Stoke City have won just one of their last seven league games against Oxford United (D3 L3), a 4-0 home win in September 2000 in the third tier.
After winning the reverse fixture 1-0 in September, Oxford United will be looking to produce a first league double over Stoke City since the 1989-90 season.
Stoke have lost just two of their last 11 home league games (W3 D6) and will be looking to keep three clean sheets in successive outings at the Bet365 Stadium in the same season for the first time since February 2023.
Oxford have won just one of their 13 away league games this season (D4 L8), with only Plymouth (0) winning fewer on the road in the Championship this term.
Rúben Rodrigues has scored four of Oxford United’ last seven away goals in the Championship. Overall his four goals on the road are twice as many as any other Oxford player.
