Recent form

Burnley

Burnley have been in impressive form recently, showcasing a solid unbeaten run that extends to 18 games without a defeat. Their last six matches have yielded three wins and three draws, demonstrating consistency and resilience. The Clarets have been particularly strong defensively, conceding only one goal in their last six games and keeping five clean sheets. Their attacking prowess was on full display in a high-scoring 5-0 victory against Plymouth Argyle, which stands out as their most convincing win in this period. Burnley's goal-scoring average of 1.5 goals per game, coupled with their miserly defence conceding just 0.17 goals per game, has resulted in a positive goal difference of 8. Their current third-place position in the Championship table, with 57 points from 29 games, reflects their solid performances, with two-thirds of their recent matches featuring under 2.5 goals, indicating a trend towards tighter, more defensive contests.

Oxford United

Oxford United have shown resilience in recent matches, remaining unbeaten in their last five league games. The U's have displayed a solid defensive record, keeping two clean sheets and conceding just four goals in their last five Championship fixtures. Their most recent outing, a 1-1 draw with Bristol City, extended their unbeaten run in the league. Oxford's last defeat came in the FA Cup, where they suffered a 3-1 loss to Exeter City. The team's most impressive result in this period was a thrilling 3-2 victory over Luton Town, which stands out as the highest-scoring match in their recent run. Despite their current 16th position in the table, Oxford United's recent form suggests they are gradually improving, with two wins and three draws in their last five league games demonstrating a newfound consistency.

Recent home/away form

Burnley

Burnley have displayed a remarkable defensive resilience in their recent home fixtures, with four clean sheets in their last six games at Turf Moor. The Clarets have been particularly difficult to break down, conceding only two goals during this period, averaging a miserly 0.33 goals conceded per game. However, their attacking output has been somewhat muted, with just three goals scored across these six matches. A notable run of three consecutive 0-0 draws in their most recent home games highlights their defensive solidity but also underscores their struggle to find the back of the net. The majority of Burnley's recent home encounters have been low-scoring affairs, with 83% of these matches seeing under 2.5 goals. Despite the lack of victories, with only one win in six, Burnley's ability to avoid defeat has been crucial in maintaining their 3rd position in the Championship table.

Oxford United

Oxford United's recent away form has been a mixed bag, with the team showing resilience but struggling to find consistent success on the road. The U's have managed just one win in their last six away fixtures, drawing three and losing two. Their goal-scoring output has been a concern, netting only four times in these six matches, averaging a mere 0.67 goals per game. Defensively, they've been somewhat porous, conceding nine goals, including a heavy 4-0 defeat to Leeds United. However, Oxford have shown an ability to grind out results, securing three draws and two clean sheets in this period. The team's matches have tended to be low-scoring affairs, with 67% of their away games featuring under 2.5 goals. Despite their struggles, Oxford have managed to stay competitive in most matches, with half of their games seeing both teams score.
