Oxford United host Bristol City in a Championship<\/a> clash that could prove pivotal at both ends of the table. The visitors arrive in stronger form, boasting a sharper attack and a far more resilient defence, while Oxford are still searching for consistency and defensive solidity. Kick-off is 3:00pm at Kassam Stadium, with Oxford desperate for points to aid their survival fight, and Bristol City pushing to keep their play-off ambitions alive.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both Teams to Score \u2013 Yes<\/strong><\/td>\n8\/11 @ Bet365<\/a>
(57.9%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nOxford may be struggling, but they\u2019ve scored in three of the last four head-to-heads and average one goal per game. Bristol City\u2019s attack is consistent, and Oxford\u2019s leaky defence means both could easily find the net.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n
