Burton Albion - Oxford United predictions and free betting tips [06/04/2024]

English football is a must-watch spectacle, offering emotional experiences and vivid memories, piquing the interest of even those not traditionally drawn to football. On 6th April in League One, England's third-tier league, Burton Albion will clash with Oxford United at the Pirelli Stadium. Let's look at the team conditions and try to make a decision that will help boost our bank.

Burton Albion

For the team, this is already the 6th season in a row in League One. Yet, before this, they performed quite well in League Two, clinching a victory, and finishing second in the next season, earning a promotion to the Championship. It was quite impressive. But after spending two years in the second division, the team returned to their current tournament. Last year, Burton ended up with average results, only securing the 15th position in the league table.

At present, they occupy the 20th position in the championship. In the 37th round, the team lost to Portsmouth (1:2). The following round saw the team lose by a narrow margin against Exeter City. After that, they suffered a defeat against Port Vale (0:1). Then, they drew with Wigan Athletic (1:1). And in their last game, Albion lost to Barnsley at home with a score of (1:3).

Oxford United

In the old days, the team was pretty good, but then they experienced a decline and only in the early 21st century were they able to return to League Two. After eight seasons, they were promoted and are now set for another season in League One. In the previous season, they managed to avoid relegation by securing the 19th position.

Currently, Oxford United stands in the 7th position in the league table. In the 37th round, they managed to pull off a victory against Cheltenham Town with a score of (2:1). The following game saw them suffer a considerable defeat from Bolton Wanderers (0:5). After that, Oxford won against Port Vale with a score of (2:0). They then drew with Shrewsbury Town (1:1). In their last round, they managed to triumph over Fleetwood Town with a bold score of (4:0).

Head-to-Head

The latest encounter between Burton and Oxford United happened on 16th December 2023. That match ended in a victory for Oxford with a score of (3:0).

Prediction

In their recent matches, Oxford has again started to win. However, Burton is currently on a streak of failures. In their last 5 matches, they suffered 4 defeats, as such, even on their home ground, they can hardly guarantee any points. I'm daring enough to bet on a victory for the visiting team in the upcoming match.

Over/Under Prediction

In this confrontation, I believe the teams can, and will, produce a high scoring game. Therefore, my suggestion would be to place a bet on over 2.5 goals.
