Bristol City News and Form

Bristol City had their Championship winning streak snapped at seven. They lost 3-2 at leaders Norwich on the weekend. Now comes the test of being able to snap back or not. Their home form does stay strong though as they have won their last four league games at Ashton Gate. They are undefeated in seven at home now. So they are strong there and before that loss against Norwich they were undefeated in thirteen games (home and away) and that surely has to be taken into consideration.

Bristol City’s overall home record this season is W7 D5 L4. City have netted exactly two goals in each of their last three home games. They have averaged under a goal against at home this season in the Championship. They have only conceded twice in their last four home games as well (two clean sheets). City have taken a clean sheet in 25% of all of their home games. They currently boast the second-best defensive record in the entire league.

The last time that they were out on the road they recorded a 4-3 win at QPR. That is just the one loss in their last seven away games.
