Weston returned to winning ways against Melksham Town on the road last time out, where James Waite and Louis Britton strikes in the second half saw Weston continue their preparations for the 25/26 season.

Callum Wood could face his former side after departing Ashton Gate this summer, while former Robins prospects Sam Pearson and Britton will look to effect the game in the final third against the current youngsters in BS3.

Bristol City U21s have played two pre-season games themselves this summer, losing 3 – 1 to Wolverhampton Wanderers U21s before beating Oxford United U21s 2 – 1.

Raphael Araoye, who has had two loan spells with the Seagulls over the last two campaigns, has been a regular with the Robins first-team this pre-season while also getting a run-out in their U21 matches.

ID Checks

We may ask to see ID at the turnstiles to ensure supporters have purchased the correct type of ticket. This is to ensure fairness for all fans.

If we believe a ticket has been purchased incorrectly or is being misused, we reserve the right to refuse entry and disable a matchday ticket or season ticket without refund.

Parking Information

We have a fair-sized car park at the stadium, with a limited amount of matchday parking available for Blue Badge holders. If a Blue Badge space is required, we recommend arriving as early as possible to secure a spot.

Due to visiting teams typically arriving in cars for pre-season fixtures, the Season Ticket Holders’ Car Park will not be available. However, season ticket holders can still park for free by showing their season ticket at the main car park entrance.

Once the stadium car park is full on matchday, all supporters are asked to park responsibly in the two nearby industrial estates, which are just a 5–10-minute walk from the Optima Stadium. Please do not park in the housing estate opposite the club, as this can cause issues for local residents.

Please note that we are only able to accommodate the official away team coach within the Optima Stadium.

Programmes

Matchday programmes will not be available for any of our pre-season friendlies. However, they will return at the start of the National League South season, where they will be 100% digital and free of charge to all supporters.
