Bristol Rovers form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Bristol Rovers's two home games so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Memorial Stadium. Bristol Rovers has recorded two wins in a row here at Memorial Stadium, increasing their hopes of victory in this match.

Bristol Rovers's last game was hosting Tranmere Rovers and winning 2-0. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-2 away at Coventry City.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Bristol Rovers as they have a new game in only three days, a Carabao Cup match thankfully also at home. Brighton & Hove Albion are visiting.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Bristol Rovers at home. 2 on target and 0 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Oxford United form and stats

The season is young and Oxford United have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 2 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 1 defeat so far.

The manager K. Robinson was unhappy after their last game, a League One match played at their home ground Memorial Stadium. Oxford United suffered a 2-4 loss to Burton Albion. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Blackpool wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

After this away game Oxford United return home for a Carabao Cup game against Millwall. That game is only three sleeps after this.

It's early days yet, but Oxford United has scored 2 and conceded 3 goals from their travels so far (2 games).

Head 2 Head

Bristol Rovers-Oxford United H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Bristol Rovers 6 wins, Oxford United 2 wins, 2 draws. 3 of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
