Oxford United 1-1 Millwall

Current streaks

Recent form

Oxford United

Oxford United are currently enduring a torrid run of form, having lost five of their last six matches in the Championship. The U's find themselves languishing in 18th position, with their recent performances characterised by defensive frailties and a lack of attacking potency. They are on a three-game losing streak, conceding a worrying 10 goals in the process. Particularly alarming was their recent 6-2 home drubbing at the hands of Middlesbrough, highlighting their vulnerability at the back. Oxford have managed just four goals in their last six outings, averaging a meagre 0.67 goals per game, whilst conceding at an alarming rate of 2.33 goals per match. Their sole clean sheet and victory in this period came in a narrow 1-0 win over Hull City, offering a glimmer of hope amidst an otherwise dismal run.

Millwall

Millwall have shown impressive form in their recent fixtures, boasting an unbeaten run of eight games. The Lions have been particularly solid defensively, conceding only two goals in their last six matches and keeping four clean sheets. Their current streak includes a remarkable run of four consecutive 1-0 victories, demonstrating their ability to grind out narrow wins. Despite their strong defensive record, Millwall's attack has been somewhat conservative, scoring exactly one goal in each of their last six games. This consistent scoreline has resulted in all six matches featuring under 2.5 goals, with both teams scoring in only 33% of these fixtures. Their recent form has propelled them to 8th position in the Championship, with 24 points from 16 games, showcasing their potential as play-off contenders if they can maintain this level of performance.

Recent home/away form

Oxford United

Oxford United's recent home form has been a mixed bag, with the team struggling to find consistency at their own ground. The U's have managed just one win in their last six home matches, drawing three and losing two. Notably, their most recent home game saw a particularly high-scoring affair, with Middlesbrough thrashing Oxford 6-2, which significantly impacted their goals conceded tally. Despite this defensive lapse, Oxford have shown some resilience, keeping two clean sheets in their last six home games. The team have been involved in several tight contests, with three consecutive 1-1 draws preceding their sole victory against Hull City. Oxford's goal-scoring record at home has been modest, averaging just one goal per game, while their defensive record has been somewhat shaky, conceding an average of 1.67 goals per match. The majority of Oxford's recent home fixtures (67%) have seen both teams score, suggesting their matches often provide entertainment for spectators.

Millwall

Millwall have shown remarkable defensive solidity in their recent away fixtures, with three clean sheets and only three goals conceded in their last six matches on the road. The Lions have been involved in a series of low-scoring affairs, with all six games featuring under 2.5 goals, highlighting their defensive prowess but also their struggle to find the back of the net. Their away form has been characterised by a high number of draws, with four of their last six matches ending in stalemates. Interestingly, Millwall have managed to avoid defeat in five of these six away games, demonstrating their resilience on their travels. However, their goalscoring output has been modest, averaging just 0.5 goals per game, which suggests they may need to improve their attacking productivity to convert more of these draws into wins and climb higher in the Championship table.
