Derby County will head to Ashton Gate for their latest Sky Bet Championship clash, against Bristol City, on Saturday (3pm kick-off).
The Rams will be looking to return to winning ways when they head south-west after falling to a 4-2 defeat against Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough in their last outing on New Year's Day.
Liam Manning's Robins side will be buoyed by a healthy return of seven points from their last three games coming into Saturday's fixture, with home wins over Luton Town and Portsmouth and a draw at Plymouth Argyle over the festive period.
Derby were 3-0 winners at Pride Park Stadium when the sides met earlier in the season, thanks to goals from Kenzo Goudmijn, Kayden Jackson and David Ozoh.
