This Championship matchday 14 fixture sees 18th-placed Oxford United play host to third-placed Stoke City on Tuesday. Can the Yellows edge the Potters for a stronger cushion from the looming relegation battle? Here is our prediction for the match.
Oxford United narrowly escaped a home defeat to Millwall in their last match. The Yellows came from behind twice to hold the visitors to a 2-2 draw, thanks to Przemyslaw Placheta's stoppage-time equalizer.
This result has left them 18th in the standings with 13 points – four above the drop zone. Meanwhile, two of their last three home matches have ended with under 2.5 goals, including their previous two encounters with Stoke City.
After their matchday 11 defeat to Millwall in London, Stoke City have bounced back strongly, winning their following two matches to stay in the race for a top-two finish. The Potters climbed to third in the table with 24 points – one behind second-placed Middlesbrough – after demolishing Bristol City 5-1 in their last match.
However, most of their recent games have been low-scoring affairs. Nine of their last 10 matches ended with under 2.5 goals, including their last five away fixtures. Hence, our prediction for a likely low-scoring contest.
