Bristol Rovers vs Oxford United Predictions

• Oxford are unbeaten in their last five matches against Bristol Rovers
• Ten goals have been scored in the last two matches between these two sides
• Bristol Rovers have lost two of their three matches this season

Oxford fancied to extend unbeaten run

Oxford bounced back from opening day defeat at Derby with a cosy 1-0 win at home to Cambridge and Karl Robinson’s side followed that effort by beating Swansea on penalties in the Carabao Cup in midweek. Oxford are one of the favourites to make the play-offs having narrowly missed out last season and The Us are fancied to record their second league win of the campaign on Saturday, against a Bristol Rovers side who they are unbeaten against in five.

Early unrest in the Rovers camp 

Bristol Rovers have made a mixed start to the campaign. Opening day defeat against fellow promoted side Forest Green was followed by a 4-0 win away at Burton, ably assisted by a Burton red card in the 1^st minute. Rovers lost 1-0 in the cup on Tuesday to Crawley, following which boss Joey Barton was critical of some of his players – The Gas have lost two of their three matches so far this campaign and early signs suggest they won’t have things their own way this term.

Oxford to Win in the outright market will be the main selection for Saturday’s game, with a 2-1 away win forming the Correct Score prediction – both teams have scored in the last two meetings between these sides.
