Swansea City vs Oxford United Prediction and Betting Tips | December 6th 2025

Swansea City lock horns with Oxford United on Saturday on matchday 19 of the EFL Championship. Both sides are languishing in the bottom half of the points table as the season approaches its midway point.

Vitor Matos' Swansea are coming off a 3-2 defeat at West Bromwich Albion. The Swans were two goals to the good inside 12 minutes, but West Brom scored three times without reply after the break to turn the game on its head.

Following a fifth straight defeat, the Swans have dropped to 21st in the points table, ahead of Portsmouth in the relegation zone on goal difference, with 17 points from 18 matches, winning four.

Meanwhile, Gary Rowett's Oxford are fresh off a 2-1 home win over Ipswich Town. Leif Davis canceled out Mark Harris' 24th-minute opener for Oxford in the second period. But the U's had the last laugh, with Przemyslaw Placheta's 77th-minute winner snapping a five-game winless run.

The victory lifted Rowett's side out of the relegation zone, into 20th, with 18 points from as many outings, winning four.

On that note, here's a look at the head-to-head stats and key numbers, match prediction, and betting tips for the Swansea-Oxford Championship clash at the Swansea.com Stadium.

Swansea City vs Oxford United prediction

Both sides have struggled this campaign, especially Swansea, whose seven-game winless run (six losses) has pushed them to the brink of the relegation zone, while Oxford have failed to build on their positives from last season.

In terms of the head-to-head record, the U's hold a very narrow advantage, but recent meetings have been mixed. However, Oxford have won just twice in nine road outings this season.

While the Swans aren't in the best of form, especially at home, they could force a share of the spoils.
