Current streaks

Recent form

Oxford United

Oxford United have been experiencing a remarkable run of draws, with five consecutive stalemates in their last six matches. This streak of draws has been punctuated only by their most recent defeat against Sunderland. Despite their mid-table position, the U's have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring just 5 goals in their last 6 games, with an average of 0.83 goals per match. Defensively, they've been relatively solid, conceding 7 goals in this period. The team's inability to secure victories is evident, as they haven't won in their last 7 games. Interestingly, 83% of their recent matches have seen under 2.5 goals, suggesting a trend towards low-scoring affairs. Their last clean sheet came 5 games ago, indicating room for improvement in their defensive capabilities. Despite these challenges, Oxford United have shown resilience, managing to avoid defeat in 5 out of their last 6 matches.

Swansea

Swansea City are currently enduring a challenging period, having failed to secure a victory in their last six Championship matches. The Swans have managed to collect just three points from a possible 18, with three draws and three losses in this stretch. Their goalscoring form has been particularly concerning, netting just once in these six games, resulting in a meagre average of 0.17 goals per match. Defensively, they've fared slightly better, conceding only four goals and keeping two clean sheets. However, the lack of offensive output has led to a negative goal difference of -3. A notable statistic is that all of Swansea's last six matches have seen under 2.5 goals, highlighting a trend of low-scoring affairs. With their current 17th position in the league table, the Welsh side will be eager to end their six-game winless run and rediscover their scoring touch to climb away from the lower reaches of the Championship.

Recent home/away form

Oxford United

Oxford United have shown impressive resilience at home, remaining unbeaten in their last six matches at the Kassam Stadium. The U's have displayed a solid defensive record, conceding just three goals in these games and keeping three clean sheets. Their most recent form shows a run of three consecutive wins followed by three draws, suggesting a consistent but slightly declining trend. The standout result was a 3-1 victory over Preston, which was the highest-scoring game in this period. While Oxford's attack has been relatively modest, averaging 1.33 goals per game, their defensive stability is noteworthy, with 83% of these matches seeing under 2.5 goals. This home form has contributed significantly to their mid-table position in the Championship, demonstrating their ability to compete at this level.

Swansea

Swansea's recent away form has been rather poor, with the Swans struggling to find the back of the net on their travels. The Welsh side have lost four of their last six away matches, with a solitary win against Coventry City and a goalless draw at Sheffield Wednesday breaking up a concerning run of defeats. Notably, Swansea are currently on a three-match goalless streak away from home, having failed to score in their last three away fixtures. Their defensive record has been somewhat better, conceding only five goals in six away games, but the lack of attacking prowess is evident with just two goals scored in that period. The majority of Swansea's away matches have been low-scoring affairs, with 83% of these games seeing under 2.5 goals, suggesting a cautious approach on the road.
