Current streaks

Recent form

Bristol City

Bristol City's recent form has been inconsistent, with the team currently experiencing a two-game losing streak. The Robins have managed just two wins in their last six matches, demonstrating a struggle for consistency. Despite their mixed results, Bristol City have shown defensive resilience, conceding only 0.83 goals per game over this period and keeping two clean sheets. Their away form has been particularly noteworthy, with an impressive 2-0 victory at Norwich and a 3-1 win at Preston standing out as high-scoring performances. However, the team have struggled in front of goal at home, failing to score in two of their last three matches at Ashton Gate. The low-scoring nature of their recent fixtures is reflected in the fact that 67% of their last six games have seen under 2.5 goals, suggesting a trend towards tighter, more defensive encounters.

Plymouth Argyle

Plymouth Argyle's recent form has been mixed, with their last six games yielding one win, three draws, and two losses. The Pilgrims have struggled defensively, conceding a concerning 15 goals in their last six matches, with a particularly heavy 6-1 defeat to Norwich in their most recent outing. This high-scoring affair contributed significantly to their average of 2.5 goals conceded per game. Despite their defensive woes, Argyle have shown some attacking promise, scoring in five of their last six matches and participating in several high-scoring encounters, including a 3-3 draw with Preston. Their current 20th position in the Championship table reflects their inconsistent form, with the team struggling to string together a run of positive results. Notably, Argyle have kept only one clean sheet in this period, highlighting an area for improvement as they look to climb away from the relegation zone.

Recent home/away form

Bristol City

Bristol City's recent home form has been underwhelming, with the Robins failing to secure a victory in their last five matches at Ashton Gate. The team have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring only four goals in their previous six home fixtures, with an average of just 0.67 goals per game. Defensively, they've been somewhat more solid, conceding five goals and keeping two clean sheets during this period. The Robins have shown a tendency for low-scoring affairs, with 67% of their recent home matches featuring under 2.5 goals. Notably, Bristol City have drawn three consecutive home games, highlighting their difficulty in turning draws into wins. While they've managed to avoid heavy defeats, their lack of goalscoring prowess has been a significant factor in their recent home struggles.

Plymouth Argyle

Plymouth Argyle's recent away form has been abysmal, with the team enduring a five-match losing streak on the road. Their defensive woes are particularly alarming, having conceded a staggering 17 goals in their last six away games, including two heavy defeats: a 6-1 thrashing at Norwich and a 5-0 drubbing by Cardiff City. The Pilgrims have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of these matches and have managed to score only twice, averaging a mere 0.33 goals per game. Their goal difference of -15 over this period highlights the extent of their struggles, with half of their away games featuring over 2.5 goals. Plymouth's dire away form is undoubtedly contributing to their precarious 20th position in the Championship, and they will need to address their defensive frailties and lack of attacking prowess if they hope to improve their fortunes on the road.
