Match Facts

Bristol City won this exact fixture last season 2-0, but haven’t won back-to-back home league games against Stoke since March 1959.
Stoke have won three of their last five league meetings with Bristol City (D1 L1), more than their previous nine beforehand (W2 D1 L6).
Bristol City have only won their final league game in one of the last 10 seasons (D3 L6), winning 2-0 at QPR in 2022-23.
Stoke City have only lost their final league game in one of the last 14 seasons (W8 D5), losing 2-0 at Watford in 2022-23.
Stoke are guaranteed to have a bottom half finish in the Championship for an eighth consecutive season – since 2018-19, they are one of eight ever-present Championship teams and they have the fewest points of those eight (448).
