Stoke vs Bristol City Match Preview

Stoke lost 2-1 at Birmingham just before the international break for their third successive defeat and the fifth in their last six. Nathan Jones is a manager under pressure after just one point from six games and he must hope his board stay patient as they have the toughest looking schedule of any side in the division over the next six.

At the Bet365 Stadium, the Potters have suffered home defeats to Leeds and QPR while picking up a point against Derby. All three of these fixtures have gone over 2.5 goals and produced a total of ten goals combined.

Bristol City drew 2-2 with Middlesbrough in their fixture prior to the break which ended a three-game winning run but put them unbeaten in four. They sit fifth in the table and now face four bottom-half sides in their next six so will hope to climb further.

Away from Ashton Gate, the Robins have won two successive games with victories at Derby and Hull and a draw at Birmingham means they are unbeaten on the road. All three of their road games have seen both teams score and two of them have gone over 2.5 goals the other was a 1-1 draw.

Bookmakers make the home side to win this fixture which even allowing for home advantage seems a little strange. We could not put anyone off the visitors and the draw in the double chance but are happy enough to get with the Robins in goal markets. All three visitors to this stadium have gone over 1.5 goals and given the goal threat City carry we think they can do so here. Back them to do so and then have a little interest on them to go over 2.5 goals.
