall league position (7th) and points tally (9 from 5 games) suggest better performances at home. The team's goal-scoring ability remains decent, averaging 1.5 goals per game over their last six matches, but their defensive record away from home appears to be a key area for improvement.
