17/12/2022 6:00 pm
EFL Championship will see Bristol City go head to head with Stoke City this weekend at Ashton Gate Stadium in the 23rd round of the competition. Match day schedules for December 17 at 18:00 EAT.
The home team is 16th in the table with 27 points after the 22 matches they have played so far. Coming into this game, Bristol City put to an end their five-match winless run last time out and boss Nigel Pearson is unlikely to make changes to the team that outplayed the Millers at the weekend.

In that game, Bristol City had 45% possession, nine shots with four of them on target and goals scored by Joe Williams (30′) and Cameron Pring (73′). Rotherham United got 16 with five of them on target and goals by Wes Harding (14′ OG) and Chiedozie Ogbene (25′).
Stoke City on the other side are two places and one point below Saturday’s hosts and will be looking to grab all the three points after going winless in their last two matches. Coming into this game, lost three of their last six matches, winning two and drawing in one.
In their previous encounter, Stoke City held each other to 2-2 Championship stalemate versus Cardiff City in their most recent fixture.
