Oxford makes a trip to Stoke in the Championship on Saturday lunchtime. The Potters are in 19th in the standings while the U's are 14th. Let's dig into the match to find a prediction.

It has been a frustratingly inconsistent season from Stoke. They are in a precarious position, just two points above the relegation zone with just a single win in their last 15 games in all competitions, 14 of those in the league.

That sole win did come at home to Sunderland, however, the team who currently occupy 4th spot in the league. They have limited the losses at the bet365 Stadium but have failed to pick up enough wins. 

One win in 13 away games this season has been a poor return from Oxford. That success came at Millwall on New Year's Day. Heading into that game, they had lost five straight on the road without scoring a goal.

The turn of the year has been much more positive for Oxford from a travelling point of view. Their other two away games in the league have seen them pick up points at Preston and Plymouth.

Our Stoke vs Oxford United Prediction

This is a trappy game. Neither of these sides has a strong winning record this season, but Stoke are only a few weeks removed from beating Sunderland here and Oxford are unbeaten in three straight away games.

It may well be that these two teams cancel one another out. There have not been many goals in Stoke's recent home games, nor in those Oxford have played away from home. Oxford won the reverse fixture 1-0 earlier in the season. As such, our Stoke vs Oxford prediction is for under 2.5 goals.
