Goal Statistics

Bristol City's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday lunch time, not least because Stoke City have conceded in each of their last 5 Championship outings. A PG of 1.5 for R. Hodgson's side suggests that run should continue.

Goals have been an issue for Stoke City of late. It has been 5 Championship matches since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.2 suggests they'll have problems ending that run on Saturday lunch time against Bristol City.
