Bristol City 1-0 Derby County

Current streaks

Recent form

Bristol City

Bristol City have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, currently sitting 10th in the Championship with 33 points from 24 games. The Robins have been difficult to beat, losing only once in their last six matches, with two wins and three draws rounding out their recent results. Their defensive solidity is noteworthy, conceding just six goals in these six games and keeping two clean sheets. However, their attack has been somewhat inconsistent, scoring eight goals in total but failing to find the net in two matches. The 3-0 victory over Portsmouth stands out as their most convincing performance, being the only high-scoring game in this period. Bristol City's ability to grind out results is evident, with 67% of their recent matches featuring under 2.5 goals, suggesting they are involved in tight, low-scoring affairs more often than not.

Derby County

Derby County's recent form has been inconsistent, with the Rams struggling to find consistency in the Championship. They have alternated between wins and losses in their last five matches, failing to secure back-to-back victories. The standout result in this run was a convincing 4-0 home win against Portsmouth, which represents their highest-scoring game in the period. Defensively, Derby have been somewhat porous, conceding in four of their last six matches, including a 4-2 defeat to Sheffield Wednesday in their most recent outing. Despite their mid-table position, the Rams have been involved in relatively high-scoring affairs, with 67% of their last six games featuring over 2.5 goals. Their goal difference remains positive over this stretch, but their inability to string together positive results has likely contributed to their current 16th place standing in the league table.

Recent home/away form

Bristol City

Bristol City have shown impressive form at home recently, with a current three-match unbeaten run, including two consecutive victories. The Robins have been particularly strong defensively, keeping clean sheets in three of their last six home fixtures, including a notable 4-0 thrashing of Plymouth Argyle. Their recent goal-scoring prowess is evident, netting 10 times in six games, with an average of 1.67 goals per match. Despite a brief dip in form with back-to-back losses against Burnley and Sheffield United, City have bounced back strongly, conceding only once in their last three home outings. The team's defensive solidity is further highlighted by their low goals conceded per game average of 0.67, which has undoubtedly contributed to their climb to 10th position in the Championship table.

Derby County

Derby County's recent away form has been concerning, with the Rams struggling to find consistency on their travels. They are currently on a three-game winless run away from home, having lost their last two matches against Sheffield Wednesday and Luton Town. Their only victory in the last six away fixtures came against Coventry City, where they managed a 2-1 win. Defensively, Derby have been vulnerable, conceding an average of 1.67 goals per game and keeping just one clean sheet in their last six away matches. The 4-2 defeat to Sheffield Wednesday stands out as a particularly high-scoring encounter, contributing to Derby's negative goal difference of -4 on the road. Despite their struggles, the Rams have managed to find the back of the net in four of their last six away games, with both teams scoring in 67% of these matches. However, their current form has left them languishing in 16th position in the Championship table.
