What a battle this should prove to be.
1st v 4th.
The two best defences in League Two go head to head. With us undefeated in 6 at The hall.
Oxford on the road have been a bit up and down - P8 W4 D1 L3 F8 A7. But you only have to look at their goals For and Against to realise that they are a bloody tough nut to crack. Only Morecambe have conceeded less goals than them on the road so far.
Oxford are 3rd in the form table (last 8 games) just behind Creepy and us of course. P8 W5 D2 L1 F15 A5. Which further emphasises what a tough game this could be.
They also have the best 1st half record in League Two. Of the 16 games played, they have gone in for their half-time oranges leading in 12 of them. Drawing in 2 and losing in 2. So clearly very strong out of the blocks. On the other hand they are not so strong in the 2nd half. Winning 3, drawing 8 and losing 5. Only Plymouth and Dagenham have performed worse in the 2nd half so far this season. So perhaps something we can take advantage of, as the game goes on...
Top scorer is James Constable with 7.
So, how do you see this one going?
