Bristol City form and stats

Playing away, Bristol City have won 1 game, drawn 2 and suffered 2 defeats in the Championship this season.

Bristol City lost away at Norwich City (2-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Until that loss this side had taken at least a draw from six league fixtures in a row. Attacker Conway got a player rating of 7.13 in the game. "Man of the match" Conway scored one goal and hit one key pass.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Blackburn Rovers at their stadium, the result 3-2.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Bristol City playing away, we found 6 games. Results were 3 away wins, 1 draw and 2 home wins.

Bristol have conceded 11 goals in these games.
