Bristol City are yet to taste defeat in the Championship, and they will be facing winless Oxford United in matchday five action. The Sunday match finds hosts Bristol third in the standings while Oxford are 22nd. We have a prediction below.
Bristol had their low moment in the elimination from the League Cup by Premier League side Fulham. After that 2-0 defeat, they’ve gone on to win two straight matches and scored seven times.
The latest of them was away to Sheffield Wednesday, which they won 3-0. In their last home match, Bristol posted a 4-2 win and look set to extend their undefeated run against Oxford United.
Oxford United haven't beaten Bristol in their last three meetings. Going by Oxford’s form this season, that winless run against their hosts might extend past this match.
The Yellows have also failed to post a win in the Championship so far this season. In their seven matches in 2025/26, they have suffered four defeats, and their only win and clean sheet was in the League Cup, a 1-0 win against Colchester.
Twice in their last outing, they came from a winning position to eventually draw 2-2 with Leicester City. It was their second such result, after earlier losing 6-0 to Brighton in the League Cup.
